Fredrika Rei, the emerging Swedish/Finnish artist and producer, unveils her debut EP “less depression, more dancing,” an enthralling journey into the depths of electro-pop expression. Born in Finland, raised in Belgium, and now based in Stockholm, Rei’s multicultural background infuses her music with a rich tapestry of influences and perspectives.
The EP serves as a collection of soulful tracks released over the past year, culminating in the crowd-pleaser bonus track “think about.” Rei’s solo artistry shines through as she navigates themes of romance, creativity, self-discovery, and sensuality, inviting listeners to embark on a journey of exploration and transformation. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Florence and the Machine and 90s Madonna, Rei’s music transcends genre boundaries, embracing the philosophy of “Panta Rei” – everything flows, everything changes. Her sound evolves organically, mirroring the ebbs and flows of life’s ever-changing currents. Notable singles like “So It Goes,” a clubby romantic anthem, and “The Human Experience,” a dramatic disco-tale, showcase Rei’s evolution as both a songwriter and producer. With each track, she delves deeper into the complexities of the human experience, offering a glimpse into her inner world.
Recorded in studios across Stockholm and co-produced with talented collaborators like Adam Dylte, Anton Öberg, and Johanna Green, “less depression, more dancing” exudes a sense of authenticity and creative freedom.
