Fred’s music is what I imagine goes through someone’s mind as their life is flashing before their eyes. Timeless music.

[@obrey__]

It’s like seeing your whole life before your eyes and realizing you almost exclusively remember love. All the feelings for the people and places were different types of love. That’s what it feels like to me. “Your love envelopes me.”

[@martins1254]

before they die.

[@brandonpolack]

accurate way to describe this

[@joelmehomiee]

From my experience, it’s what you feel when you have an outer body experience. When your life is flashing before your eyes it’s much more frantic. When you think you’ve died there’s this period of stillness and weightlessness that I would align with Fred’s music for sure.

It's funny. One of the reason I love him so much is that I am autistic and music is the main way I connect with my emotions. I really can't interpret my emotions in my day to day life. Fred's music has allowed me to experience more complex emotions that I didn't think possible. It's incredible. I don't know how he does it, but man.

[@eafortson]

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.

[@ConstantThrowing]

@@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 is first KZbin 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.

This is my first comment too and after reading yours I just went through your SoundCloud and Spotify and actually loved your work! And for this I love Fred even more! Connecting people, inspiring artists and creating true masterpieces! ❤ P.s. I am hoping to come back to this comment in a few years when you are famous like Fred, with the "big smile on my face" :)

I don't think writers block exists, just lack of motivation because when the motivation is there the music flows.

[@TeddyGears]

"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.

[@amberwoodrow4597]

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.

The talent here is unreal. This music is so moving. The song at 17 almost moved me to tears. I may not listen to his music much still, but I have so much respect for this gifted man. Truly this was an amazing show. Please do some more music like this…. It is so powerful. Thank you so much for the amazing performance.

Best Tiny Desk set since Mac Miller. I was bawling, not even 5 minutes into this. ❤ I remember randomly coming across his music during the darkest days of the pandemic and for him to open with “Kyle (I Found You)” just brought me back to that time and how happy I was to hear new, refreshing and deeply personal music that I think we can all relate to. 🥲

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.

A constant state of depression then Sept 14 22 Fred dropped Danielle (smile on my face), then Oct 28th dropped Actual Life 3, and for the last part of the year, things felt like they were going to be better. I was engulfed in Fred's music which felt like the hug I needed at 3 am to not feel alone. Im way better now and my life is back on track. Im at the point I want to cross international waters to see this man live. "We gone make it through"

Not only does it speak to how I found him that night with a calm across his face, or how I found him in the last two months leading up when he was starting to overcome his depression and really start to enjoy his existence, but it speaks to how I found the impact he made on me . Thank you for that.
