Jimpster a.k.a. Audiomontage, a.k.a. Franc<br />
Spangler, real name Jamie Odell, is a British born house<br />
producer and DJ. Together with Tom Roberts, he<br />
founded the labels Freerange Records and Delusions<br />
of Grandeur. While producing his own tracks and<br />
playing live shows, Jimpster has also worked on<br />
remixes, including a remix of the song 400 years by<br />
Bob Marley.<br />
Born into a musical family, Jimpster was influenced and encouraged<br />
by his father Roger Odell who is the drummer in the jazz-funk band<br />
Shakatak. It was there that he was first exposed to electronic<br />
synthesizers and recording equipment at around age 10.<br />
He started Freerange records in 1996, a label that has since found a<br />
niche in deep house with artists like Shur-I-Kan and Milton Jackson.<br />
Jimpster played in a live electronica band, The Bays, from 2002 until<br />
2007, but eventually decided to focus on DJ'ing and his record label.<br />
In 2007 his label Freerange was voted Best British Label by DJ Mag,<br />
in 2010 he won the Beatport titles: Best Deep House Producer and<br />
Best Deep House Remix of the year.<br />
