When The Shapeshifters dropped their track with Billy Porter last year via Glitterbox – it was a gag. The most unexpected collaboration turned out to be everything we needed to get us back on the dancefloor. Now The Shapeshifters have announced Let Loose, a brand new album featuring their hook-up with Billy Porter as well as new work with Joss Stone and the voice that is Kimberly Davis.
“When I decided to continue The Shapeshifters legacy on my own in 2017, I knew that I could produce music with no compromises and in a way that I had always wanted to return to – taking a classic approach to song writing and producing and moving the sound I love forward. Using techniques laid down long before me by the likes of Gamble and Huff, Quincy Jones and my good friend Frankie Knuckles, and with the help of incredible musicians, co-writers with fresh voices and ideas, the aim was to create a soundtrack for the latest generation of Disco and House lovers to Let Loose to on dance floors across the world” The Shapeshifters’ Simon Marlin. The release date for Let Loose is TBA still but judging from the Vinyl Pre-order Teaser video, it’s going to be fire.
