ThanksFriedrich drops new EP

ThanksFriedrich is a versatile producer, musician and artist who’s ventured beyond the realms of conventional sound to craft a stunning musical experience that reflects the depths of human emotions. Emerging from a childhood enamoured by music, ThanksFriedrich’s journey is intertwined with personal challenges and an awakening realisation that life is fleeting. Following the tragic passing of his father, ThanksFriedrich found solace and expression in music, channeling his feelings into compositions that reverberate with a profound sense of existence. As he transitioned from a mundane city job to a part-time endeavour, music became his canvas for painting melodies of raw and authentic sentiment.

His brand new release, the EP titled All Too Human, serves as a mesmerising exploration of human emotions, taking listeners on an moving journey that traverses love, societal challenges, anguish and ultimately, hope. His ability to craft dense soundscapes that pulse with a raw and soulful energy showcases his prowess as an electronica artist. Influenced by the likes of Rufus Du Sol and Fred Again, ThanksFriedrich’s compositions are an escape that simultaneously confronts life’s stark realities.

The EP unfurls with “The Word Is Love,” a poetic composition woven with warm synths and a hopeful undertone. ThanksFriedrich’s charming indie sound intertwines seamlessly with electronic instrumentation, while his captivating vocal leads paint a vivid emotional landscape. “Paper Thrones” challenges the insatiable desire for materialism that permeates society. With its hypnotic dance energy, softly pulsing synth tones, and ethereal vocals wrapped in reverb, the track captures an atmospheric texture that holds a mirror to the capitalistic norms we often blindly follow.

“The Night” follows, an exploration of collective yearning for freedom, tinged with a sense of anguish. Transitioning from this, the EP dives into themes of loss and death. “It’s Okay To Feel The Pain” is a poignant and emotionally enriched composition, drawing from ThanksFriedrich’s deeply personal experiences. The song reflects raw authenticity and pays homage to his late father’s perspective during his final days.

The closing anthem “The Sun Will Shine Again” uplifts the spirit with an emphasis on hope for the future. While initially posing as a song of profound sadness, its underlying message revolves around self-awareness and the knowledge that brighter days lie ahead.

Recorded with Sebastian De Souza, ThanksFriedrich’s All Too Human EP is a heartfelt tribute to his late father, released on what would have been his birthday. The EP’s sonic landscape is a showcase of ThanksFriedrich’s ability to craft a musical experience that transcends the boundaries of genre. His melodic tapestry invites listeners to dive deep into their own emotions, while the intricate narratives within each track create a synergy of sound and sentiment.

As ThanksFriedrich’s discography gains another enchanting addition, All Too Human stands as an invitation to embark on a sonic voyage. With each track, listeners are urged to confront the intricacies of life and embrace emotions in all their complexity. Through his music, ThanksFriedrich extends an understanding hand, allowing us to feel the depth of human experience in its entirety.
