Such a beautiful piece. A favourite of my entire family's.

Fantastic journey! Love your use of pedal and how the notes sustain in to each other. 

After the loss of my Mom on Jan 26th 2016. Music helped me cope with her death. My Dad died Nov 13th 2008. So both of my Parents are gone. They had good lives but they are missed everyday. And when I came across this song of prayer it reminds me of all the great times I had with my Parents. Thank You Chad Lawson

Soft, sweet and gentle like a light morning breeze. With gratitude, love & light <3

Here's my track for Piano Day 2021.

This piano song is for my wife. In a few days we're 10 years together as a couple. That's the reason why this song gets its songtitle: Ten Years

composed and played by Koen Janssen

Ten Years

Elpis means hope in greek (hellenic).
I begun creating sketches of Elpis as part of an acoustic-electronic collaboration with AnantaSound, at the beginning of summer. As the days went by, I found myself getting immersed in the motifs that sprung. I tried to keep the piano track relatively airy so additional sound could fill up the space. By the end of summer, a friend of mine and exceptional violinist, offered to record a few tracks. So this is an acoustic version of Elpis. I hope you enjoy it!

A fresh improvisation based on another motif played by Arty (which, actually, opens the piece). The artwork is Arty's quick sketch drawn for this piece.

I am happy to announce the release of my 2nd original piano album! I consider the pieces included in this album to be my best compositions, recorded in 2013. The album has some tracks, which are not included in this set.

I hope you will enjoy them as much as I enjoyed playing them. Your support is very much appreciated as it brings me closer to achieving one of my dreams - to have a real acoustic grand piano. Thank you for your continuous appreciation of my music!

Pre-order 'Trance Frendz' on LP/DL: www.erasedtapes.com/store/index/ERATP081
or digitally iTunes: snip.ftpromo.net/trancefrendz

Having been available exclusively as the second disc to 2015's 'Collaborative Works', Ólafur Arnalds and Nils Frahm's improvised audio recordings 'Trance Frendz', taken from their 45-minute studio film of the same name, have been given their own vinyl release – out March 4th, 2016.

Prior to a string of collaborative Erased Tapes releases, which include 2012's 'Stare' 10” and last year’s 'Life Story Love and Glory' 7” and 'Loon' 12” – compiled on the 'Collaborative Works' 2-CD set, Ólafur Arnalds and Nils Frahm spent many hours together in their studios across Berlin and Reykjavik. Both have carved out genre-defying musical careers and formed unique live shows, creating a fan base loyal to their prolific output.

During a session at Durton Studio in Berlin last summer, Nils and Ólafur invited Alexander Schneider and his camera to document it. The recording continued long after the first take, stretching out into the next day until, eventually, several new improvisations had been recorded in 8 hours with no overdubs or edits. The unexpected nature in which these pieces had been created was reminiscent of their first on-stage improvisation many years ago. It became immediately clear how special these songs were.

"At the end of the night we had all this music that sounded unfamiliar even to us, loudly asking to be included in this collection.”

Originally made available as a 45-minute film on their joint website (www.arnaldsfrahm.com) last September, 'Trance Frendz' will be available to own on vinyl from March 4th, 2016.

Press for their 'Collaborative Works':

'A particularly joyous wash of slinky percussion and juddering layers' (8/10) – Clash

'An enchanting listen. The bar for a Lads' Night In has just been raised a few notches' (7/10) – Drowned In Sound

‘This is music for slowing down the pace of modern life... An immersive listening experience is guaranteed, while we must hope Frahm and Arnalds go on ‘holiday’ together more in future, and don’t forget to take their musical instruments.’ ★★★★ – MusicOMH

'A collection of gorgeously intimate piano compositions and eye-opening synth pieces, each never aggressive but always powerfully poignant' (8/10) – Under The Radar

'What Collaborative Works offers is something strange: a shared world created by two mad geniuses. Long may Arnalds and Frahm tinker' (8/10) – PopMatters

'Collaborative Works further proves just how natural a fit Ólafur Arnalds and Nils Frahm are together' – Resident Advisor

Song of Prayer

Like a gentle rain in spring, she wants to be happy. Blue skys are permeated by sporadic clouds, giving chilly reminders of the past. Green buds on frail branches timidly risk growth in hope of achieving full bloom once again someday. April showers bring May flowers, at least so we hope.

ALBUM INFO:

"The Idea Of You" is the first of a trio of neoclassical solo piano albums composed, performed, and produced by Andrew Souter. These projects have been two decades in the making and represent a return to traditional music composition, engaging song-writing, and the pure passion of emotional story-telling. This Andrew's most personal and intimate music. It is quite literally a love project. We hope it may it help you on your journey, as it has us...

The Idea Of You Cover Art "The Idea Of You" is music inspired by the spirit of Eros and all of its blessings as well as its tribulations. It explores the vicissitudes of romantic love, the delicate seasons and contour of life, and all the lessons learned along the way. Themes of desire, passion, limerence, romantic love, idolatry, jealousy, envy, loss, regret, forgiveness, acknowledgment, appreciation, acceptance, and eventually glimpses of true understanding permeate the work. It attempts to communicate that which so many of us can never quite communicate properly with words. It is an open apology for the clumsy mistakes we all make when coming to maturity in learning how to care selflessly for another human being. It is a gentle reminder as to what is most important in life, as well as an invocation to continuously seek self-improvement regarding our understanding of such matters.
