FRISO

In the artist's words:

For the fact that FRISO is only in his early 20s, the Hamburg native is everywhere and nowhere.
nowhere. After the English-language solo EP "Lost Tapes" in 2022, the newcomer dropped his first songs in German last year with "Serpentinen" and "Schon Ok".
German language. With these, he made it onto the Artists to
Watch list of Amazon Music Breakthrough and DIFFUS magazine.

As a live DJ for Paula Hartmann, FRISO is on stage during her completely sold-out
tours as well as during festival shows from splash! to MELT and Juicy Beats. FRISO has just released the album "tooloud vol.1 (levmig)" together with his artist collective Tooloudfortheroom - and in October he released his first German-language EP "10qm".

In order to understand the productivity and bustling nature of the early twenty-something
you might need to take a look at his biography. Born in 2000, FRISO grew up on the outskirts of Hamburg and discovered music at an early age. Glockenspiel at 5, piano at 6, school orchestra, choir - and finally his first DAW and his own tracks. Since 2020, FRISO has been working with a newcomer who has just moved to Hamburg to study. Her name is Paula Hartmann. FRISO not only becomes her live DJ, but also performs in her supporting program.

In the same year, the artist:inside collective Tooloudfortheroom is formed from two circles of friends.
Tooloudfortheroom is formed from two groups of friends, including FRISO, ELEF, ghostboo, lenzy, moé and Sant as well as the producers Lawin, Juri and SOMA plus the videographers Finn Dubbeld and Tomke, but also DJ Babyblade and the creative Ramin Haskan. Parties and raves turn into a DIY studio and the first releases. These included FRISO's first, still English EP "Lost Tapes" in 2022, which, after features with Tooloudfortheroom members ELEF and moé, will be followed this year by the first EP release with German-language songs.

The title, "10 qm", is no coincidence: "In other songs of mine
or on feature parts, I've often talked about these ten square meters," explains FRISO. "Probably because it was the size of my old shared room and I worked on a lot of things there in my home studio. For me, the 10 square meters are a kind of protected space where everything can and may take place - but as soon as the door to this room opens, it all flows out into the world and is accessible to everyone."

A closeness and intimacy that you can hear in each of the six songs on the "10 qm" EP.
Somewhere between pop and rap, sometimes fragile, then completely at home again, FRISO staggers
FRISO staggers through the time of his life. Sometimes at the edges, then again in the middle
the songs take you into a world between a nostalgic look back and a dreamy look at what lies ahead. Between lights of gold and the last drop in the bottle, between the last breath and a tailwind that carries you into infinity.
