The Shapeshifters unveils the deluxe edition of his studio album ‘Let Loose’ on Glitterbox which includes a never heard before Frankie Knuckles remix.
Described by Simon Marlin himself as a “career milestone”, Let Loose: Deluxe bolsters the original LP with remixes from fellow industry titans from all corners of the globe.
The long-awaited 2022 release saw Simon Marlin work with luminaries from the world of disco, house and soul like Billy Porter, Joss Stone, Kimberly Davis and Teni Tinks, and the album succeeded in pushing The Shapeshifters sonic aesthetic, retaining the brassy, string flourishes and colourful instrumentation that we have come to expect.
“The incredible response to Let Loose has blown me away. Personally, it’s been a career milestone and such a thrill to see so many of you enjoy and appreciate the work that went into making an album like this. The Deluxe version is now here – I have handpicked some incredible producers to remix with love and there may even be a surprise or two!” – Simon Marlin, The Shapeshifters
One year later, Let Loose: Deluxe features fresh takes on the original album tracks from David Penn, Dimitri from Paris, Aeroplane, Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy, Sophie Lloyd, Ray Mang, Dr Packer, Late Nite Tuff Guy, Moplen, and Marlin himself. The package also features a special, unheard remix of the 2005 Shapeshifters classic ‘Back To Basics’ from bonafide American legend and late Defected House Master Frankie Knuckles.
After an incredible showing at major house music events and festivals globally throughout the entirety of 2023, The Shapeshifters has never been more equipped for worldwide domination. The release of Let Loose: Deluxe, full to the brim with globally revered A-list artists, will serve as a seminal moment in The Shapeshifters history.
Let Loose: Deluxe from The Shapeshifters will be available via Glitterbox Recordings on 24 November 2023. Pre order here.
