Fritz Helder - Like a Jaguar

As his first solo venture, Fritz Helder has undoubtedly found his own sound, one that firmly grips, bounds and dominates the listener from the first kick drum. Here he presents his new video ‘Like A Jaguar’

Loaded up with sharp synths, nods to electro, and, unexpected but welcome twists, helping to foster curiosity of Fritz’s work and offering hints of further experimentation to come.
