Freefall is the debut EP by Chapterhouse released in 1990. Its first track, "Falling Down", was used as part of their debut album, Whirlpool.[1] The other tracks were released on the 2006 reissue of Whirlpool along with Sunburst and the "Pearl" single.
Allmusic writer Ned Raggett described "Falling Down" as a "fantastic opener" with "swirling, sweet vocals underscored by a punchy (but not quite as electronic and crisp) funk rhythm". He also recommended the track "Inside of Me" for having a near Sonic Youth-level "rush of noise".
