PRODUCT DETAILS
The final chapter of Freerange's 30th anniversary series arrives with Volume 5, bringing together six brand new and exclusive tracks from across the Freerange family and beyond. As with the previous four volumes, it's a snapshot of the label's enduring musical DNA - deep, soulful, underground, and resolutely dancefloor-focused. And while this marks the end of the five-part vinyl series, the story isn't quite over yet: in November, all five volumes will be brought together in a complete "30 Years of Freerange" box set, collecting all 30 tracks in one definitive and lovingly designed package.Kicking off the release Jimpster slips back into early-00s rolling house mode with "What U R", a deep, groovy, and effortlessly bouncy workout that hits all the familiar sweet spots. Warm bass, tight drums, and a seriously infectious groove - Jimpster doing what he does best.Freerange has long admired the work of Last Nubian, so it feels particularly good to finally welcome some of his music to the label in the form of a killer track titled "Magic". Teaming up with Tommy Rawson and featuring Redbird on vocals, they deliver a serious slice of London-style soulful house: deep, musical, and a rich melting pot of elements giving the track a distinctly UK flavor.Next up Crackazat goes full lo-slung boogie mode on "Groove Again", bringing the funk with his trademark hooky synth stabs, Moog bassline, and irresistibly crunchy drum groove. A feel-good jam complete with Crackazat's own vocals, making for a track with bags of character and just the right amount of grit.Flipping over, Toronto-based producer Reagan Grey makes her Freerange debut with "Sidewalks", delivering a solid slice of deep house designed squarely for the dancefloor. Hypnotic, stripped-back, and subtly driving, it's a track that gets under your skin without ever needing to shout about it.Next we have Simbad who brings his own inimitable style to "This Joint", a mid-tempo deep house groove with plenty of space, soul, and swing. Adding another layer of Detroit magic, legendary producer Andrés (of New 4 U / KDJ / Mahogany Music / Moods n Grooves fame) contributes percussion and vocals, making for a beautiful meeting of Cape Town and Motor City sensibilities.Having already delivered the excellent "Detoronto" EP for Freerange, Canadian duo Toronto Hustle & Sean Roman round things off in fine style with "Unconscious Therapy (The Dancer)". A rolling, deep, and hypnotic groove that gradually pulls you in, locking into that sweet spot between heads-down house music and late-night dancefloor ecstasy.With Volume 5, the "30 Years of Freerange" series reaches it's final destination - six more exclusive cuts completing a collection that spans five EP's and 30 tracks. The full story comes together in November with the "30 Years of Freerange" box set, bringing the entire series together as one celebration of three decades of Freerange.

By far, my favorite shop to buy from! Always quick with the delivery! Love tyler the creator and I've been searching for this specific vinyl at a good price!
package shipped well. there was a fragile sticker on the box which was nice, most places don’t put that and vinyls get damaged. package arrived in perfect condition.
Good packaging, product was in good condition and showed up on time great album no problems with any of the vinyls either very happy with it.
I am a huge Bob's Burger Fan and found this album as I was browsing the website. I had to get it immediately. I can believe I came across this on a random Tuesday. Can't thank coming across pale blue records enough. And the delivery is super fast. Can't wait for my next purchase.
Super fast shipping, packing done well. Exactly as described. The customer service and product choice is why I keep coming back.
Perfectly packaged, no warping, clear sound. Will definitely purchase from Pale Blue Dot Records again.

Would definitely buy from Pale Dot Records again. The delivery was fast and the records sounds great!
Purchased as a Christmas gift for my 29 year old son. Can't wait for him to open. Packaged with care and timely shipping. Positive experience!
Vinyls arrived in perfect condition, expertly packed, and 3 days from the date of purchase (over the Thanksgiving holiday, no less). Could not be more pleased. Thanks so much!
We received our vinyl fast, it was fairly price, and they had a great selection to choose from. One record we purchased had an issue on the track, and the owner was quick to resolve the issue for us. I’ll be purchasing all of our records from this store moving forward!
The records and the sleeve are really nice. Pacific Dot Records blew me away with shipping it out like, immediately after I ordered it. Arrived well protected and perfect. No complaints.
fast shipping, great communication, and awesome staff. very responsive with messages too. can’t wait to purchase from them again
Records arrived inside the special record boxes, unopened, and in pristine condition. They didn't very long to begin the shipping either. Some places make you wait 3-5 days just to have it shipped out. They did not.
This is not about the product. I've ordered from PBD before and the Vinyls that come from them are wonderful and pressed really well!
This review is more on customer service.
USPS seemed to have goofed around a bit and cause a delay of about 1.5 weeks. Tristan was a highly communicative person and was reassuring with the options I had regarding if my order never arrived. Good sense of humor, accountability, and customer satisfaction. The Sweetwater of vinyl shops. Officially my vinyl go to!
