Endup Presents- Jimpster (Freerange Records)

The Pavilion

Sat 22nd Feb, 9:30 pm

EndUp are delighted to welcome to Cork, house music stalwart, and Freerange Records label head,

Jimpster!

Producer, DJ, remixer, label boss, taste-maker. Jamie Odell wears many hats and wears them well.

Under his Jimpster alias, he has become one the most revered deep house artists operating on the

scene today. His esteemed labels Freerange and Delusions Of Grandeur continue to help break

incredible new music and equally impressive acts such as Detroit Swindle, Tornado Wallace and

Session Victim. From his UK base, Jimpster has inadvertently become a standard-bearer and

custodian of the authentic house sound, and carries this flag to the four corners of the world.

Despite early releases dating right back to 1991 on Jumpin’ & Pumpin', it was his seminal debut LP

'Messages From The Hub' which established Jimpster as an artist of note back in the late 90’s. This

LP brought critical acclaim and invites for collaborations and remixes for artists as diverse as Coldcut,

Solomun, Lamb, Airto Moreira and Bob Marley. The music has flowed steadily and consistently since

then, mostly on Freerange, with the 2006 excursion 'Square Up' on Ben Watt’s seminal Buzzin Fly

label proving to be a (temporary) transfer of one London-based deep house icon to another.

Releases such as ‘English Rose’, 'Dangly Panther', 'A Love Like This' and 'Can't Stop Loving'

continue to be choice cuts for many DJ's whilst 'These Times' and 'Porchlight And Rocking Chairs',

two more deep house anthems, were remixed by Dixon and KiNK to serious effect. 2021 proved to be a landmark year for Jimpster and his label with Freerange celebrating 25 years in the business, a 3

volume Jimpster Anthology, as well as his 7th LP Birdhouse winning many new fans. 2021 could even be his most productive year to date with an amazing collaboration with Rich Medina released on Foliage, Soul Spectral EP already hitting 3 million streams on Spotify and remixes for The Sunburst

Band, Soichi Terada, Hot Since 82 and many more consistently hitting the top spot on the Traxsource sales charts.

His current stat count as a remixer recently passed a century and the acts to receive his midas touch include everyone from Osunlade (“Mommas Groove” still being hammered by Moodymann on a regular basis), Kerri Chandler, Kollektiv Turmstrasse and Josh Wink ('Jus Right' stole the show at

Dixon's 2015 Detroit Movement set) through to Seal and Terrence Parker. More recent remixes for Detroit Swindle, Butch and Atjazz show that the inspiration is still flowing thick and fast.

With Jimpster still doing the business at globally renowned hotspots like Brooklyn Mirage (New York), Womb (Tokyo), and Heidegluhen (Berlin), a slew of new music on the way including an EP for legendary label Nu Groove and with over three decades of experience to draw on, we see clearly that the fire is still burning as brightly as ever.

As he puts it himself, “The mission is clear: to try to inject warmth, depth, soul, sincerity and attitude

to both my productions and my DJ sets. This is what sets the major players apart from the pretenders.

That challenge is what keeps me focused and inspired 30 years on and I'm sure it will keep the fire in my belly for many years to come.”
