Want To Know You

Freelance Hellraiser

Ugly Truth

WE SAY

Freelance Hellraiser was first known as a pioneer of the bootleg scene, the man who spliced Genie In A Bottle over the top of Hard To Explain. Artists he has remixed include Ian Brown, Shakira, Editors and Christina Aguilera. He's the DJ on this year's NME tour. And now he has an album deal, as the first signing to Ugly Truth, a new imprint through Sony BMG. We've heard tracks from the album, some of which feature Gary from Snow Patrol, and it sounds very promising indeed. This is the limited edition introductory single.
