This is the debut album from o F F Love. Autotune, echo and reverb -- slow heart beats and minor chords -- o F F Love's music is fragile. Hidden behind a Ying Yang-print scarf and transforming his voice, o F F Love is talking from a distance. However, he couldn't be more direct than in his manner of sharing his feelings with his minimal productions and repetitions: not looking for perfection, but emotions. Feelings are shared, almost forgetting about privacy or discretion. o F F Love performances might often make some audience members feel like a voyeur. Mixing his obsessions for boy bands of the '90s, the vulnerability and extreme emotion in Arthur Russell's and Panda Bear's vocals, and the excessive use of autotune by current RnB artists, o F F Love creates a heart-rending minimal RnB in disguise, floating between a kaleidoscope of ambient sounds and a more noisy cataclysm of emotions. Probably Love is an open diary about what can be mistaken for love, presenting o F F as a broken dreamer, a wounded lover, missing the One. o F F Love released 2 EPs in 2011 (Disenchanted Fairytale and Secret), and played/performed in Europe supporting CocoRosie, How To Dress Well, Creep, Butterclock, oOoOO and Sin Fang, but also in some less conventional venues such a boxing ring, a bed and on top of a construction site for the opening of an art show in Berlin.
