After releasing his critically acclaimed album Spaces in late 2013, and a completely sold out North American Tour in spring, Nils Frahm will return for the autumn run of his Spaces Tour with a special gift to his fans: an exclusive stream of album track 'Said And Done'.

'Touring the US again? I hope my folks at home wont get jelous but it is just starting to become some serious fun! Expect me to return with more crazy ideas about how to wreck an old New York Steinway and more tips: how to manage travelling UNITED AIRLINES. There will be more half broken tape delays, overclocked synths and hopefully I can score another silly drum computer. I am very much looking forward! Plus, if you want me back, I am coming. See you soon!' – Nils Frahm

His feverish playing is so stimulating that it's slightly nerve-wracking' – Pitchfork

'If you've ever caught Nils Frahm live, you can attest to what a powerful experience it can be' – Exclaim!

'It’s a powerfully moving experience watching him create all manner of sounds with his fingertips' – KEXP

'He had the audience laughing, at the point of tears and ultimately on their feet with a standing ovation' – Resident Advisor

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.

Press reactions to his last album THE BELLS:

'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
