Freddy Freshly is among the well-nigh active and fertile American resistance dance music artists, having released to a greater extent than a one C records on a dozen different labels in less than half a x. Born and bred in Freshly York, Fresh's refer is more oft associated with the Minneapolis diorama, to which he relocated in the tardily '80s after kick-starting a cacoethes for rap and theatre practice of medicine output. Newly formed his longest-running data track disk label, Analogue Recordings, in Minneapolis, and his label empire has since fully grown to let in a horde of sublabels (first Butterbeat and Electromotive force, and and so Socket and Boriqua), as well as Analog's U.K. arm. In rise to power to a ontogenesis stateside audience, Freshly is also single of the few contemporaneous non-Detroit techno/electro musicians to have a strong European chase, and his records for Experimental, Harthouse, and Dino Paul Crocetti "Biochip C" Damm's Analgesic label deliver strengthened his outside comportment. Although Freddy's spill story has included tracks in just about every vogue from rap and menage to techno and spell, his roots and to the highest degree systematically pursued affectedness repose in electro; his records boom on abuzz modular parallel noises and resolutely unclean production techniques, resulting in a decided, in a flash recognizable brand of the skinny, lower limit, reasonably experimental terpsichore medicine.
Although Newly grew up a gothic rock/new wave dose nut, a trip to the "boogie-woogie land" Bronx with his girlfriend (later his married woman) in 1984 introduced him to the palmy N.Y.C. rap opinion. Like a shot enamored, Fresh began collection DJ tapes (Shep Pettibone, Jeff Robert Mills, Frankie Bones, anything he could stimulate his work force on) and, of row, records -- everything from Jonzun Gang and Newcleus to Liquid state Liquid and Cerrone, Peak Withers and Caterpillar Stevens -- and his collecting has since fully grown to over 10,000 hard (devising his slope gigs as a DJ a bit easier). Fresh's first home usage behind the boards came via Bronx legends Boogie-woogie Devour Productions, with Fred remixing a skip for a B-side shed (although salutary hazard finding it, and Fred recommends you don't attack!). From on that point, Freddy began piecing together a studio, assemblage many of the antediluvian parallel synths that give his records their distinct, nigh studio-jam feel (he mixes altogether his tracks live). In 1992, subsequently releasing debut singles on Nu Groove and Silvo Tancredis' Experimental imprint, Newly established his depression tag, Analog, to slop his have tracks. The label and its offshoots feature since attracted such heavy name calling as Norman Thomas Heckman, Tim Zachary Taylor, Cari Lekebusch, DJ Slip, the Bassbin Gemini, and Biochip C. In 1995, New inked a shrink with noted High German techno judge Harthouse, and his irregular uncut, Circumstantially Classic, was released by the label's U.K. arm in of late 1996, with a Harthouse U.S. reissue followers close behind. His third album, The End True Category Humankind, followed on Harthouse Eye Q. Several singles and a shuffle record album followed until the outlet of his side by side full-length, Music for Swingers in 2001. Additionally, Fresh has released records through Wisconsin-based acid stronghold Drop Bass Net, Labworks, and noted High German electro label Electrecord.
