About Red Astaire

Fredrik Lager aka Freddie Cruger & Red Astaire released his first 12" vinyl in 94 under the name Chimney Heads (only 100 copies printed). The characteristic style of Freddies productions are a blend off old school hip-hop and b-boy grooves mixed up with dirty funk, soul, reggae, latin and disco rhythms. During his career he was signed to Jugglin' Records (sub-label to Raw Fusion Recordings) but he also released music on Swedish Brandy, GAMM (as the notorious Red Astaire), Tru Thoughts and his own Home Grown label. Lager collaborated with a diverse range of musicians during his career, including China Moses (DeDe Bridgewater’s daughter), Bob Powers (A Tribe Called Quest, The Roots), Rappadon, Baz Baz, La Nata (France), ADL, Desmond Foster, Linn, Swing Fly, Anthony David, Bas-1, and many others Besides this, he also travelled the world as a renowned DJ spinning everything from future to old-school funk, soul, hip hop, reggae, disco and latin. He sadly passed away in early June 2022. RIP
