Nils Frahm (born 20 September 1982) is a German musician, composer, and 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 machine, and Moog Taurus. As well as his solo work, Frahm has released collaborations with such notable performers as Anne Müller, Ólafur Arnalds, and F. S. Blumm. ==Biography== Frahm had an early introduction to music. His father, Klaus Frahm, was a photographer who also designed covers for ECM Records. He grew up near Hamburg, where he learned the styles of the classical pianists as well as contemporary composers. Frahm's earlier solo piano works ''Wintermusik'' (2009) and ''The Bells'' (2009) gained him attention, but it was his 2011 release ''Felt'' that was met with critical acclaim. It was his first studio album on Erased Tapes, which has been releasing his music since. The album was followed by the solo synthesiser EP ''Juno'' and by ''Screws'' (2012), recorded while Frahm was recovering from a thumb injury, and offered as a free download to fans on his birthday. His follow up to ''Juno'', titled ''Juno Reworked'' (2013), featured guest reworks by Luke Abbott and Chris Clark. Frahm's album, ''Spaces'' (2013), was made of live recordings from various venues spanning over two years.〔 In December 2013, Frahm released his first music book, ''Eins'', published by Manners McDade.〔(SHEETS/EINS website )〕 In 2014, Frahm announced his new piano UNA CORDA, specially designed and made for him by David Klavins. The piano weighs under 100 kg and has one string per key, rather than the commonly used three strings. A condensed version of his single "More" was featured in the Assassin's Creed Unity unity gamescom trailer.〔http://www.designntrend.com/articles/18008/20140815/assassins-creed-unity-brand-new-trailer-released-gamescom-2014-video.htm〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nils Frahm」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
