Renowned composer Nils Frahm makes a triumphant return to his own LEITER label with “Day”, the first of two promised records in 2024. In a departure from his recent sonically robust material, “Day” sees Frahm returning to the stark austerity of solo piano music, reminiscent of the style that first brought him acclaim.
Composed entirely of solo piano pieces, “Day” showcases Frahm’s mastery of the instrument, allowing his striking keys and strings work to take center stage. However, this album also marks a fusion of his old and new practices, as seen in tracks like the album centrepiece ‘Butter Notes’. Here, Frahm incorporates room sounds, field recordings, and luscious reverb, creating a hybrid sound that is both nostalgic and innovative.
With “Day”, Nils Frahm invites listeners to immerse themselves in a world of delicate melodies and evocative compositions, reaffirming his status as one of the most innovative voices in contemporary music.
