CONTEXT: Berlin-based pianist Nils Frahm is already a firebrand in the modern classical world, collaborating with contemporaries such as Peter Broderick, Ólafur Arnalds and Anne Müller. His unconventional approach to an age-old instrument, played contemplatively and intimately, has won him many fans around the world.

As announced by Drowned In Sound, he finally returns on October 10th 2011 with the successor to his highly acclaimed solo piano works Wintermusik and The Bells. Released on Erased Tapes Records and entitled FELT, the album will coincide with a European tour in November 2011 – a truly memorable and magical live experience.


CONTENT: Having recorded his last album live in a large, reverberant church, Nils Frahm now invites you to put on your headphones and dive into a world of microscopic and delicate sounds – so intimate that you could be sitting beside him.

Recorded late at night in the reflective solitude and silence of his studio in Berlin, Frahm uncovers a new sound and source of inspiration within these peaceful moments:

'Originally I wanted to do my neighbours a favour by damping the sound of my piano. If I want to play piano during the quiet of the night, the only respectful way is by layering thick felt in front of the strings and using very gentle fingers. It was then that I discovered that my piano sounds beautiful with the damper.’

Captivated by this sonic exposition, he placed the microphones so deep inside the piano that they were almost touching the strings. This brought a host of external sounds to the recordings which most producers would try their hardest to hide:

‘I hear myself breathing and panting, the scraping sound of the piano's action and the creaking of my wooden floorboards – all equally as loud as the music. The music becomes a contingency, a chance, an accident within all this rustling. My heart opens and I wonder what exactly it is that makes me feel so happy.’

FELT creates its own personal microcosm, offering a refuge of tender and honest beauty.

'The Bells is a record of astonishing beauty' (8/10) – Drowned In Sound  

'Nils Frahm is poised to become something of a sensation' – The Economist's Intelligent Life  

 ‘Emotionally charged piano music which always errs toward the melodic side of melancholy' **** – Mojo  

 ‘If there’s any justice The Bells, along with his recently released Wintermusik set, will expose Frahm to a wider audience, a demographic with a seemingly insatiable appetite for more prime neo-classicism’ – BBC Music

Releasing album ‘Bring Out The Sound’ in early 2018, Britain’s original live hip hop band The Herbaliser have been touring across Europe non-stop since, finding fans wherever they’ve touched down. Now BBE Music revisits the project with three brand new remixes from Mr Bird and The Gaff.
Since issuing his BBE debut ‘Low-Fi Classics’ alongside hugely respected UK vocalist Greg Blackman, Lisbon based producer Mr Bird has been going from strength to strength, finding his music consistently championed by the BBC’s Craig Charles among many others. Remixing Bring Out The Sound’s fiery opening track Breach, Mr Bird injects a little bounce into the groove and adds atmospherics, not to mention a monstrous synth bass-line, sure to move bass-bins (and backsides) across the globe. For his version of ‘Over And Over’, Mr Bird employs a much more sensitive touch, giving Stac’s beautiful vocal deliver room to breathe over shuffling drums and subtle synths. Finally, renowned Party Rocker, Producer, Record Collector and ‘DJ’s DJ’, The Gaff takes on modern b-boy anthem ‘Takedown’, turning the drums up to eleven as he expertly teases out even more funk from the Herbaliser band’s original performance.
