compiled by original freestyler DJ Morpheus
the third yearly essay on the state of chill
consists exclusively of tracks specially created by
23 of today's finest techno, house, jungle & abstract hip hop
producers
Three things about Freezone 3:
1
Each of the participants has produced a new track exclusively for FZ3
(except for three of the pieces, which are exclusive remixes of
already-existing tunes). Consequentely the making of this album involved an
exciting element of surprise, and the end-result offers one of the widest
selections available of original tracks.
Also, it's amusing to look at FZ3 as the participating artists' individual
and collective interpretation of what the Freezone series is or could or
should be about...
2
Thanks to DJ Morpheus' matchmaking skills, FZ3 is graced with three unusual
collaborative efforts: Snooze vs
DJ Cam, Mixmaster Morris vs Jonah Sharpe, and Mike Paradinas (µ-ziq) vs Luke
Vibert (Wagon Christ/Plug).
3
Unlike its predecessor (*), FZ3 contains very little so-called trip hop, but
a much higher toe-wiggling factor, with a noticeable proportion of
home-listening house. Brothers and Sisters, the time has come to Sit Up and
Dance !
(*) Freezone 2, also compiled by DJ Morpheus, was one of the very first
albums which laid down the foundations of freestyle (in the current sense
of the word), with its heady mixture of atmospheric jungle, jazzy abstract
hip hop (trip hop to you) and cool techno. As for Freezone 1, it inaugurated
the now-classic series by weaving together diverse strands of ambient music
(classical, technoid and experimental).
