Release Notes:
Freemasons present Shakedown 3, a triple CD package which features two full length DJ mixes and an 18 track artist album. As with the first two Shakedown mix albums all tracks are produced or remixed by Freemasons and include their chart topping remixes of London Grammar, John Newman, Whitney Houston and Hurts as well as new versions of their own hits 'Uninvited', 'Heartbreak', 'Rain Down Love' and 'Believer'. The 'Poolside' mix showcases the deeper side of Freemasons and their alter ego Pegasus with new collaborations with Bailey Tzuke and Judie Tzuke, Emma Rohan and Katherine Ellis. The 'Deckside' mix is packed with floorfillers including the red hot 'Nothing To Lose' with Andrea Martin, a new track with long time cohort Amanda Wilson, a cover of 'Discopolis' and a host of new Freemasons productions. Freemasons last studio album 'Unmixed' went silver in the UK and their first two Shakedown albums were globally renowned. Shakedown 3 combines the best of both worlds and includes some of their biggest hits and fourteen brand new Freemasons productions.

It has been five years since the last Freemasons compilation, which by the way was backed by a UK Top 20 smash they did with Sophie Ellis-Bextor, 'Heartbreak (Make Me A Dancer)', and floor-filler remixes of Beyoncé, Solange and Kylie's singles. How can you top that? If you're scanning the Shakedown 3 track list for more pop divas, you might be disappointed. The grandmasters of house are doing something richer and more connected with the house music scene for this collection. Shakedown 3 is a three-disc opus, featuring two full-length DJ mixes and an album of brand new tunes. The Freemasons are known for delivering dramatic house records with big vocals on blast, and after a decade of working together, James and Russell are not about to flip the table on their signature sound. We've got in-demand dance music vocalists like Katherine Ellis and Amanda Wilson, as well as a few must-hear artists who might not be regulars on the club charts, such as Emma Rohan and Joel Edwards. 'In The Blue' and 'Sea of Fire' featuring Emma Rohan sound like new Freemasons classics. Rohan - a Brighton-based songwriter who has penned tracks for Boyzone and Matt Cardle - is a revelation. Her smoky soulful tones, when flanked by opulent strings and stomping club beats, is simply luxurious. Other standouts include emerging indie band Rubylux's single 'World Goes Quiet', which is reimagined as a big, urgent emotional dance track. The result is a nice balance that falls somewhere between Lawson and The Wanted's style. Perhaps without the desperation of the latter. Shakedown 3's two epic DJ mixes - Poolside Mix and Night Mix - are Friday essentials. One would be perfect for Friday night, after-work mingles with prosecco, while the other will carry you into the small hours. The new version of Freemasons' 2010 single 'Believer', featuring Wynter Gordon, shines on the Night Mix with its emphasised piano and drums. The track leads you into the duo's massive remixes of Hurts' 'Wonderful Life' and Whitney Houston's 'Million Dollar Bill'. Here's where it dawns on us how long it has been since the Freemasons' last blockbuster pop remix. While the album of new material shows us that the Freemasons' approach to dance music will never be anything less than magical, it does raise the question of how long they can keep mixing and pouring the same formula. James and Russell have cut a few new tunes under the alias Pegasus, and it's big inclusions like that which makes Shakedown 3 their most diverse body of work yet. There are dabbles of funk-house and different flavours of house that will satisfy dance music aficionados. There is simply too much knowledge and deep respect for the history of dance music for the Freemasons to ever flog just one style.

Freemasons are an English-Irish DJ band from Brighton, East Sussex, England. The act consists of the producers Russell Small (who is also one half of the house production duo Phats & Small) and James Wiltshire (who also works with Phats & Small under the alias 'Jimmy Gomez').

Their name is taken from the Brighton pub, Freemasons Tavern, Hove, which they frequently visit. The duo also record and remix under the similar sounding "Freemaison" name, which is also the name of their record label that was founded in 2005. Freemasons have also produced tracks under the names of Alibi, Walken, Funk Fanatics and BN3 (which is part of their hometown of Hove's postal code).

In 2005, the duo transformed Jackie Moore's 1979 #1 Billboard Hot Dance Club Play track "This Time Baby", and Tina Turner's 2000 hit "When the Heartache Is Over", into an international club hit as "Love on My Mind". A #11 hit in the UK, it was also released in the United States on their U.S. label home, the New York based Ultra Records.

Freemasons were also the remixers on Faith Evans' 2005 #1 Hot Dance Club Play and #4 Hot Dance Airplay hit, "Mesmerized". The Freemason's follow-up, "Watchin'" was released in the United States in 2006 with Amanda Wilson as their lead vocalist for the track. "Watchin'" peaked at #1 on the Hot Dance Club Play and within the Top 20 of the Hot Dance Airplay chart. The third original single from the Freemasons, "Rain Down Love" reached the Top 20 of the Hot Dance Airplay chart. Their fourth single (released digitally), "Nothing But a Heartache" featuring vocals from Sylvia Mason-James was released in June 2007. The Freemasons also remixed Beyoncé's original song, "Déjà Vu" in 2006 (for which they were nominated for a Grammy Award). The Freemasons followed this up with further remixes of "Ring the Alarm", "Beautiful Liar" (duet with Shakira), and "Green Light". They also co-produced "The One" on Kylie Minogue's album X with Richard Stannard and remixed the song for single release in May 2008.
2007–2009: Unmixed and Shakedown 2.

On 29 October 2007, the Freemasons released Unmixed, an album containing unmixed versions of most of their mixes to date. As a bonus, there is a data track containing samples and a cappella versions of "Unmixed". In 2007, The Freemasons worked with Kelly Rowland, to produce the remix of her single "Work", for the non-American markets. In 2007 they were rumored to be producing an album for Donna Summer, but the project fell through due to scheduling commitments.

The follow-up to their own "Uninvited", "When You Touch Me", was released in the UK on 30 June 2008. The song featured Katherine Ellis. The video premiered in May 2008. The song entered the UK Singles Chart in June 2008 and reached its peak of #23 on 6 July. Beyoncé's sister, Solange Knowles used the duo's production skills to create her single "I Decided" for its release in 2008.

Freemasons released the song "Heartbreak (Make Me a Dancer)", featuring Sophie Ellis-Bextor, on 15 June 2009 in the United Kingdom. The single peaked at #13 in the UK, making it their fifth Top 20 hit on the UK Singles Chart, and was a smash hit on the club charts. It had success in the European charts. X Factor 2008 winner Alexandra Burke confirmed on her official website that the Freemasons had produced tracks for her debut album.

The duo released a remix EP (Summer of Pride Mix) digitally on 15 August 2010 and peaked at 23 on the UK Dance Singles Chart. The single (including an edited version) was released in the UK on 5 December 2010. "Believer" features R&B singer Wynter Gordon.

In April 2012, Russell discussed with fans after a gig in Bournemouth about talk of signing a new contract on Ministry of Sound's label, to release an album in early 2013. He is quoted as saying "It's still early days, however they have said that they will want lots of collaborations. It's something to look forward to."
