Nils Frahm - Toilet Brushes - More (Live in London) 

He should definitely clean off the toilet brushes he uses Smacked away at many a piano But, also! Your advice is great. Keep those brushes mf CLEANN

@@MotherSmuckers Thanks for your comment, that will also support my hear, when I work part- time as a cleaner for dirty toilet. 👏👍

おお、日本人がいて嬉しい。

I hope one day you become a famous writer and the historians of the future find your yt comment for your bio info

@@reneerisin5719 thank you so much🥰From now on, I will remember you in my hard times.

+QuantomMusic I must agree

i agree 100% but, you might like tony anderson - immanuel :)

Me too

don't forget me too...

New Old Genius : MULL of OA... Seen in a secretly gigs : amazing...

It shivers everytime as it would be the first time

Thats an awesome way to interpret it but to me it doesn't feel like a monster more like a waltz with something supernatural.

talltim10 Man, I’m 100% quoting you every time I need to explain to someone about what kind of musician Nils Frahm is.

Precise

This is the best explanation I have ever heard.

That's exactly what its like! Perfect description.

I was here for this! Best thing I’ve seen live. It was a spectacular performance!

“Shamanic” is a word that seldom applies, but in this case it is SPOT ON.

I saw him around the same time in Dallas TX of all places. It was my favorite concert ever despite the fact that I've been to 100's of different shows.

Woah, that's surely a must-see. I envy you so much. c':

Jack McCarthy That is absolutely true. I heard him first on the radio, got his name, checked him on RU-vid and immediately decided to see him live. Well, it's been 2 live performences already and as you say, it's like being on a date. I literally stopped breathing at the end of More, trying to remember every overwhelming second of it. Yes, SEE HIM LIVE!

I have the privilege to see him live at 17 February ! Can't Wait ...

mrJillesOom where are you gonna see him ?

mrJillesOom In Eindhoven !! Wilde ook naar Nijmegen maar zag toen dat hij ook in Eindhoven komt. Dat is mijn thuis. Dus ik ben helemaal blij !!

No. No he won’t. Nils music is great, but let’s not get carried away. Don’t get me wrong, I guarantee you I’m enjoying this at least as much as you are. I’ve been a fan of Nils for a while now and I’m on about playback #11 in a row on this video, but I’m afraid Mr. Frahm’s music only rises to the level of excellent current film score music. Very much in the vein of say Hans Zimmer, who I love also. I think HZ has a much greater time resistant body of work than NF, but in 100 years next no one will know who Hans Zimmer is, much less Nils. The works and accomplishments of time tested masters such as Bach, Beethoven and Mozart are truly beyond belief and will live on for more hundreds of years.

@@bretthutcheson5710 I disagree. As times change , dynamics change as well as complexities.

@@bretthutcheson5710 Next to nobody will remember e.g. Edward Witten when people will still celebrate Einstein as though he was the be-all-end-all of physics which he very clearly wasn't. Who is remembered has less to do with actual merit than with tradition.

As the biggest NF fan, this is completely insane to think. Bach is still hailed by composers today, 273 years after his death, and his body of work is absolutely inhuman in scale as well as diversity and complexity. None of this can be said for Nils.

@@maximlamoureux4129I completely agree

I get the same feelings watching this video. I can't imagine seeing his whole concert live. I have to, at least once in my life.

I feel ya, brother!

,

Try Steve Reich's Music for 18 Musicians. I saw the piece live not too long ago and it was pure bliss too.

He played this in SF and I was in tears, my coworkers didnt realize how much I cared about Nils and .. well yeah..

lol

Before he begins: Nils: "let me show you how to foreplay it to make it orgasmic" Toddlers: "what?" Nils:" what?"

For me watching this is always like watching it for the first time.

Half of medical school here

This song and album got me through writing my first screenplay. :)

Oh and good choice on law school. I loved law, but I never really pictured myself making a career of it.

aw man! First year law student here. Inspired by your comment.

This song gets me through anxiety

hear hear

I thank assassins creed for putting me onto this guy, still revisit this song 5 years later

Not "Stuck: per say, but yeah.. Chilling

I'm still here

still on social distancing :-/

@@MrCantaui and still looping this video!!!

I love it too, he is incredibly as a pianist and composer! Big inspiration for me. Please take look at my works, if you like such a music :) best regards

Alcheny *AND* Magick ?? The 2 do not make good bedfellows...

You cheeky little bastard! XD

JESUS

He's the MacGyver of the music world.

The Mac Gyver of the music world....hell yeah!!!!

And some toilet brushes. Definitely toilet brushes! New ones ideally.

na man, he needs *wet* sounds (google it). He can't just use new ones q: jk but I am a sound producer lmao

"I've made songs with less"

Grample Gust totally agree that profile picture tho

i think it's leak unless you are referring to the vegetable "leek". I definitely agree with comment

Arielle Aplin-Siegel Thank god for editing.

comes from sommer deep, like the TOILET.

