NILS FRAHM & ÓLAFUR ARNALDS – Loon | Vinyl
Containing five synthesiser-led pieces, Loon was recorded in autumn 2014 across five days at Nils‘s Durton Studio in Berlin, and continues on from the ambient sounds of Stare but with the addition of more percussive elements and dub influences. For this new EP the duo wired an Oberheim 4 Voice and a Korg PS3100 to the mixing desk and performed live takes on both instruments. With all four hands on its pots, all mixes were recorded straight onto 2-track ½-inch tape.
