droid Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 He's got a kind of James Blake thing going on, and his stuff is undeniably heartfelt, so much so that it veers into the sentimental. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumbass Posted September 17, 2023 Author Share Posted September 17, 2023 (edited) I don't understand the people that hate on someone just because they are mainstream. If you can't enjoy a good accessible banger every now and then I can't image what vibe you give off about your music opinions in real life. Some real "☝" stuff. He isn't like some David guetta type rip off disgusting EDM artist. Edited September 17, 2023 by thumbass 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for me this stuff is way too cringe and far away from banger for me.. This is music like when you putting on a normal radio station that is ment to be for ordinary people Cheesy autotune vocals, Piano, Euro disco-synth, Hand-hearts! Put your hands in the air! oh baby I love you I want to touch you, I miss you, I kiss you yadayada.. This just reminds me of all those cheesy late 90's track.. Cool if If you dig this then you are gonna like this also but maybe it is little bit too hardcore for you: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally don't really see all of Fred's music as mainstream radio stuff. He produces plenty of UK Garage tinted music and I have never heard UKG on the modern radio at all. He also only has one or two actual mainstream hits. Anyway, to each their own I guess, I would wish a reptile brain as good as mine on ayone lol.

cern Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 I can admit that I have a music brain and really hate it sometimes because "Mainstream" tracks played on radio and stores having this red thread of cheesy simple melodies played often and repeatedly then gets stuck in my brain! Some people may love it and enjoying it but I just can.. like today I sat on a resturang and they play Eminem and that 8-mile track (Mums spaghetti, he looks calm and ready etc) And the song just keeps repeating itself in my brain all the time. So annoying even if I hear it 100000 times already. Same folder like with this Fred guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droid Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 (edited) I confess, I havent really paid attention to any of his club stuff, Im really taking about his album, which sits somewhere between Eno/Blake/Ian William Craig.

I got next week off and gonna spend a modicum of time to check this dude out to see what the fuss is all about. I can tell you that the Eno album is real floaty and nice (like the album cover) and his set at Glasto was absolutely spot on and he nailed it. That's all I know. I'm also gonna check out all the most played Spotify tracks on each release of recent obscure Aleksi Perala, which is another thing I'm rather intrigued with.

Dunno why but all of a sudden this bloke Fred and this thread.... pinged into my head, so I'm just playing his 'top 10' on Spotify.... How did you get on species8472? I know you're a man of fairly impeccable taste. I've got half an hour before Australia vs Wales starts in Rugby and Fred is banging on the headphones. Conclusion? Its really, really terrible. Quite shocking actually. Real pumping candy floss. Obvs the Eno album is the best thing he's done. Baby Again is a bit of a banger, but the rest? Naaaah, no thanks. Though in the name of fair play and sportsmanship, I'm aware that someone like this most played tracks might not nessesarily the best..... Did you remember?

Seemed pretty shocking on first impressions. On the basis of the tunes I played I'm surprised Eno even went within a mile of him, but aren't they family or something? But then he did produce Coldplay, so he's not adverse to making music with candy floss merchants. Edited September 24, 2023 by beerwolf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
