Nils Frahm & Anne Müller - The Intention @ UM:LAUT - Live Snippet 1

Solo Piano - Chris Bright

this evening's light  - 4:23:24, 6.38 PM

‘Loon’ will be released on Erased Tapes as a 12” vinyl as well as digitally on October 2nd. 
Pre-order it here: www.erasedtapes.com/store/index/ERATP072

Containing five synthesiser-led pieces, ‘Loon’ was recorded in autumn 2014 across five days at Nils’s Durton Studio in Berlin, and continues on from the ambient sounds of ‘Stare’ but with the addition of more percussive elements and dub influences. For this new EP the duo wired an Oberheim 4 Voice and a Korg PS3100 to the mixing desk and performed live takes on both instruments. With all four hands on its pots, all mixes were recorded straight onto 2-track ½-inch tape.

Like on ‘Stare’, their first collaborative affair in 2012, they simply followed what was laying in front of them, and this time they were driven by some new synths, a kick drum and tape effects. Indulging in dub, the tracks where all performed rather than engineered, with Ólafur riding a few elements on faders and Nils bringing effects in and out. After running several mixes, they went for the five strongest moments from this session. The release was announced on a joint website www.arnaldsfrahm.com together with the launch of an intimate 45-minute studio film titled ‘Trance Frendz’, featuring another seven improvisations.

“Nils got some new synths and we thought we’d try them out. We loved them so much that we didn’t actually end up using anything else to make these songs.” – Ólafur Arnalds

“When I was young I was smuggled to Goa parties by my brother. The music played there in the late nineties had a somewhat deep effect on me. ‘Loon’ is almost a blurry memory of these times. In other words, it is what I’d like to remember that music sounded like back then. In fact it sounded probably really cheesy.” – Nils Frahm

Digits

My father died on 16 March 2011.  His body had battled emphysema for years.  After complications caused by a bout of pneumonia he finally succumbed.  In the aftermath of these events I turned to my piano for solace and escape.  The resulting record attempts to address the emotions experienced during the 7 days between his death and funeral.  In collaboration with Ed Hamilton, who brilliantly tapped in to my experience and emotion, and with contributions from Christoph Berg, this record is about, and in memory of, my father. - Euan

From the album: Panoptique Electrical - Disappearing Music For Face

Physical copies and digital downloads available here:
https://soundinsilencerecords.bandcamp.com

Sound In Silence is happy to announce the return of Jason Sweeney and his Panoptique Electrical project, presenting his new album Disappearing Music For Face.

This is his second release on the label after last year’s, already sold out, debut album of Great Panoptique Winter, his collaboration project with Richard Adams of Hood and The Declining Winter.

Panoptique Electrical is both an experimental studio project by Jason Sweeney, based in Adelaide, Australia, and instrumentalist collaboration with electronic and classical musicians Zoë Barry, Jed Palmer, Tristan Louth-Robins, Cailan Burns, Noah Symons and Richard Adams and visual artist Steve Phillips.
While in the last decade Jason Sweeney has made Panoptique Electrical his central focus, for about twenty years he has been composing and recording either solo, under the alias of Other People’s Children and Simpático, or with friends in various musical projects like Pretty Boy Crossover, Sweet William, School of Two, Luxury Gap, Par Avion, Madeline’s Wreath, God Burning System, Great Panoptique Winter and Mist & Sea. For almost a decade he has also been composing sound and music scores for live theatre, dance, film/video and installation projects.

Disappearing Music For Face is another outstanding release from Panoptique Electrical that generates many emotional reactions. It’s a collection of eleven brilliant compositions of gentle piano with small touches of minimalist electronic beats, echoing keys and soft swells of heavily reverbed drones. The beauty of this album will truly captivate the audience of both ambient pioneers like Brian Eno and Harold Budd and artists like A Winged Victory For The Sullen, Labradford and mid period Hood recordings.

This is a limited edition of 200 handmade and hand-numbered collectible copies. It is packaged in a lovely hand-stamped 127mm x 127mm 260 gsm pale brown cardboard envelope with the front cover image printed on a polaroid style photo paper and two inserts with the tracklist and the credits printed on a 190 gsm reddish-brown cardboard. It also comes bundled with a download code coupon and a Sound In Silence card.

Olafur Arnalds and Nils Frahm - Live in Berlin - 2011

Founded by sonic architect and explorer Robert Raths aka ghostworker in 2007, Erased Tapes is a truly independent record label that has disrupted the industry and rejuvenated the musical landscape. The London-based label has consistently nurtured genre-defying artists from all around the world without losing its avant-garde ethos.

2015 saw BBC 6 Music radio presenter Mary Anne Hobbs stage an Erased Tapes evening featuring Nils Frahm and A Winged Victory For The Sullen at the Royal Albert Hall as part of the prestigious BBC Prom. It was the fastest selling ticket of the entire season. Shortly after Erased Tapes was awarded Best Small Label 2015 at the AIM Awards.

On February 5th 2017 Erased Tapes opened the doors to its new East London home, marking the 10th anniversary by introducing fans and the public to the new Erased Tapes Sound Gallery.

“Ten years of one of the most important record labels of the last few years“ — Gilles Peterson

"Over the last decade, Robert Raths’ label Erased Tapes has developed a sonic profile perfectly in step with the growing taste for quiet, meditative works on the cusp of ambient and chamber music" — The Independent

“The heart-string-tugging London label that floats gently between 20th century composition and ambient music” — Rolling Stone
