 Nils Frahm
Nils Frahm had an early introduction to music. During his childhood he was taught to play piano. It was through this that Nils began to immerse himself in the styles of the classical pianists before him as well as contemporary composers. Today Nils Frahm works as an accomplished composer and producer from his Berlin-based Durton Studio. His unconventional approach to an age-old instrument, played contemplatively and intimately, has won him many fans around the world. For a musician this early in his career, Frahm displays an incredibly developed sense of control and restraint in his work, catching the ear of many fans.
It was a warm, golden sunny evening in Brighton when we arrived at St Mary's Church to meet with Nils Frahm and the Erased Tapes Records team. There was an incredible buzz around the venue as we rushed in and out with equipment and as the sun started to set, the church began to fill. Nils Frahm played a beautiful concert starting with Said & Done and flowing on to two unique improvisations, both as equally moving as we have come to expect from Nils. Later, Nils joined us backstage to talk to us about himself and his work. Filmed by Waterfront Studios and Galapagos presents. Sound by Waterfront Studios. Music by Nils Frahm
