Actual Life 3 (January 1 - Sep

Groundbreaking artist and producerFredagain..today announces his new albumActual Life 3(January 1 - September 9 2022),the third of his hugely successfulActual Lifetrilogy. To celebrate the announcement,Fredhas shared a new track taken from the album, ‘Danielle (smile on my face)’ which samples the acapella of 070 Shake’s ‘Nice To Have’ - his most listened to track this year and a song that has soundtracked his “actual life”.Building on the template already laid down with his debut LP,Actual Life (February 2nd - July 19th)and its companion follow upActual Life 2 (February 2 - October 15 2021),Actual Life 3seesFredagain.. resume his diary-esque approach to production.His intimate use of voice notes from friends, videos found whilst scrolling on Instagram and samples from important records in his lifeserves as a personal record of his life experiences, offering insight into his world over the past year.Actual Life 3is a continuation of an autobiographical body of work that both references and pushes forwards the heritage of UK electronic music while standing as testament to the power of music in facilitating catharsis, healing and celebrating the realities of friendship, love and life.Today’s announcement follows on from a run of acclaimed club-ready singles underFred’s ‘USB’ playlist series: last month’s collaboration withSwedish House Mafia‘Turn On The Lights again..’ featuringFuture(his highest charting single to date), June’s thunderous‘Jungle’, January’s‘Lights Out’ in collaboration withHAAiandRomyand March’s ‘Admit It (U Don’t Want 2)’withI.Jordan. All four are now fixtures in DJ sets around the world, as well asFred’s own live performances - a stunningly honed show that takes crowds through material from the achingly beautiful moments of hisActual Lifealbum series and unifying, standout tracks of last summer ‘Marea (We’ve Lost Dancing)’ and ‘Billie (Loving Arms)’. One of the places where this was experienced in all its glory was for theCoachellafestival in California -where Forbes noted,“FredAgain.. caught quite the Coachella buzz, and for good reason. The aesthetic of his vibrant set somehow perfectly encapsulated our collective nervous breakdown of the past two years and then set us all free.”So far in his short career, the prolific London artist has released two acclaimed, deeply personal albums from hisActual Lifeseries which were beloved by fans and critics alike. Last year also sawFredagain.. become one of the year's most talked about live acts as he transformed hisActual Liferecords into an immersive, communal real-life experience for the first time. With shows selling out across the UK and USA, he was named one of Mixmag's "Top 10 Live Acts Of 2021".Fredcontinued his upwards trajectory with the viral success release of hisBoiler Roomset last month, which has to date surpassed over5 millionstreamsin only 4 weeks.
