An album long awaited by the French house fans finally has a definite date of release. Fred Falke's debut via Work It Baby is set to drop in December has been a long time coming. But is it really worth the wait?
Not familiar with his work? He is the man behind quality remixes and productions from artists like U2, Lykke Li, Gossip, Miike Snow, Uffie, Ladyhawke, Little Boots and Florrie to name a few.
So what can I say about the album? None because obviously I don't have to it yet. But here is Fred Falke to talk more about the album from a press release he did recently.
Says Fred Falke:
"So much of modern music takes the ideas in the 70′s and 80′s and uses them in a very superficial way. I hope I have managed to create something that re-asserts the musicality of this era within the context of modern music and modern production methods. I’ve always sought to re-align the modern French sound with the musical heritage that informed it, to bring that sound to a young crowd…to make it relevant to them."
It is said that the album will be pure instrumental and will made up of 12 euphoric productions that are nothing short of perfection. A wallop of funky disco grooves, hazy electronica and searing house beats!
