Wonderful German pianist Nils Frahm has declared March 29th, the 88th day of the year, world "Piano Day" so, in honour of this celebration, here's a sneak preview of a track from Merganzer's upcoming full-length record that makes use of this tender and timeless instrument. 
Merganzer is the new experimental pop project of Violinist Mika Posen (Timber Timbre, Agnes Obel). Most of her music is built around strings and keyboards, but "Ganz Großes Kino" was written and recorded on an old acoustic upright piano late one night in Berlin during the early winter of 2014. String sounds and tape delay were added later on back in Canada.

3. ef - I Never Felt This Way Before

In It is a one-man Post-Rock/Metal project from Yunnan, China started in 2008. With influences from Shoegaze to Post-Metal, debut full-length "None Of That Matters" features both elegant melody and raw distortiom at the same time. Five sincere instrumental tracks filled with nostalgic sentiments may remind you of works from bands such as Agalloch, Alcest, EF or This Will Destroy You.

Hailing from Los Angeles, California, Whale Fall is an instrumental group featuring traditional rock instrumentation interfused with more pastoral strokes of piano, brass instruments, cello, and a touch of analog synth. 

The group's self-titled debut record was written across several years and line-up changes. Released in 2011, the first album eventually became a favorite of music directors at NPR, who featured many of the tracks as interstitial music on the nationally syndicated "Morning Edition" program. The independently produced, self-released record was an expansive and wide-ranging double LP which established the band's sound as well as their dedicated fanbase. Tracks from the record, as well as a newer exclusive track, were featured in the award-winning 2013 documentary Code Black.

Their second release, The Madrean (an extended homage to the American Southwest which the band calls home) was heralded as a more developed, cohesive, and dynamic set of thematically related compositions with profound emotional resonance. The Madrean landed on several year-end "Best of 2014" lists and further solidified the band's reputation as well as its small but ardent cult following. The double LP vinyl edition features a stunning 12-page booklet of manipulated landscape photography which merges with the eight often lengthy, interconnected tracks to evoke the story behind The Madrean.

For their latest self-produced release, Sondersongs, the band honed their focus down to ten tracks clocking in under 45 minutes — their first single LP. Although based in similar musical ground as the first two records, on Sondersongs the band is not afraid to bend the listener's ear more toward further genre references and nods to decades past, with individual tracks shifting seamlessly from plaintive piano pieces and chiming acoustic passages to shimmering dream pop guitar tones, more elaborate horn arrangements, and blaring rock anthems. 

The concept of "sonder" comes from the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, which defines it as: 

"The realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own — populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries and inherited craziness — an epic story that continues invisibly around you like an anthill sprawling deep underground, with elaborate passageways to thousands of other lives that you’ll never know existed, in which you might appear only once, as an extra sipping coffee in the background, as a blur of traffic passing on the highway, as a lighted window at dusk."

Sondersongs will soon be available on all relevant (and irrelevant) streaming services with the digital release slated for June 26, 2018. A striking (and limited) white vinyl edition and compact disc release will follow later in the year.
