Normally when an audience turns up for a show, they miss out on the hours of preparation which has been completed in advance.
For his next video, Nils Frahm decided to pull back the curtain. Shot across a three hour period, 'Hammers' documents the process of setting up equipment, soundchecking, preparing for the arrival of fans.
Nils Frahm explains: "When you guys come to see my show, then most of the days work is done already. After setting up my instruments I am ready to enjoy the performance as much as the people attending it. The setup takes many hours and while you do it, you must think at one point: 'how would all that fiddling and tweaking look in fast forward?' Well, here is the answer. The artists of feld.is brought the wonderful SPACES artwork to life. This is also a huge THANK YOU to all the wonderful friends and helpers behind the scenes, making this show possible."
Nils Frahm's new album 'Spaces' is out now. Catch Clash x Erased Tapes at the next Independent Label Market in London on November 29th.
