‘States Of Bliss’ is the next album by Fred P, his third full length in the last year, following ‘Oasis’ and ‘Abstract Soul’ and the most expansive of the three. In the club or listening at home, Fred’s music makes perfect sense on either side, as 'States Of Bliss' beautifully exhibits. Produced on the move in hotels and airports, as well as Fred's studio in Berlin, ‘States Of Bliss’ is described by Fred as “a collection of musical imaginations that truly inspire one to actions of positivity and balance, incorporating a range of emotive moods to create an environment for expansion within a sonic structure.” Expanding a little more on this subject, Fred says…. “Whatever music suits your fantasy, the pacing of it makes you feel better and it inspires you to some form of action. It could be dancing, working out, it could be doing your laundry, but it inspires you to some form of movement. With that movement, then your mind starts to open up, and maybe you were having a blue day, and now it’s a sunny day. With the music I play and especially with the music that I make, even if it might seem melancholic, it’s for the specific purpose of releasing that melancholy, and looking toward the possibility of the opposite.” Within the two parts States Of Bliss becomes a musical landscape spanning dance floor grooves such as ‘In The Flow’ with a vocal sample by Cassy, to the psychedelic acid jazz of ‘Live Your way’ moving into the meditative ambient goodness of ‘Awakening Desire’. There’s also the jazz track ‘NY’ recorded in 2012 that was remixed for the legendary Selected compilation. Not leaving any realm unnoticed, ‘River’ is a sought after soundscape and ‘Elevated States’ see’s Fred delves into trippy electronica.
