Bleep

Olafur Arnalds and Nils Frahm have been the runaway successes of Erased Tapes 21C modern classical takeover. Trance Frendz brings the pair together for a fascinating collaboration. Having been available exclusively as the second disc to 2015’s ‘Collaborative Works’, Ólafur Arnalds and Nils Frahm's improvised audio recordings, ‘Trance Frendz’, taken from their 45-minute studio film of the same name, have been given their own vinyl release. There ain’t much Trance in the Tiestö sense here; rather long-form ambient improv, drifting electronics, spatial modular composition.