Grample Gust, 100% agree with you!!! 👍👍😎😎😎

Josef Cross Exactly my fav part! I can imagine some chase scene over it.

Josef Cross Brings me out in goosebumps. You're right, incredible. His talent is off the scale, for me.

+Josef Cross Yes, there is a taste of what is to come at 11:30 then at 12:15 we get main course....wonderful stuff.

The thing is, it wouldn't be as good without the 12 minutes of buildup that don't even feel like 12 minutes. Incredible piece this live performance.

Ben Stanbridge Yeah, me too. I just sat there and thought "how's that even possible?". He looks insane, a little bit like a psychopath :D

@Nina K. I know the feeling. His recent album Empty gave me a similar journey. 35 minutes went in an instant, but also left me with feeling I had been away for days. Incredible artist.

fakt toto je koniec ...

ce dernier acte au piano est un des trucs de ouf les plus incroyables que j aie jamais entendu (pourtant avec mouse on the keys que je viens de decouvrir y a de quoi faire), extraordinaire, tous les poils debout, me retrouve comme un con plein d amour et de melancolie a chaque ecoute. merci, ne change rien mec.

:)

i agree the last 4 minutes is the most spectacular, on another level completely. but you should listen to the full thing each time, progressive music like this builds up specifically for this purpose, to trick yourself into making the good parts sound better in comparison.. :P

+Edgar Pifflewiff Yes you're right about that and I do listen to the whole part (Just like now). But it's at the time that I think, 'Ok I'm going to close YT now, Well ok I'll just repeat that last part, it's only a few minutes'. And then I got that situation as I discribed it in my comment.

Thank you, this comparision is very helpful for people that doesn't know about music

Facts bro

I am watching these exact parts nearly every month. Its beyond what i can express in english or in any other language for that matter. No one will ever achieve what Nils is doing currently on a piano. The composing is breathtaking and how to he presents them to the public is... just awesome.

1128 c est l apogée ! J adore aussi. Ce titre au concert de Montreux est encore mieux .. je pense

Don’t forget 12:50! All spine-tingling.

Inspired comment Lauren S. That teaser at 11:28 is phenomenal and then when he brings it back in at 12:16 it’s almost too much.

opens up so delicate and warm

Ro Sousa bro exactly

I think it's the echo effect he uses, the echoed notes play along the new notes he's playing to form totally different melodies every time, it's beautiful.

I love it too, Nils is a great musician! Please take look at my works, if you like such a music :) best regards

It does

I'd say "Ascends into madness" - No??

@@leeMartin33 Trancends into madness*

i actually think its not a style you can study 🤷‍♀

He accomplishes this with the assistance of looping multiple layers with one another that he’s composed.

He is. Big inspiration for me since many years. Please take look at my works, if you like such a music :) best regards

+Charlie Payton i would too

it is now: Tripping with Nils Frahm

I love it too, he is incredibly as a pianist and composer! Big inspiration for me. Please take look at my works, if you like such a music :) best regards

So true…

Brandon Luco This is when I flip out :D

Goosebumps

Why are you looking up Toilet Brushes on RU-vid?

To see people play the piano with one of course!

Well, I could've looked up any of the key words in the title or the description, that including 'live in London' or erasedtapes oor it could've been a yt recommendation. But yeah, you guessed it right, looking up people punching the piano with toilet brushes is my favourite free time activity..

no need to be defensive toilet brushes are cool yo

it's digital delay and loop sequences, not taking nothing away from this guy like, just though would let you know this is how he gets it to sound like 3 pianos, love this guys talent. ;0)

+Tommy Lloyd can you explain in more detail?

The delay effect basically makes one note repeat or echo itself at a softer volume a few times after it was played on the keyboard. An effect pedal or effects processor can achieve this and can be adjusted to fit different timing in a song. So, each note he is playing is being repeated at intervals that coincide with what is being played a few measures ahead. May not be the best explanation, but having used the effect on a lot of things, that's my best explanation. This song is almost more percussion than anything, considering how much the timing plays a role.

Well, Analog piano is percussive(stringed percussive to be precise)

How original! xD

+dracast999 well I am an artiste xD

ahahha

you are correct my friend

@HamburgerFeet thats the greatest comment!

Very cool association with Van Gogh's paintings!

The whole track is a 4 bar tape echo?

4 years later, MORE MUSCLE GAINS STAT BROTHERRR

@@tiko4621 😂😂

i really like the flower analogy

agree! Please take look at my works, if you like such a music :)

I love it too, he is incredibly as a pianist and composer! Big inspiration for me. Please take look at my works, if you like such a music :) best regards

It might because its not the part of the song in the Assassin's Creed Unity trailer and he does a whole different part

See him live, and you will *really* be blown away. It's next level in person.

Andy Moore I hope to one day, would be amazing.

Yer 'Funreal ?' ..or perhaps ur FUNERAL ???

I love it too, he is incredibly creative! Please take look at my works, if you like such a music :) best regards
