Something extraordinary happened during Fred again..‘s USB tour stop in Dublin, and now the rest of us get to experience it. Apple Music has just dropped a 7-minute exclusive clip that captures the raw energy and transcendent atmosphere of that night—and it’s the only full-length show film from the entire tour.
The clip is built around Lights Burn Dimmer, an unreleased track that samples Jamie T, and it immediately pulls you into the heart of what made these USB shows so special. At the center of everything is a massive, breathing installation created by visual artist Boris Acket—a kinetic fabric structure that literally moves and shifts around the audience as the music evolves. It’s not just a backdrop; it’s a living, pulsing element of the performance that responds to every beat and builds the emotional landscape of the entire set.
Fred again.. designed the USB tour around a simple but powerful idea: being completely present. These weren’t shows meant to be captured on phones or experienced secondhand—they were meant to be felt in the room, in that exact moment. But Apple Music found a way to bottle that lightning. They live-streamed audio from select stops in Lyon, Toronto, and Mexico City on Apple Music 1, then released the performances in Spatial Audio, essentially dropping listeners right into the middle of the crowd.
This Dublin clip is just a taste of what’s coming. The full Apple Music Live film premieres as part of the platform’s New Year’s Eve celebration, which includes an absolutely stacked 24-hour Apple Music Club radio takeover. The lineup reads like a dream festival bill: ¥ØUUK€¥UK1MATUK€ ¥UK1MAT U, DJ Snake, The Brothers Macklovitch, Cloonee, Shygirl, Derrick Carter, SPFDJ, Disco Lines, and more.
