In the dynamic world of the dance music, collaborations often bring together unique perspectives, resulting in tracks that resonate deeply with listeners. And Fred Again, the ingenious DJ and producer, joined forces with the talented artist Obongjayar to create a captivating new single titled "adore u".
This song is a harmonious blend of creativity and emotion, holds within it a story that speaks to the power of music to connect hearts and souls, and emerges as a harmonious fusion of Fred Again's intricate production skills and Obongjayar's soulful artistry.
Fred Again, known for his innovative approach to electronic music, breathed life into "adore u" by incorporating samples from Obongjayar's song "I Wish It Was Me", originally featured on his 2022 album "Some Nights I Dream of Doors."

The genesis of "adore u" is rooted in a heartwarming tale of familial affection. Fred undertook the journey of crafting this track as a tribute to his sister, a testament to the profound impact that personal relationships can exert on the creative process. As the elements of the song fell into place, an unexpected twist emerged – Obongjayar's contribution carried a parallel story, with the lyrics written by him originally intended for his own sibling, thus forging an unbreakable connection between the artists and their shared experiences.
The magnificence of "adore u" was showcased on an international stage as Fred Again performed the track at Glastonbury in June. The crowd was treated to a musical journey that encapsulated the essence of the song, connecting people through its heartfelt melodies. This initial live performance set the stage for what was to come.
Recently, Fred and Obongjayar united in Chicago for a live rendition of "adore u."

Through the skilled hands and creative minds of Fred and Obongjayar, "i adore u" stands as a testament to the beauty of collaboration, the strength of familial bonds, and the ability of music to touch hearts across the globe. As we continue to witness the evolution of this song and its impact, one thing remains clear – its melodies will continue to echo in the hearts of listeners, reminding us of all of the connective power of electronic dance music.
