Electronic music producer Fred again.. has released his latest album “ten days.” ten days album is a deeply personal chronicle of love, loss, and emotional transformation. Read our thoughts and review of Fred again.. ten days album.
The album, which dropped today, offers listeners an intimate glimpse into ten pivotal days of the artist’s recent life.
Sometimes when you make a record by the time you put it out you feel kinda different from how you did when you made it. This is the opposite of that. I feel more intensely about all of these things right now than I did even when I was making it.
In a series of candid social media posts, Fred shared insights into the album’s creation and meaning.
“These are ten songs about ten days,” he wrote, explaining that the tracks capture “really very small quiet intimate moments” that profoundly shaped him over the past year.
The album’s narrative arc traces the trajectory of a whirlwind romance, from the euphoric beginnings of falling in love through darker periods of numbness and regret.
Fred describes experiencing “glowy and very lifted up days,” followed by a time when “everything changed and the days were sorta blurry and actually really just mostly numb.“
Notably, Fred draws parallels between his experience of love and the grieving process. He notes that both can be non-linear emotional journeys. This realization seems to have influenced the album’s structure.
Basically what happened is I fell in love. And then a lot of glowy and very lifted-up days started to happen. And then some time after everything changed and the days were sorta blurry and just mostly numb. numb is scary I’ve learned.
Fred admits to initially questioning his decision to incorporate such personal content into his music. However, he now expresses gratitude for this openness, citing the positive impact his storytelling has had on fans. “I’ve been so moved by people coming up to me and talking about how that story helped them,” he shared.
But when I look back on it, I don’t regret being so vulnerable, in fact, I’m happy it was, cos I can make sense of things better, I think? And I guess there’s also the thing of how many times I’ve been so moved by people coming up to me and talking about how that story helped them, that helps me too. We help each other. It’s nice. It’s really nice.
The album release wasn’t without its hiccups. Fred alerted fans that the wrong version of the track “glow”, a collaboration with Skrillex, Four Tet, and Duskus was initially uploaded to streaming platforms. He assured that an improved version, featuring a “way better” second half, would be available within 24 hours of the initial release.
The album is now available on all major streaming platforms, with the corrected version of “glow” expected to be live tomorrow.
