Jimpster (Jamie Odell) is a producer and DJ who founded the London based Deep House label, Freerange Records back in 1996. Jamie has a “Best Deep House Producer” award to his name along with a few more accolades. A little more future jazz than I normally listen too but enough drum n bass to keep me coming back.
