Chicago-based DJ, producer, and live instrumentalist COFRESI emerges from the shadows with his first original production of the year, “Another Day.” Hot on the trail of his recent collaboration with Denver talent Maddy O’Neal, “Matcha,” and "Still Believe," a stellar stint with frequent GRIZ collaborators VIBELINE, COFRESI teases a big project in the works with the new, bass-forward cut.
Continuously pushing the boundaries of his sound, COFRESI has carved a niche somewhere between bass, dubstep, and house where he blends natural instruments with contemporary, ethereal elements. His dynamic and refreshingly versatile live digital-acoustic setup has seen him take over a myriad of stages including North Coast Music Festival, Summers End Smokeout, Chop Shop Chicago, The Homie Collective Campout, Biscoland, and Solshine Reverie, amongst many others. His diverse productions have seen him collaborate with several revered artists in crossover spaces, including Matisyahu, Too Close To Touch, Autograf, Bass Physics, Flamingosis, and many more.
“Another Day takes you on a sonic ride with organic instrumentation juxtaposed with a modern & ethereal bass element. The tune gives the feeling of existing in the present with a hint of daydreaming & manifesting new energy. With nods to many artists who have inspired me over the years, this track is a great first taste of my newer & more refined production style.”
- COFRESI
An ode to a few of his main sources of inspiration over the years - Odesza, Big Gigantic, Gramatik, Medasin, Pretty Lights, and Mr. Carmack- “Another Day” finds COFRESI at his most optimistic. Clocking in at nearly 3 minutes of bliss, COFRESI layers a collection of vocal chops with a slow-step bassline drenched in late 2000s nostalgia. Ringing true to its name, “Another Day” represents a new dawn for COFRESI as he steps into the marvel of what he has coming next. Next up, COFRESI will take over the decks at various venues and events across the US for the remainder of the summer - the Homie Collective Campout in September, and the Big Fam Festival in October.

COFRESI is also known for his high-energy live sets which demonstrate his skill in integrating versatile percussion and Ableton. Since his debut release, he has performed his distinctive live/electronic hybrid set at numerous internationally acclaimed festivals and is certainly an artist to watch for.
