Description:

Three decades in, Freerange Records doesn't look back — it expands. 30 Years Of Freerange Vol. 2 is the second instalment in a landmark five-EP series celebrating 30 years of one of underground house music's most beloved and enduring independent labels — 30 tracks from 30 artists, culminating in a beautiful boxset meticulously assembled to outlast trends, algorithms and short attention spans. A handpicked cross-section of the Freerange continuum, this volume brings six brand-new and exclusive tracks from a mix of label regulars and emerging voices pushing the sound somewhere new.

Aroop Roy kicks things off with 'We Are The People' — a brilliant slice of forward-looking deep house inspired by Detroit but with a distinct London twist, all loose groove, bouncing stabs and fat bass. Coflo follows by going straight for the jugular on the hotly tipped 'Unlocked' featuring Rawb Boss — tight, muscular rhythms, 303 flourishes and a punishing bassline bring peak-time energy, while soulful vocal hooks ensure it works across a wide range of sets. Closing the A-side, Fred Everything brings his signature deep and musical touch on 'Elysium', lush chords and a rolling bassline keeping the vibe uplifting and perfect for setting the mood on a warm-up.

Flipping over, Dutch duo Fouk deliver 'Moon' — doing what they do best with a hypnotic deep house workout of filtered stabs and euphoric strings. Freerange regular Matt Masters makes a long overdue return to the label with the sublime 'Everywhere At Once', introspective and melancholic, built on chopped piano and pad chords for those truly special dancefloor moments. Closing the EP in blissed-out, chilled fashion, South African producer Radic The Myth delivers the sun-soaked 'Forest Of White Trees' — emotive pads, arpeggiating synths and a mid-tempo stripped-back house groove combine for a sultry, summery gem that is the perfect final note.

Part of a wider celebration of Freerange Records' remarkable three-decade legacy, Vol. 2 is essential deep house vinyl, soulful house records and Afro house 12 inch vinyl for DJs, collectors and devoted fans of independent underground house music.

Perfect for DJs and collectors into deep house vinyl, soulful house 12 inch records, Afro house vinyl and the celebrated Freerange Records catalogue.
