New Fredricson: “Paralyze”

The latest from producer Fredricson confirms that the artist — who is also a member of the group Remigai — firmly shows that even though he mostly operates outside of dance music circles, he makes some of the most compelling electronic tunes currently in Japan. “Paralyze” is his most dizzying work yet, a rumbling number featuring vocal ripples and helium singing over twinkling notes. Plenty of electronic music sounds like you can touch it, but “Paralyze” really drives home the textural side of Fredricson’s work by having all sorts of mismatched elements graze one another, making for a disorienting listen.
