London, England's Fridge are no strangers to critical and fanatical praise. Ever since their inception and debut release in 1997, the powerful young trio has grown up and expanded, as an eager audience and a fickle British press waited for them to stumble over their success and prove to be just another flash in the pan. With the release of their fourth and most highly anticipated album, "Happiness," the band exhales and raises the bar yet again. Fusing the cluttered electronic textures that dominated their    [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. Before Four Tet was remixing Radiohead and Coldplay and before Adem was performing with David Byrne and Fairport Convention, they were breaking new ground as Fridge, a trio formed in 1996 with fellow schoolmate Sam Jeffers. After three critically acclaimed albums, they're back with The Sun, their most celebrated album yet. It's a dense, aggressive record that casually blends post-punk, left-field funk, free jazz, folk, noise, and Krautrock into one sound that, despite the years and each   [ read more ]

Fridge's music playfully skated all over the musical map, jumping from bashing lo-fi punk to sublime expanses of downtempo dance with equal enthusiasm. With their label (Output Recordings) now defunct, and Fridge having spawned no less than three successful side projects (Four Tet, Adem, and Kieran Hebden's collaborations with jazz legend Steve Reid), it was time to release a band-curated collection of their most memorable tracks from those wildly prolific years.

Recording experimental music with a simple guitar/bass/drums setup and little use of modern electronics wasn't entirely a novel idea in the mid-'90s, but it was quite rare in England. Whether enforced by design or necessity, the format proved an excellent vehicle for creativity in Fridge, which featured three individual voices attempting to translate musical ideas with limited equipment and skills (but certainly growing facility as musicians).
