    Love the passion. For any young musicians out there, take note. Nothing he is doing is technically difficult, you could get to this level of proficiency in a few years. But he is completely absorbed in the music, totally transported and elevated into another dimension, and that depth of spirit comes through even with such a simple composition as this. If you can feel your music under your skin, in your bones and deep within your soul with consistency and devotion until you completely merge with it you will be able to move an audience and you can be a professional musician. Soooo many musicians, probably 99.9% focus on mastery and technique while forgetting to develop their musical soul. You can go your whole life as a musician in this way and never learn to express your truest self. People are impressed but secretly bored by such performances. The book to read is Effortless Mastery by Kenny Warner. Music is supposed to be a spiritual experience. Never forget that.

    This has been living in my head rent free for a while now. It’s taken this long to even attempt to convey what it makes me feel like since it’s almost like nothing else.
    The images this keeps bringing up for me though is a test pilot about to push the limits of his prototype.
    0:07 to 3:37 - Pilot is getting briefed, checking the plane over, reviewing footage "yeah, I saw what happened there", checking fitness.. "OK. deep breath"..
    3:38 to 5:27 - Getting into the plane, doing start up checks, "thats a lot of warning lights and sounds". "OK we're good, just a little bug it seems". getting things up to temperature, lining up on the runway and then giving it the beans to take off..
    5:28 to 7:38 - ..and up we go. Climbing hard, getting ready to push that top speed. Going up, there’s shudders and noises but nothing that hasn’t been there before. "Man, it's so amazing up here. Never gets old".. "Ok, that noise was new. Probably something to check out, so do we turn back?"
    7:39 to 8:56 "No way. We're here now. Pedal to the metal, it’s make or break". The speed just keeps climbing, and climbing. Passing the previous best. Things are getting weird, noises not heard before.. "Just keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Can't go back. Keep going."
    Speed has all about stopped rising at this moment, just ticking up now and again.. "Keep going. Gotta push it. Keep going. Keep going. COME ON YOU BASTARD GIVE ME SOMETHING MORE! Keep going… Gotta.. Keep… Goi.."
    8:57 ….. too far.

    He is amazing. How you can master making something so repetitive not sound boring or losing interest. That's a gift. Minus all the other amazing minor aspects of his talent. Brilliant

    These were the two main keyboards I liked in my schools music dept where we had a little studio and a Juno 60, a rack mount digital delay,, a Roland drum machine and four track tape recorder. I keep seeing these little coincidences when I listen to Frahm stuff. So pissed I missed his tour to Australia! Come again Nils. nothing even remotely this go was ever heard in out studio where some of us took synth lessons and even built our own monophonic Spectrum Synthesisers from a UK mag Electronic Music Maker, but I recognise so many . of the sounds and ideas from these machines and this kind of soundscape (word we used at the time) collage compositions.

But he is without a doubt the “ King of the Swing “ for sure ! Elegance and simplicity go hand in hand. Peace Christo👽🛸☮️🎶🐕
