Nils Frahm


Here's the opening track from the new mixtape by Bag Raiders, released earlier today. The track by Nils Frahm isn't like anything I've ever posted before. The amazing ambient sounds from the German composer speak best for themselves.


Nils Frahm - More


More is taken from Frahm's latest album, Felt. It appears that Frahm stumbled upon the ideal sound for the pieces while trying to be a good neighbor. In his attempt to work late into the night, yet respect his neighbours, Frahm designed methods of dampening the sound of his piano. Using the damper pedal, placing fabric over the strings of the piano, playing very lightly so as not to disturb his neighbours slumber.  Doing so, he created the sound for this record.  And it’s stunning.
