FLUORESCENCE

in 2014 the Flaming Lips asked me to participate in their Beatles cover album "With aLittle Help from my Fwends". I covered the title track and sent them the file, they in turn dug into it and made a new weird mutant adding and subtracting parts. Here is my initial version in it's self recorded unmastered glory.

WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS

CONTEXT

Words by Nils Frahm: 
‘I heard ‘Eulogy For Evolution’ for the first time 6 years ago and I was totally captivated. Impossible to know back then that I was supposed to meet Ólafur many years later as my label mate. Later when he took me along a tour of his we also noted that we kind of like hanging out together, doing important things like cover versions of long forgotten songs or eating veggie pizza. Also he would join my live set for a jam and I would return the favour by playing along with his set. 

All in all, I fell for Óli and after one memorable jam session we had in Berlin at Roter Salon in 2011, he finally proposed the idea to visit me in my studio in Berlin to work on 'some music'. I was happy and delighted about that idea, so we got together in April 2011 and after having a big pizza, I plugged in some old analogue synths and we played for four days until late in the night. Also queen Anne Müller stopped by after a show with Agnes Obel to record some cello at 5 am in the morning for ‘b1’. Making music together with people is lovely! 
 
The time I spent with Óli in Berlin made me very happy and the music wasn't like anything I have heard before. It was all very reduced and minimal and I felt like I couldn't have done this alone. So we decided to do another 4-day jam at Óli´s E7 studio in Reykjavik. So I flew there in the end of October to repeat the trick and record some out of this world ambient music. It didn't take us too long to write ‘a1’ and ‘a2’.  I can’t wait for the follow up!’

Words by Olafur Arnalds:
 ‘After having toured together and having had many inspiring late night conversations, I decided to visit Nils in his Durton Studio in Berlin for a weekend. We didn't have anything specific in mind, we just wanted to hang out, jam and eat some falafel. That's what we did, but somehow we also made 25 minutes of ambient bliss that weekend. 

After that we quickly decided we had to do the same in my studio in Iceland. Just hang out for a weekend and possibly make some music. So the album became kind of an Iceland vs. Berlin thing. I think you can hear it very well in the sound (side a vs. side b) and that is the most interesting thing about this record for me: that subtle but significant different in the characteristics of the music two people made in Iceland against what the same two people made in Germany. 

I'm not sure why we decided to keep it secret, it just happened. But it sure was fun! I remember a party at Robert's (Erased Tapes founder) flat in Berlin, where me and Nils stood in the corner the whole night whispering about the project. We then delivered the fully mastered record with finished artwork to Robert around the 5th anniversary of the label. It would have been nice to be there to see his face…"

The live video of Nils and Ólafur’s spontaneous improv live set in Berlin last summer won them many fans since, including UK electronic music producer Max Cooper who is now remixing two of his “absolute favourite artists”. Nils and Ólafur will be touring together throughout Europe this spring.

Ólafur Arnalds & Nils Frahm - a2

Peter Zummo (1948) is a trombonist who has explored ensemble music at the border between classical chamber music and free-jazz. 

His first album, Zummo With An X (1981), was recorded in a trio with Arthur Russell on cello and Bill Ruyle on tabla, highlighted by two lengthy minimalist suites Instruments (for duo, trio and quartet) and Lateral Pass.

This is an 8 minute extract of the newly remastered Song IV which usually weighs in at just over 20 minutes.

This reissue will be available on vinyl (180gm) for the first time since 1985 in June 2012.

Peter Zummo - Song IV (Extract)

hyperreal
images are
all that i can feel
follow down
you’re all around
but i hear no sound 
a 404, a cloud
it turns me inside out
myself i am without

make your move
stagnate in youth
running without you
there’s no truth
separate but same
this is its domain
wrapped up in its chain
of all that can remain
this is what i became

all networks are edges

Fractal Dismembered

Reach back in time and revisit the dreamy sounds of the 1980s with the JUNO-106 Synth-Pop patch collection by Espen Kraft. These 32 patches for Roland Cloud’s ACB recreation of the JUNO-106 pay homage to the transformative and cerebral beauty of early synthesizer-driven pop music.
