FREnchfire - 'North' / 'South' HNH037


FREnchfire - 'North' / 'South'
Released 6.24.2013

Introducing Alex Lowther Harris aka FREnchfire. The multi-talented 24 year old producer from Manchester also writes and paints when he's not working a job as a warden for the National Trust. Since 2006 he's been making a smooth hybrid of Future-Garage, House and Ambient music that's heavily influenced by the UK Bass and American electronic music culture.

Drawing inspiration from artists like Burial, The Knife, Koreless, James Blake and Shlomo the subtleties are apparent in his work. With a current release out on Basslight Music called 'Chasing' and more in the works be sure to keep an eye out for more quality music from FREnchfire.

Juno Download has done a nice review of the release and this is what they had to say:

 "Spawned from the Manchester collective Generic Greeting, Frenchfire is a 23-year-old self-proclaimed 'ambient bass music' producer. Maybe it was his production skills or maybe it was his sense of humour (he named a recent track after his favourite season of Mad Men), but either way he's come to the attention of San Francisco's Hot N Heavy, who now release this two-tracker. Both tracks are impressively realised, with "North" being an almost beatless ethereal whirl, while "South" introduces gentle garage-flavoured beats into the equation, resulting in a deep and sensuous sound. Classy."
