A green music product

After releasing their first album “Nature’s Songs“ on CD, FRÉ decided not to release any more vinyl or CDs until a real, biodegradable alternative is available. “WE RISE” is therefore being released as an art-edition, limited to 315 copies, that avoids all plastic. The limited edition is an extensive work of art, printed on the highest-quality recycled paper, which makes the theme of the album tangible and adds a whole new visual layer to the music. With the same format as a typical LP sleeve, it also fits perfectly in record collections. Designed by FRÉ’s drummer Lukas ‘Bobby’ Büning, FRÉ proofs that a modern, green music product can keep up with even the most ambitious collectors editions.

This limited art-edition received the 3voor12 award in the category 'Best Artwork' in 2020.

Download code, 16 postcards, designed individually for each song, lyrics, credits and liner notes, included.
