MUTEK 2024 | Fred Everything, Innovating in What Makes People Dance

by Salima Bouaraour

Frédéric Blais aka Fred Everything is a pillar of the Montreal electronic music scene. His career, built up over 25 years, celebrates two birds with one stone at the Mutek Festival. Producer, DJ and manager of the Lazy Days Recordings label, Fred always concocts emotionally rich live sets that speak to as many people as possible. His ability to bring people together, while never neglecting innovation, is a technical feat of ingenuity that delivers refined, well-crafted sounds that are easy to listen to.

For the Nocturne 4 program presented at SAT, the crowd was treated to this classic: electronic music tinged with jazz, soul, downtempo and deep house. His album, Love, Care, Kindness & Hope , was released last May, and we were treated to a live presentation of the material.

Our favorite Montrealer delivered a magnificent performance that the mutékians tried to thwart with their hips. All arms were raised in celebration of one another in a message of love and serenity. A soaring, comforting live set. It really was.
