There is more than one artist with the name Freestyle:
1. One of the most prolific and influential of the ’80s electro artists, Miami-based producer Tony Butler recorded a string of popular club tracks on Power/Jam Packed and his own Music Specialist label in the mid-’80s, helping build the electro legacy that would give birth to Miami-style bass music and freestyle (named after Butler’s primary pseudonym), as well as influence ’90s post-techno artists such as Autechre and Biochip C. Butler’s earlier tracks under his own name are all electro classics, with singles such as “Fix It in the Mix,” “Jam the Box,” and “Get Some” exploring a thinner, more stripped-down sound similar to Man Parrish and Cybotron. Butler’s tracks with Freestyle are perhaps the more well known, and include such club staples as “It’s Automatic,” “Don’t Stop the Rock,” and “The Party Has Begun.” His more commercial, pop-oriented writing and production work with Trinere, Debbie Deb, and Shannon, however, remain his claim to fame. Butler continued to live and record in Miami thereafter.
2. A Filipino band, formed by Top Suzara and Jinky Vidal in 1996. When Freestyle hit the Manila bar scene in 1998, it was a case of young musicians being at the right place at the right time, with the right sound. Those five guys and a girl had then what Manila was looking for- a new band with vast appeal and the knack for filling venues with their blend of pop, R&B and original hits.
