DAKRED’s New Album: Can Bass Music Help You Heal a Broken Heart?
Rising DJ and producer DAKRED has burst onto the electronic music scene with his debut album, DAKRED. The deeply personal album combines melodic bass and dubstep into a story of love, loss, and self-discovery.
In his own words, DAKRED explains the album to be his most personal record yet: “After many years of development as an artist and as a person, I knew that this album is my tale, and it was deserving of being self-titled. It tells the story of the chaos, the ugliness, and the lessons learned along the way.”
The album is a narrative, charting the stages of a failed relationship. Each song is a page in his life, exploring weakness and growth. Inspired by Alfred Lord Tennyson’s famous line—”It is generally considered better to have experienced love, even if it ends in loss, than to have never loved at all“—DAKRED uses his own experiences to craft music that speaks directly to the listener.
Musically, DAKRED induce reflection and tenderness and bring about moments of solidity. Such juxtaposition is reflective of the emotional dichotomies of the album—loss against hope, unrest balanced by lucidity.
The fans have already begun praising DAKRED for its sincerity and depth. All the social media sites are abuzz with posts that articulate how the album talks to their own experiences of love and loss. The ability to take raw emotion and combine it with ground-breaking production has made DAKRED a rising star in electronic music.
