Nils Frahm (born 20 September 1982) is a German musician, composer and record producer based in Berlin. He is known for combining classical and electronic music and for an unconventional approach to the piano in which he mixes a grand piano, upright piano, Roland Juno-60, Rhodes piano, drum machines, and Moog Taurus.
Nils Frahm is just some guy on a stage fiddling with knobs, tinkering with futuristic glass harmonicas, and clanging away at keys with a penchant for building waves of contemplative sounds. So you can soundtrack whatever stressful thoughts you may have brought with you on a Thursday night.
Chill-out? Ambient? Neo-classical? A decade in to Nils Frahm's professional career, the 37-year-old Berliner's music was as defiant of genre as ever, so best to just surrender to those enveloping chords and warm beats.
These days, Frahm can fill our biggest concert halls (several times over) in each city he visits. But if we were a little late coming to the Frahm party, weve made up for it, inviting him back to Melbourne twice within the past 14 months.
Kicking off a beautifully sunny August bank holiday weekend, German composer Nils Frahm returned to London to perform at The Hydra’s bank holiday series at Printworks. We went to see the magician at work on August 23rd.
