Nils Frahm – Encores 2 //Erased Tapes// (Released 25th January)

Description

£13.99 – 12″ Vinyl EP

Following the release of Encores 1 in June, Nils Frahm releases Encores 2, the second in a series of EPs accompanying the release of his universally acclaimed album, All Melody (2018). While Encores 1 focused on an acoustic pallet of sounds with just a solo piano and harmonium, Encores 2 explores a more ambient landscape from the All Melody sessions, the pinnacle of which is the astral 12 minute showpiece ‘Spells’. Recorded through an amplified stone well Frahm found on Mallorca, Encores 2 is at once unique but familiar; orbiting the universe of All Melody while inhabiting its own world.

“The idea behind Encores is one we had from before All Melody; to separate releases each with their own distinct musical style and theme, perhaps even as a triple album. But All Melody became larger than itself and took over any initial concepts. I think the idea of Encores is like musical islands that compliment All Melody”.
