Nils Frahm releases new single "Lemon Day"

After announcing Music For Animals with the lead single "Right Right Right" last month, Frahm has delivered a second outing from the album titled "Lemon Day".

Music For Animals will be Frahm's first record of all-new material since 2019's All Encores and 2018's All Melody, and was recorded over the past two years at his studio in Berlin's Funkhaus complex.

Frahm said of the upcoming album, "My constant inspiration was something as mesmerising as watching a great waterfall or the leaves on a tree in a storm. It’s good we have symphonies and music where there’s a development, but a waterfall doesn’t need an Act 1, 2, 3, then an outcome, and nor do the leaves on a tree in a storm. Some people like watching the leaves rustle and the branches move. This record is for them."

"A lot of music, in my humble opinion, is over-decorated like a Christmas tree," Frahm continued. "I just want to have the tree. I don’t know why there’s more decoration on the tree each year, nor why a song has to be a little more compact, denser and more digested. This, to me, feels more and more unnatural. I’d prefer to give an idea of what could be there but isn’t there so that the listener starts creating the composition in their mind. For me that’s a core element of my music: that you, the listener, find yourself inside the music. On this album there’s an especially big place left where it’s not too tight or squeezed."
