The Jackson Sisters - I Believe In Miracles (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

Beverley Knight - Greatest Day (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

One of my festival weapons from the summer, now mastered and. released on Alpaca Edits.

REVIEW
For the first time since he shared an epic album's worth of 'lockdown edits' in December 2021, Pete Le Freq is back on Alpaca Edits with another red-hot selection of club-ready disco and boogie reworks. He first offers a smoothed-out, mixing-friendly take on a boogie-bass propelled disco number full of simmering strings and twinkling pianos ('Afraid To Freq'), before tweaking a more driving, electric piano-sporting disco number ('Infinity Now'). Those looking for a big dose of dancefloor energy should check the disco-funkin' excellence of 'Close To You', while 'Rescue Sybil' is a tastefully executed revision of a Sybil Thomas boogie classic with freshly metronomic drums.

Pete Le Freq - Keep On Dancin'

If ever there was someone who the phrase “How does he find time to make that?” was about, serial editor and remixer Pete Le Freq is it. His reworks have been played on BBC Radio 6 regularly by Craig Charles, and DJs the world over, and the sheer number of tracks he produces have caused people to suggest he doesn't sleep much.

Pete started producing over 12 years ago, and made a bit of noise with his house label Llama Farm Recordings. He's been remixed by Jay-J, Eric Kupper and Kenny Summit, appeared on compilations with Joey Negro and LCD Soundsystem, and played alongside  the likes of Crazy P, Inland Knights, CagedBaby and a few others. 

Since discovering the things he was sampling were better than the things he was making, Pete found that retouching and reworking the originals gave him his producing mojo back, and soon after Alpaca Edits was born. 

The York based edits label has since become home to disco superstars such as Dr Packer, Chuggin Edits, and Mannix. He’s been resident DJ at Sotano in York for the last 7 years, and this has fuelled his productions to greater heights. He’s known for playing 5 hour sets that incorporate both his new productions and others versions of serious disco action.

2019 has seen Pete get a vinyl release alongside the likes of Fingerman, Al Kent and Sleazy McQueen on Samosa Recordings, produce remixes for the likes of Hot Digits and Midnight Riot, as well as having 4 eps of his reworks on his own Alpaca Edits. He’s also debuted at Tramlines Festival in Sheffield, and made a return to rock the Toil Trees stage at Beatherder for the second year running. 

November saw him support Michael Gray and Fingerman at Distrikt in Leeds and Derek Kaye in York. The year ended with him beating the likes of Mousse T and Ray Mang in the Traxsource Nu-Disco Top 100 Artists of the year. 

Lockdown saw Pete go into rework overdrive, running a weekly Thursday night stream, as well as starting a regular show on Street Sounds Radio. He also worked with Ashley Slater of Freak Power on some original tracks.

2021 has seen the return of Pete’s That Needs An Edit nights in York, and will culminate in December with a guest slot from Shaka Loves You.
Roll on 2022!
