In between those two albums, he released a single called 'Over You'. But it was the B-Side 'Here (Now)' that seemed to have captured people’s imaginations. One of it's biggest fans was Ian Pooley, who has always told Fred that this was the best track he ever made. Fast forward to the end of 2019, when Ian did a feature for Telekom Electronic Beats about his top 5 B-Side tracks. 'Here (Now)' was indeed in there, making its Discogs price explode to up to 100 euros for the original EP!\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAfter a quick search in his archive, Fred found the original Cubase file of the session and was able to open it exactly as it was in Logic. Magic happened when unused parts were discovered, like a cello session completely forgotten, which sparked the idea for a new version, extending the original with overdubs from his collection of synths : Prophet, Minimoog, Solina and analog effects -- Space Echo, Moogerfooger Delay and Small Stone Phaser as well as live percussion and claps.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHaving recently signed an EP to Prins Thomas’ Internasjonal label, under his All Is Well alias, Fred invited him to remix 'Here (Now)'.

Barbarella was one of the songs on the album. It was inspired by a morning set he did at Barbarellas, the infamous outdoor venue in Tisno. The kitsch disco vibes are also a wink to the cult B-movie of the same name. But it was the 7am in Tisno mix, featured on the alternate version of the album No Way Home that made the song popular.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhile there was no plan to release it as a single, Fred had the idea to contact I:Cube, one of his all-time favourite producers, to see If he would be interested in remixing it. The process took a little while but thanks to confinement, with more available time in the studio, the I:Cube Parisian Sleeze Version was born. Taking only a few elements from the original, he completely rearranged the track into a modern disco classic as only the Cube can do. This is one of those cuts that gets better every time you hear it.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOn the B-side, Fred’s Slow Down 2021 Version expands on the Balearic vibe at a slower tempo.

The track was recorded late last year when Robert was invited to perform with Fred in Montreal during a special event by Phil Collins (the artist not the singer!). The event was related to the art installation Bring Down The Walls, which examined racial injustice and the prison industrial complex in the US and Canada, through the unconventional lens of house music.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRobert Owens needs no introduction of course, being the voice behind so many House Classics such as ‘I’ll Be Your Friend’, ‘Mystery of Love’ and of course ‘Bring Down The Walls’. The song was written the night before the studio session after meeting with Fred for the first time.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e‘When I meet you, If I meet you, I’ll take you in.

Bouncy beats, rich chords and a driven bassline but most important : a song with a positive message and purpose deeply rooted in the tradition of this music we call House. On top of the Classic mix, there are 2 BTDW (Bring Down The Walls) versions, more stripped down, inspired by the event that made it possible.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe choice of Remixer was easy, calling on one of his best friend and longest collaborator Martin ‘Atjazz’ Iveson who also collaborated with Robert in the past.

When he headed to a studio in the mountains north of Montreal to start work on his fifth album as Fred Everything, those words went with him. They would not only provide inspiration during two weeks of isolated music-making, but ultimately provide the subsequent album with its title: Love, Care, Kindness and Hope.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThose sentiments – a positive mantra during a period of personal and collective vulnerability and isolation – resonate throughout the album, a gorgeously warm and beautiful affair that counts as Blais’s most personal, musically expansive, mature and sonically detailed set to date.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile each of the tracks began as a rough sketch laid down during Blais’ retreat, they evolved considerably over the months that followed. Blais reached out to a handful of carefully selected guest vocalists and collaborators, including Stereo MC’s, Robert Owens, Sapele, James Alexander Bright, Wayne Tennant, string arranger Pete Whitfield and multi-instrumentalist Finn Peters. He also lent his voice to several tracks, a first in a career that stretches back to the 1990s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe results are magical, with Blais not only offering subtle variations on his own trademark deep house sound, but also nods to complimentary music styles and classic electronic albums from the late ‘90s and early 2000s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNaturally, much focus will fall on the album’s high-profile guests, whose contributions work perfectly with Blais’ cultured dancefloor electronica and soul-soaked broken house grooves. Robert Owens – “the voice of house” himself – expertly delivers lyrics full of compassion and reassurance on recent single ‘Never’, Sapele infuses ‘A Long Time Coming’ with lashings of soulful spirituality, and UK hip-hop\/soul legends Stereo MC’s make their presence felt on the subtly Latin-infused dub house excellence of ‘Soul Love’.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThen there’s ‘Breathe’, where UK singer-songwriter James Alexander Bright and backing vocalist Wayne Tennant rise above punchy broken house beats, Blais’ trademark square-wave bass and Pete Whitfield’s swelling strings on ‘Breathe’. By the time kaleidoscopic, sun-down breakbeat brilliance of ‘A Good Day’ arrives to draw proceedings to a close, you’ll be overflowing with Blais’ “love, care, kindness and hope” – just as he intended.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lazy Days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43373013237916,"sku":"LZDLP19","price":22.78,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/li1_36486f22-4b82-47b7-972f-795d5a6f655b.jpg?v=1712337357"},{"product_id":"fred-everything-love-care-kindness-remixes","title":"Fred Everything - Love, Care, Kindness \u0026 Remixes","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: 12\" Vinyl\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue No.: LZDLP19R\u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 22 Nov 2024\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Deep House\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklist :\u003cbr\u003eA1: Fred Everything \u0026amp; Robert Owens - Never (Yoruba Soul Mix)\u003cbr\u003eA2: Fred Everything \u0026amp; Robert Owens - Never (feat.
