Despite performing on the world's biggest stages, from Coachella to Glastonbury, Fred again… has the profound ability to make the monumental feel deeply personal.
In his previous Current life On his albums, the superstar producer captures the rawness of the human experience by turning everyday moments into powerful, visceral dance tracks. Using recorded samples of real-life interactions, he has built his reputation on producing music that makes fans feel like they are in the room with him at all times.
Fred deepens that connection in ten days, which the described as an album that brings to life the “small, quiet, intimate moments.” In that spirit, the album is packed with collaborations, from Sampha and Skrillex to Joy Anonymous and Emmylou Harris, creating an interesting dichotomy between those private moments and their dissemination after being laid bare for all to experience.
Featuring 10 songs and 10 interludes that flow together to create a cohesive narrative, the album opens with the uplifting “adore u,” where bubbling marimbas flutter across Obongjayar’s luminous vocals. Meanwhile, he takes the album in a more upbeat direction with “places to be,” a track where he combines hard-hitting drum patterns with Anderson .Paak’s soulful swing.
One of the album's highlights is “glow,” where Duskus' atmospheric production intertwines with Skrillex' energy and Four Tet's meticulous precision. The combination of these virtuoso talents is a microcosm of the prevailing spirit of ten days:that all of Fred's small, intimate moments eventually built upon each other to form a journey.
The album concludes with “backseat,” a fitting finale that feels like a snapshot frozen in time, thanks to The Japanese House’s smooth vocals: “Hold on to this feeling, ‘cause you won’t feel it for long,” he sings. Replete with Fred’s ethereal instrumentation, the song reminds us that even in the most chaotic and overwhelming of times, it’s important to appreciate the little things.
