Written during one of Patrick Lauzon’s darkest periods, “Fixed” is a statement on finding clarity, self-forgiveness, and your own strength. The electronic song begins instantly with a burst of strong vocals, and the laser beam is straightforward with minimal autotune on Lauzon’s voice.
The production, with its clean instrumentation, groovy basslines, and tight drums, strikes that sweet spot between intimacy and energy. It is written in A minor, and just as deep is its story. But despite its literal roots in hard times, the song never feels heavy. It instead pulsates with a sense of rebirth, a reminder that even the darkest moments can be catalysts for change.
The optimism in the beat complements the openness present in Lauzon’s lyrics, which makes for a track that is as infectious as it is personal. “Fixed” sets itself apart by the way in which Patrick can weave meaning with accessibility. It’s a song to dance to, but it’s also one to stare into the void with.
That duality is part of what makes it such a standout in today’s electronic landscape, and proof that heartfelt storytelling and electronic art can be easy bedfellows. Ultimately, “Fixed” is also about the ongoing process of becoming whole. With this release, Patrick Lauzon establishes himself as a fearless artist who’s willing to wear his heart on his sleeve, providing an immersive experience.
