German neo-classical composer and multi-instrumentalist, Nils Frahm is a spectacle best consumed live, or at very least with the accompaniment of some pretty flash headphones.
Luckily, the kind folks at the Netherlands’ Incubate festival were on hand to record a 23 minute stretch from his set at this year’s event. Enriching minimalist masterpieces of slowly mutating piano and penetrating bass, it’s the next best thing to catching the impresario in the flesh.
Stream below:
Incubate festival runs in 2013 from 16-22 September.
