Fred P (реальное имя - Фред Петеркин), также известный под псевдонимом Black Jazz Consortium - человек, с чьим именем связывают возрождение Нью-Йоркской хаус-сцены. Пластинки Фреда выходили на таких столпах электронной музыки как Underground Quality, Strength Music, Esperanza и Deep Explorer. Называть мистера Петеркина новичком на музыкальном поприще - не совсем верно. Он пишет музыку уже около 20ти лет, а потому имеет багаж знаний и опыта, которому можно позавидовать. Вместе со своими друзьями Jus-Ed, Dj Qu и Levon Vincent Фред достойно представляет Нью-Йорк на мировой музыкальной сцене, регулярно гастролируя по Европе и Азии. В 2010ом году Fred P занял 56ое место в рейтинге лучших диджеев мира по версии Resident Advisor. Его треки “It Is What It Is” и “On This Vibe” вошли в итоговые чарты за 2010ый год на таких порталах как Resident Advisor и Little White Earbuds. Альбом “Structure”, который Петеркин выпустил под псевдонимом Black Jazz Consortium занял ПЕРВОЕ (!) место в рейтинге лучших альбомов 2009ого года по версии Little White Earbuds. Статьи и интервью с Фредом выходили на таких гигантах электронной журналистики как Resident Advisor, Louche и LWE.
Fred P has truly captivated the house fraternity of late with his deep as the ocean house cuts on his very own Soul People Music as well as on Underground Quality . The word deep has recently been used to a point of overkill but one man that word applies to in his character as well as the music he makes is Fred . Fred is no new comer either . he has been carving and working on music for the past 20 years . so there is knowledge and skill there !!! .
Fred , Jus Ed , Dj Qu & Levon Vincent became much more than just New York dj’s and producers . they truly captivated and captured audiences from all over the place with their highly intoxicating take on house music .
articles and heavy features came from the likes of Resident Advisor , Xlr8 and many more but Fred & the rest of the crew remain focused and truly humble . 2010 Looks like it will be a rich year for Fred what with ace releases already garnering high praise on Soul People alongside Move D & Steve Oh . Contribution on Laid . Fred is also constantly on the road with gigs in Berlin , New York , Belgrade , Frankfurt , London Ireland , Philly , Miami Winter Music Conference 2010 For Ra .e.t.c. & satisfied audiences and promoters all around and more release planned for this year only the sky is the limit for this great master builder . The devastatingly brilliant Deep Things Ep truly cemented Fred position as a producer of note . Little White Earbuds could not get enough of Fred and made his ace Structure cd album their number one album for 2010

For many listeners, Fred P. was one of 2009’s major discoveries. Less a young upstart than a veteran finally getting his due, Fred Peterkin has become one of the key players in New York City’s resurgent house scene. His affiliations with Jus-Ed and Move D — both of whom are contributors to upcoming releases on Peterkin’s Soul People Music imprint — hint at his elegant deep house style, but his releases for the past two years as Black Jazz Consortium have established his unique voice. Fred took off from working on his ever-expanding label and his own productions not only for an in-depth discussion, but to provide us with our 29th podcast as well: an exclusive two hour journey through the deepest house — including some unreleased cuts.
