Nils Frahm - Felt - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Piano Day 2021 sees Nils Frahm surprise the world with his Erased Tapes debut. Wait, what? How? Anyone who has seen the trail blazing sonic pioneer live will know Nils likes to deadpan a joke. Graz is in fact the first s udio album he recorded for the tag back in 2009, that somehow remained a secret... until now. Graz is a moment of time at the very beginning of Nils' quiet revolution. The essential genius is already evident; the harmonic language of classical, and the immediacy of jazz. Nils seems to pull down each idea moment by moment, gently, to not scare away the muse. Album Tracks 1. Lighter 2. O I End 3. Because This Must Be 4. Kurzum 5. And Om 6. Hammers 7. Crossings 8. About Coming and Leaving 9. Went Missing

Nils Frahm releases a new double album, Old Friends New Friends, released by Leiter, the tag he set up with his manager, Felix Grimm. The collection gathers together 23 solo piano tracks recorded between 2009 and 2021, almost all hitherto unreleased but, for one reason or another, omitted from previous albums and projects. Neither quite a new LP nor exactly a compilation, it offers Inchan anatomy of all my ways of thinking musically and playing,Inch Frahm says, adding with a smile, InchMaybe I could say it's an album I worked on for twelve years, and finally I have enough material?Inch Album Tracks 1. 4 33 (A Tribute to John Cage) 2.
