FREDFADES MIXES

"Here’s a mix of some various records bought during lockdown that I’m looking forward to play on the rave we’re throwing in the woods of Oslo this weekend. Starts off with some nice stuff for the early hours, and ends with some more uptempo vibes. Loads of weirdo private and indie street soul, disco, boogie, italo, new wave dub's and different types of house from the late eighties and early nineties. Quite Balearic shit. Emotional and heartfelt jams with a playful or corny twist to it. Bring out the magnums!" - @fredfades

Trushmix 189-Fredfades

Fredfades needs little introduction. The Norwegian DJ and Producer has been around for a while, consistently gracing the world with glimpses of his deep knowledge of music, encapsulated in a prolific output of self-produced Jazz LPs, remixes and DJ mixes. With a consistent feel for the warm and organic, Fred contributes a summer themed mix to 5918mins. with mostly 80’s and 90’s mid-tempo low-fliers to be enjoyed at the beach or on road-trip. Situated somewhere between electro, street soul, afro-house, acid-disco, boogie-rap, hip-house and techno, this mix goes down like a buttery burgundy. Cheers!

Jaeger Mix #183
August 17th, 2022

Fredfades is the ultimate musical polymath. A record producer, DJ, label boss and artist, he’s got his fingers in so many pies in Oslo’s scene it’s hard to keep track of everything. Whether he’s rapping on- or producing tracks for Toyen Holding or working on his many Mutual Intentions’ affiliated projects, there’s always something happening in the world of Fredfades and it’s always different than the last.

It’s reflected in his DJ sets too, and whether, he’s playing high energy House, or rare Boogie records there’s always something unique that he brings to every situation. It was the same for this Jaeger mix. Going into deeper realms than we’ve heard him go in recent times, Fredfades delivers a mellow set, moving between pastoral textures and low-slung grooves. It evokes the early moments of a burgeoning dance floor with Fredfades programming a serene mood throughout his hour-long turn at decks.

The mix draws us into autumn with sonic hues of a dusky summer coming to an end, bringing to a close a busy season for our DJ. Touring a fair bit, in and outside of Norway, Fredfades has had a demanding schedule this summer, but the year is far from over for the mutual intentions man.

Tracklist:

Lootbeg - They Wonder Why (Jan Ketyel Remix) (Tieffrequent)
Dr. Rhythm - Paradise (Cold Blow Records)
Ex-T - Portal Vision (Kali Mix) (NAFF Recordings)

Fredfades - Live @ Radio80000

Oslo house boss and mad selector @fredfades turns up the volume for the latest edition with a mix of serious summer heat! Big tempos and big nineties prog energies mixed with deep burners from the golden years of Euro house.

Q. What inspiration did you draw upon when putting this mix together? Is there a sound, feeling, or time in dance music history that you channelled when putting this one together?

A. I kind of wanted to make a bit "summery" mix that contains a lot of the stuff I am playing these days. Loads of European house records from the mid nineties. Then also some US stuff of course, but definitely a lot of British, Italian and German things. 

Q. Are there any records in the mix that are especially close to your heart, or old favourites that you’ve been keeping up your sleeve for the right moment?

A. I mean there's one of my own songs in there, which I never did in a mix before, which makes it a bit special for me. It's the 'Summer of Love' cut from my new album 'Caviar'! 

Otherwise there's a few other things here that was discovered through other Norwegian deejays which always makes it a bit more precious to me than just finding it in a store or on the internet. Boomerang, PHD, Digitalis & Poligonheads was all bought out of the collection of a norwegian DJ named Alex Jangle.  

Q. What’s the latest with your own music and your Mutual Intentions label? The Caviar LP looked like it would have been a fun project to work on with so many great guests collaborating on that!

A. Caviar has been going surprisingly well on physical format, which is great to see! It's been a super fun process with a lot of good friends (and new friends!) joining in. I'm really happy how it all turned out. There's a bunch of new stuff coming soon as well! Both from me and a bunch of other artists!

It's been a while since I did a mix. Here's a new one! One and a half hour of my favourite modern & boogie sounds. This sounds more or less like the kind of stuff I would drop between 1 am and 3 am at me & Dirtyhans' Touchdown party at Ingensteds in Oslo .

Discrete Circuits with Fredfades

The scarily dedicated Norwegian record collector, DJ and music producer has spent over half his young life making speakers bleed one way or another. Operating under the Touchdown moniker, Fred is a purveyor of rare boogie and leg-jerking electronic modern soul gems through his never-ending series of mixes and club nights. Dense layers of samples from hard to find records, crisp drums and ruthless bass lines are the main ingredients of his signature sound. His lush soundscapes are a treat for anyone who loves jazzy Rhodes, soulful grooves and 80s synthesizer-nerdery.

FREDFADES | Boiler Room Oslo: Jaeger X Frædag

@fredfades

With thorough foundations in producing and collecting heavy driven cuts, Fredfades draws up a wonderful insight as to what you may hear at Touchdown - a local night run by DirtyHans and himself in Oslo. Fredfades is also an integral element of Mutual Intentions, a label and crew generating their own music and visual arts.

LIFE CLASSICS 28 FREDFADES

The Mutual Intentions member and KingUnderground Records regular delivers a vinyl mix of raw and freaky DIY deep house and techno cuts.
