Felt

Nils Frahm

A microscopic study of a felt-dampened piano. Every mechanical click and breath is captured, creating a sound so intimate it feels like a secret shared in the dark.

October 7, 2011 · Erased Tapes Records

A fragile, hyper-intimate quietude that feels like a protective shield against the world.

Moments Worth Listening For
The rhythmic, percussive thud of the piano pedals acting as a heartbeat on track 1.
The way the mechanical noise of the instrument becomes as melodic as the notes themselves during the middle of Less.
The sprawling, nine-minute closing arc of More where the silence between notes feels heavy and intentional.
