Composition

As for Freemasons' previous full-length release, Shakedown 2 (2009), Shakedown 3 features singles released since then by the producing team ("Believer", featuring Wynter Gordon, "Bring It Back" or "Tears", featuring Katherine Ellis), as well as some remixes for major artists, like Whitney Houston ("Million Dollar Bill"), Hurts ("Wonderful Life"), or John Newman (Cheating).

Small and Wiltshire also decided to revive the Pegasus alias, which they used for a song of the same name (released in 1998). Multiple tracks from this project are thus showcased along the other tracks from the compilation.

Release

The physical release of Shakedown 3 consists of three CDs: the first two are mixes, and the third one contains unmixed tracks, similar to their 2007 album Unmixed.

A separate digital release, Shakedown 3 (The Acapella Album), was released on November 30. It includes accapella and "DJ tools" tracks of songs from the album.

Track listing

All tracks written by Russell Small and James Wiltshire, except where noted.
