The second entry in Fred Again's Actual Life series continues his diaristic method, stitching scraps of voice notes, video clips, and overheard moments into euphoric house that aches as much as it lifts. Recorded across 2021, it captures a year of tentative reemergence, with 'Billie (Loving Arms)' reworking Billie Ray Martin's 1994 vocal into something enormous and 'Hannah (The Sun)' glowing right behind it. Few producers make dance music this openly sentimental without tipping into schmaltz, and fewer still make strangers' offhand phrases land like choruses. Pressed on clear vinyl.
