Welcome to Fat Freddys Drop Official YouTube TV exclusive drops & classics from the vaults. Internationally regarded as one of the world’s finest live draws, Freddys hail from Aotearoa New Zealand, South Pacific. Hi-tek soul pirates, resolutely independent. Founded in the club scene in Wellington in 1999, Freddys sound draws inspiration from almost every part of the black music lexicon. Soul drenched vocals and jazz harmonies collide with tape delays and echo chambers, underpinned by a rhythm section as comfortable laying down a throbbing, techy soundscape as they are a swampy blues stomp. It’s a potent mixture of virtuosity and diaphragm-wrecking digital sonics.
