What is art, what is an artist. Nils Frahm is the answer to all these questions. I watched this man live three times. I'm still excited to see him. This production is a typical concert movie. The incredible camera usage is admirable. We should also thank Brad Pitt for providing us with this work. So he is also a Nils Frahm fan. I was also very happy for this. They had already worked together in Ad-Astra.

I was at two of the shows shown here, and the film captures well how special it felt to be there. Seeing him live is always a pretty ecstatic, illuminating experience, and this made me feel like I was back there, in 2018. Also captures quite well how special and incredible Funkhaus is. Easily my favorite venue in the entire world. Anyway, it's a wonderful film.

Do not enter unless beautifully minimal atmospheric music is your thing. If it is, come in a bathe. Before watching this, I knew the name Nils Frahm, but not really heard any of his music. I will always maintain that witnessing a live performance is the best way to discover new music but although this is only recording of such an event, it's a pretty close second. Nils is in Berlin, at the amazing looking Funkhaus. Recorded across several performances in 2018, what's essentially a concert film features an indulgent array of cameras capturing him playing solo. Surrounded in the round on an intimate stage by synths, sequencers, pianos and probably a ton of stuff I can't accurately identify. These sort of films can be a little hit or miss, but for me this is a hit. The music is sublimely beautiful, the setting looks wonderful and the cut is elegant and simple. There's no fluff, nothing more than there need be. As soon as artists are able to tour again. Go see Nils Frahm. I'll be there.
