“Why does the world need a Piano Day? For many reasons. But mostly, because it doesn’t hurt to celebrate the piano and everything around it: performers, composers, piano builders, tuners, movers and most important, the listener.” – Nils Frahm

‘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
or via iTunes: http://snip.ftpromo.net/loon

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

02 Leaves & Trees - Who Is That Man

"Porcelain"

Written by Katie Hackett
Featuring Hayden Arp
Produced and Mastered by Zachary McCaw
Drums - Kevin Walker



My brain is porcelain.
I'm a contortionist
I want to breathe you in
As your light breathes

Like wine and lilac
Betrothed inside your veins.
Your bones are verdant and fair
I would die without you.

My brain is porcelain.
I'm a contortionist

A fiend of circumstance,
I break at zeal's first glance.
My vice is my own mind
I would die without you.

You dress my loveless spine
and braid my muzzled hair
You rip my heart in two
I would die without you
I would die without you.

My brain is porcelain
My brain is porcelain.

Herodias

Porcelain

~ Lyrics:

When I wake up
I begin my search for you

Although I found you years ago
When I wasn’t searching high, 
Nor was I searching low

Do you wake up?
Do you rise, and wait for me?

It’s you that found me years ago
With those golden eyes,
How could I be so slow?

Do You Rise

Ian Randall Thornton - Do You Rise

If you’re a closed book then why can I still read your pages?
Yeah, I see them in your face when you look at me that way
Not much has changed here
If I could, I’d grab the wrists of time and run right back to the start
Even knowing how it ended, I’d do it all again, dear
Just to hold you in my arms
One last time

Or was it all just a dream
And I’ve finally woken up
I thought I gave you the best of me
Though it never felt enough
I guess some things aren’t meant to be
Darling, I know that now
But I’m hoping that I’m just fast asleep
And when I wake up you’ll be here

Each song, a finger to a hand that’s reaching out
Each line, a tooth in a mouth that’s screaming out
Behind my closed doors
Can you hear me through the walls?
That you once walked through,
Yeah you just walked through

Or was it all just a dream
And I’ve finally woken up
I thought I gave you the best of me
Though it never felt enough
I guess some things aren’t meant to be
Darling, I know that now
But I’m hoping that I’m just fast asleep
And when I wake up you’ll be here
In my arms

In My Arms

Lyrics:

if the sun goes dark someday 
all the stars fall out from space
oh, solace me, my enlightened one
with no stars and with no sun

and if the blue moon didn’t come
wasn’t new, it just wandered on
to some other earth and some other sun 
would you also go love some other one?

take me with you, Maria, please
I'm so full and I need to empty
I set all my glittering cotton alight
on the bitter chance you'll restore my sight

I'd leave my body and my blood behind
on just the faith you're the one to find

Maria

Lyrics: 

HOME

You’ve been brought up 
In an unfamiliar town
And boy you got used to 
Strangers and their frown
They brought you up
By holding you down
By holding you down

It felt so rough
To stand on your own
With no scope for
Somebody to moan
It’s been so rough 
To have a room but no home
A room but no home

But you grew up and you swore
To add chapters of ease
May they cover your core
Like the rings of old trees

I will hold yours
And you will hold mine
I’m gonna hold yours
And you're gonna hold mine

When I first heard Re, it put a huge smile on my face. I was fascinated by the delicate honesty in the recording. Sometimes one great idea can trigger many streams of thought - this was such a derivative, and I've worked to preserve the fragility of the original, while letting the electric guitar have a nice conversation with Nils's piano. Hope you enjoy it, and have as much fun as I had working on it - Sridhar

Lyrics:

We, we are empty
We are empty

It's the same design
should've been 'cause of a reason
He spent his time
to search and find a solution

How could it be?
How could it be?

He stood aside
never got into the meaning
He gave his life
but never tried in believing

How could it be?
How could it be?
We, we are empty
We are empty
