Sep 9, 2024While “Ten Days” is as full of collaborations and other voices as the multiple projects he’s released since the last installment of “Actual Life,” it truly feels like a return to his greatest strengths.

Sep 9, 2024Does ‘ten days’ elevate the modern dance album? It unequivocally does. It’s built from connection and collaboration. It explores the contours of the dancefloor whilst never forgoing its gushy, human centre.

Sep 9, 2024He pushes deeper and comes up with something that’s both poignant and fun in equal measure – a solid gold record that leans into the little moments and produces pure, emotional magic that will ensure many more “biggg mad crazy” times in Fred Again..’s future ahead.

Sep 9, 2024Ten Days is an electronic album more than a dance album—it’s meant for listening, and even when he foregrounds the beats, they’re always part of a larger and often busy picture.

Sep 9, 2024Crisply produced and big on strong melodies, it’s an album that does its job, even if it doesn’t quite do the job you suspect its author wants it to.

Sep 10, 2024The tracks that feel like direct tributes to older, better tunes tend to fare better than the majority of the album, which is hugely sentimental but never sufficiently sharpens its edges to counteract all that mush.
