It's early morning on New Years Day, and I foolishly agreed to come in to work. It's cold and gloomy out, no one else is here today, and I was scrolling through KZread when I came across Fred's Tiny Desk Concert. I am so glad I didn't scroll past. I have been glued to the screen for it's entirety. I was a bit bummed out to be at work today, I am mildly hungover, quite tired, and yet the past 27 minutes feel like they are the perfect proper intro to what will be a monumental and fantastic year ahead.

Proof that some DJ’s are intensely musical, genuinely talented and wildly creative. This guy is, quite clearly, all of those things.

Fred doesn’t just make music, he orchestrates sounds that preach to the human soul. We should be blessed to live in a generation with this type of presence, and learn from the thoughts and ideas he has brought to fruition for the music community. Truly a lifetime experience.

So true. A lot of us amateur producers walked so Fred could run. The concept of this performance isn't new by any means, but Fred has it polished in a way that only someone who came at the time he did, could do. The promise of this was sold to a generation of Beta testing bed room producers who gave up, grew up etc before they could put their 10k hours in, with the tools that actually did the job. That takes absolutely nothing away him, but just saying he is standing on the shoulders of many. And it's a beautiful thing.

@@globeatin couldn't agree more, totally understand what you're saying. And yeah, it takes nothing away from Fred. I just think it's less likely that he and many others would exist without all the precedent: and I'm sure he'd agree, he's a humble chap by all accounts! Besides, that's what music is. He's carrying on a long tradition of mutation and conception.

This came at a very difficult time in my life. This session helped me a lot to move forward. Thank you, Fred.

bro.. this guy just comes out of nowhere in my life and makes insane meaningful heartfelt music and i just cant get over it. its exactly what my ear wants to hear. Fred again and again and again and again. much love!

@@Ryan-vn7de Ren is a multi genre artist from the UK who is almost unavoidable on KZread. He is an independent and his newest album (which is a rap/hip hop genre) debuted at #1 in the UK and is quite extraordinary. He came up busking in the streets of Brighton and was recently in the band “The Big Push” and you should definitely look them up. He just last Thursday released a mashup of FredAgain songs where it’s just him and his acoustic guitar. Really amazing performance and it’s why so many of us have found FredAgain and I’m thankful to Ren for turning me into this “new” to me artist. FredAgain is not very well known here in the USA.

This is first KZread comment I have ever left on a video but I could not resist. Fred has single-handedly reshaped the culture and the way I personally view music as an art. No cliche boundaries, no rules, no creativity boxes but rather absolutely beautiful way of expressing his uniqueness by being such a diverse artist. As someone who produces the music as a hobby I have had rough patch recently of feeling demotivated and constantly hitting writers block but this is beyond inspirational! Thank you for your hard work and everything you do Mr Frederick. Cheers mate.

"If you dont know, dont worry" This phrase juste hit me like a truck and had me tearing up in my room. For people struggling with social anxiety and depression, music truly has a mystical power for healing and self-soothing. It's treatment for me at this point. This concert is up top with Mac Millers', Anderson Paak's and FKJ's performances for me, a brief moment suspended in time and space.

If you see this in 2050 I’ve watched it in 2024 at East London ( South Africa 🇿🇦)

I mean, this is this generation's version of Nirvana Unplugged, an absolute masterpiece of music for this generation in my opinion, and I am 44 years old. I've listened to this mix (concert) 50+ times as brings out such emotion in me, as I hope it does for you too. It's literally more than what it was ever meant to be. Such meaning, heartbreak, love & family in every tune, Thank you for this Fred, in this world, it s much needed.

Nostalgia. Like a lonely astronaut on a distant planet recalling his friends on Earth. One of the most impressive performances on NPR.

This just blew me away. I was so grateful when I came to the comments to see how many others felt the same. My husband and I love Fred Again.. and tiny desk concerts. My husband watched this and was very touched. He insisted I take some time to watch. I totally teared up too. We laid in bed, closed our eyes and listened again together with the lights off. We don't get much peace or time alone together with 2 little kids. This was a magical moment though. Electronic music has never touched our souls quite like this. This tiny desk concert was powerful. Our 3 year old also just adores Fred's music. She dances and sings her little heart out to it during our family dance parties. Thank you Fred for being a light to these parents this year. It takes a lot to be vulnerable and put yourself out there, so happy for your success.

I had the opportunity to see Fred in his after party in São Paulo, and it's mad to see how he can make people feel such extreme emotions. In his DJ set, I felt pure joy, danced, sweated my whole body and went totally nuts for 2 hours straight. Now, I've sat down through this whole video with tears in my eyes, feeling happy, sad, nostalgic, grateful, and completely out of myself. Fred himself is art at its purest form, I am just glad to be alive at the same time he's doing all of it.
