Released 3rd September
Formed in 1997, the group was originally made up of break dancers, bass guitarists and vocalists. Throw in guitar, drums and bass, along with co-founders Matt and Aston, and you have an exceptionally talented, raw, out-spoken outfit, who have been blowing up the dance scene for years with smash hits and legions of followers. They intend to do the very same with this amazing new album, which breathes a new lease of life into classic records in the way they’ve been edited and mixed.
They've included records from most of the genres that have inspired them over the years and they’re also chucked in a few of their current favs as well. So its time to get your airhorns out one last time and as the Ratpack’s Everson Allan could be heard shouting over the airwaves back in the day... jump around your coffee table…
With “A Different Story” the Freestylers deliver a blistering set joining the dots of the history of breakbeat….from electro to hardcore, to current favs with their own accapella's, samples and productions thrown in for good measure in this groundbreaking dj mix – listen & learn….and prepare to be amazed….
