About this item

Fred Again, the hottest export in UK stadium dance music returns with his MUCH anticipated new album, "Ten Days". Famously working with a wealth of contemporary collaborators; on this excursion we get Sampha, Skrillex, Emmylou Harris and many more. Mixing sensuality, emotion and tons upon tons of upfront pop sensibilities - all galvanized with an electronic, forwarding thinking production which has won him plaudits from quite literally, everyone in the music industry. Its brooding in parts, but these moments of melancholy often burst into brightness, rising the soul with their overpowering sentiment. Musically, he's untouchable (expected, due to his extensive classical background; oh and did we mention he lives next door to, and is mentored by Brian Eno). I'll tell you what though, who ever gave our posh Balham boy his first gary needs a medal. As watching him delve into the world of electronic dance music is something to behold.

It'd be lazy to compare to Four Tet, Overmono, Floating Point - as these are simply other luminaries existing on the same axis of time and in our wonderfully creative United Kingdom. You could go back further - The Chemical Brothers, Orbital, Leftfield - acts with their finger so delicately on the pulse that they traverse the immediate dance music demographic and become household names and global superstars.

Includes “Ten Days” includes single ‘Adore U’ (now platinum record with over 600K+ UK sales), "Ten' and "Places To Be".

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Like Jamie XX and Jamie Woon, Fred Again manages to marry deep emotive sentiment with unfathomably fresh production, and he does it almost effortlessly. A true musical polymath who we're privileged to be right here, right now, on his journey. We're probably at the red giant stage, with supernova and neutron star yet to come...
