As Freerange Records hits another landmark release with their 300th EP, label head Jimpster joins forces with Philippa who together deliver three original tracks that epitomize the label’s sound over the past (almost) three decades.  Rolling deep house, jazzed out grooves, UKG inspired excursions make ‘All I Wanted’ one unmissable EP.

With recent releases appearing on Slothboogie and Razor-N-Tape, remixes for Roach Motel on Faith, and James Curd and Robert Owens on Pronto, not to mention her recent Panorama Bar debut, it’s safe to say Philippa is making waves. The Berlin-based New Zealander has a sound all her own with an organic, deep, and musical style winning her fans from Terry Farley and Aroop Roy to DJ Spen and Dave Lee. 

Lead track ‘All I Wanted’ sees the duo pooling their influences with both producers’ sonic touches shining through. Chunky drums and bassline are the bedrock for pulsing synths and MON’s vocal which is chopped up and looped bringing a rolling momentum to the track.

‘Dreaming’ features the wonderful vocals of Care and goes on a floaty vibe with chiming synths and crusty Rhodes keys layering up to produce a densely textured track. The mood is powerful yet subtle and refined and will work as nicely on a chilled house playlist as it will on a discerning dance floor at 4am.

Closing out the EP ‘Say What’ goes on a jazzed out, UKG-inspired excursion. Shuffling beats, bouncing square wave bassline and big brash synth chords all combine to form a track which sounds both retro and contemporary. 

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘All I Wanted’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
