Its heat suffuses me, and little sparks and snaps off it, bearing my mind away &#8211; back to old friends and remembered joys. This glowing kernel resides inside me because I have seen <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/fatfreddysdropnz\">Fat Freddy\u2019s Drop <\/a>play live. I was late. I missed the support act. I scarcely had time to buy a beer, and as soon as I had something wonderful happened in my ears.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span>They played two consecutive nights at the Camden Roundhouse and I was at the second \u2013 the last night of their UK tour before they went home to play the Aussie\/NZ summer circuit. I loved their album before I went in, and I knew they had a reputation for being great live, but even so I was blown away. In case you don\u2019t already know, they\u2019re a Kiwi seven-piece dub and reggae outfit, that have released one live and one studio album, and they\u2019re big\u2026 Sorry, make that BIG down under.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span>Their music is crafted. This isn\u2019t something that\u2019s been thrown together during a drunken evening in someone\u2019s garage \u2013 this has been worked on, pieced, built and blended together. Usually their songs will have a big, warm, deep bass line, something that doesn\u2019t seem complex, but then as the layers of music \u2013 a drumbeat, some vibes, maybe a flute, a soft vocal \u2013 come in, an unsuspected complexity evolves, the head of the bar isn\u2019t where you thought it was to begin with, and the key\u2019s changed and you\u2019re surrounded by this lush, slow, throbbing <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mathmos\">mathmos<\/a> of sound. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span>They\u2019re not a band that will make you fight your way to the front to get your head down into the mosh pit. They\u2019re not a band that will keep you bouncing like a frog on speed for ninety minutes. Fat Freddy\u2019s Drop are a band who will wrap you up in music, draw you into their performance with textured, fluid, beautifully engineered noises, and a togetherness, a tightness that comes only from practice and professionalism. More than this, their live performances are unique and structured in such a way that they have a definite culmination \u2013 an apex that is all the more significant and memorable for the fact that their drops are few and far between. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span>The Roundhouse gig I attended took the songs I knew and elaborated upon them, with different takes on each. There are sections in their tracks where they take the rolling beat they\u2019ve layered from ten different instruments weaving in and out, strip it back, and then put everything together for the most grinsome, satisfying drop. There was a section during which an acoustic tune had been spun into a long, pulsing, almost trance-like piece of music, totally different from the album version, and it was only after spinning the crowd into this ten-minute trance that they stopped\u2026 and let it drop. <img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-583 lazyload\" style=\"margin: 5px;\" title=\"the-band\" src=\"http:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/fat-freddys-drop-reggae-band1-300x223.jpg\" alt=\"the-band\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/fat-freddys-drop-reggae-band1-300x223.jpg 300w, https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/fat-freddys-drop-reggae-band1.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span>Everyone.

It was a musical epiphany. It was like Jake and Elwood seeing the light. I wanted to do backflips. I can\u2019t adequately describe how good their live show is. Even to describe the fun and antic japery of their sweaty, singlet wearing trombone player is more than I can do, let alone the whole glory of their horn section.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span>Fat Freddy\u2019s studio album is called \u2018Based On a True Story\u2019.
