Prolific and long-serving Canadian producer Fred Everything is never one to rest on his laurels, but it s been no less than 10 years since he last released an album (the classic Lost Together on Om Records). Now he finally returns to the long player format on his own Lazy Days label with the appropriately titled Long Way Home, a widescreen exploration of his sound via all manner of styles. There s gorgeous broken beat and neo soul, slow-strutting electronic disco and modern boogie, and that s just the A side of this expansive 12inch track album. Warm, immaculately produced and unafraid of embracing pop as much as underground styles, it s a masterful return from Mr. Everything.
