On the 28th of July 2015 Ólafur Arnalds and Nils Frahm met up at Nils's Durton Studio in Berlin, and invited Alexander Schneider and his camera to document it. But instead of ending the session after the first take we continued to improvise throughout the night, ending up with several new pieces written and recorded in 8 hours with no overdubs and no edits.

Some of my friends use to say that i am only listening to sad music.
But when I‘m listening to these guys I don‘t feel sad, not at all. I feel so much more. I feel comfort, I feel warmth
I feel at home.
When I close my eyes I don‘t think, I just sit there and listen to this music and know that everything is gonna be fine.
It makes me sad that my friends don’t understand this music and its incredible beauty. I hope everyone who read this enjoy it as much as i do
Thank you Olafur and Nils
This resonates with me so much, well put into words!
so you got good old Viking soul resting in you after all that hard war times ☺️
Exactly!
This music is anything but sad. It's powerful, engrossing, emotional, evocative and invigorating. These two musicians use harmonics the way a painter uses pigments. More than anything else I find their music to be simple, highly-saturated beauty.
You are understood, my friend
When I found out that Olafur & Nils (whom I discovered and listened to extensively separately) were friends and jammed out together, I felt genuine hope for humanity.
Tan bello es Escucharlos Es Como un juego de Melodías .Imágenes .Movimientos Emociones .Me Encantan .Cajita de Musica en sus Manos ❤️❤️🎆🎇🌺🌺😘😘🥂🥂🌬️🌬️🌌
I have listened to this every single night before bed for almost 3 years.
do u have a perfect pitch by now ?
Fine taste. Just the perfect stretch within the day... Triple A. Stay safe!
Impressive!!!
Yeah, definitely one of my go tos when I sit down to draw
Have you seen Nils or Olafur live ??
My daughter was born to 20:17. Thank you for beautiful music to go with beautiful memories
"I'll keep it more minimal this time..."
"Yeah, I'll stick to like 3 notes too..." - the genius of these guys. Thanks for this film!
transports me to a place without pain and suffering.
UGH. Their friendship as musicians, I would watch their vlogs Everday!
Close your eyes to see better.
+Caleb Rankin 😌
good piece of advice
Close your eyes to see what's worth.
I dig it!
i agree. because the camera work is horrible.
Beautiful! 😊
+Anjunadeep salute to anjuna team for knowing brilliant music
@anjunadeep...fantastic that Olafur and Nils have your attention
I love you guys, thanks for all the beautiful music
this apartment is fucking heaven or what? a four voice and ps3100 (and all the other insanely cool shit)? wow. not to mention two of my favourite contemporary composers under one roof co-creating. this is certainly heaven, without a doubt. keep it up guys- you deserve all the toys and money and then some.
Well this is easily the greatest video I've ever seen in my life.
+thankyoumisterspell Then you should watch Olafur Arnald's Living Room Songs too .... also a-fucking-mazing
thankyoumisterspell you are amazing also
This reminds me of simple times in my youth before i became restless irritable and discontent. When i used to be able to listen to ambient music in the summer in Hulme in Manchester listening to Harold Budd with the windows open. I'd love to feel like that again. This gave me some nostalgia for those times in the late 80s early 90s. Thank you
Exactly
I used to have friends who lived that way in the late 80s too. Yeah, this bought back memories too for me - one of them could play Piano too, although not as good as these guys (:
I never left a comment on this video in the last couple years because every time I listen I'm speechless. Now I guess I can at least say that much.
I cannot believe this has been released almost 7 years ago, still creating the same emotions as when I have listened it for the first time, with 23:52 still giving me goosebumps. I would love to hear the set live, in some cosy place, where you just enjoy your presence and forget of all the other things. Thanks for this!
Such a privilege to see these two modern-day Da Vincis of music letting their creative magic loose. Fantastic!
Hmmmm
Acceptable...
When Im listening to this song, there are moments that I stop breathing. It feels like everything disappears, all bad moments,all bad thoughts.
Thanks for this master piece❤
Have you ever seen/heard an instrument played so perfectly, you can't breathe for a little while? That's what this is for me.
Stunning. Love their collaborative harmony. And all the comments here remind me that there are folks in this world who can hear and appreciate subtlety and beauty. 🌅
This track they did together was superb, almost has a strong Bavarian feel to it!
This is one of the most beautiful music albums in human history. Music that speaks to your heart, so you can clear your head and find the peace within
The first two tracks (20:17 & 21:05) and 03:06 are an arc of thought, reflection and memory for the grieving.
Magnificent Opus.
When you watch and hear this you know there is a higher power in the universe, beautiful.
Two in this case ;)
Sit, relax, let go of whatever it is...close your eyes and just float with this, wherever it may guide you.
i often feel likeif someone asks me what kind of music i hear, i don't answer with Nils Frahm or Ólafur Arnalds just because its more that just that. This should not be compared with some pop, rock or dance music. I think if someone would ask me about art, i would tell them about this. Its nothing to sing or dance along. It's something to reflect and fly away from everything. It's the experience of music that counts right here. Thank you for this
My Great Aunt just passed away yesterday. Hearing the piano theme with a light, harmonic texture underneath was something that I needed to allow my mind to go into some deep thoughts. Truly musical in what you have here.
❤️💭
After all those years, this keps bringin me back here, honestly the album is perfect, but the track 20:17 is one the most beautiful things that i had ever listened. Thanks Olly and Nils, i wouldnt be here without your songs. Sending Love from Brazil.
03:16 is so beautiful, it broke me from the inside out! I could feel all the love in my life, all the beautiful folks and all the lost loves
24:10 - goosebumps!
I thought about making a tracklist here in the comments. But as a matter of fact, you should listen to this in one piece. It is worth taking the time, I really enjoyed it.
Eine wundervolle Art...Schon lange nicht mehr so berührende Musik gehört,wie diese.
The 6 people who have disliked this video seriously need to review their life situation pronto!
If you have a problem with people that don´t share your opinion, maybe you should review your mental health. This is music, some won´t like every kind of music you like. These guys are not bad but this emotional overacting doesn´t look real to me. So yes - I don´t like it too much. But I would not click dislike here, but others will and thats okay.
Edit: I really like Olafur Arnalds but I cannot look at Nils Frahm without starting to laugh.
You got it. When I was a student at University, there was a group of people who insisted that it had to be the Rolling Stones, otherwise it wasn't worth listening to. It was that making of me as a musician. Far, far, away frm college campus life. I'm afraid.
alles was der nils anfasst wird zum gold. dieser junge ist einfach ein wahrer Meister. sein album the gamble mit nonkeen ist ein ABSOLUTES MEISTERWERK!!!!!,- und das beste was ich in den letzten Jahren gehört habe. trotz seines momentanen erfolges, finde ich, dass er noch viel zu unterschätzt ist. das ist halt so, weil die meisten Leute seine Musik nicht verstehen!!!ich wünsche ihm alles beste für seinen weitern weg. much love from Munich/germany
Mark my words: these men are the greatest of our time
15:20 this song made me cry. the high pich tone made me feel really alone. The piano gave me a confused and distorted feeling, a nervous tension was building. Followed by the low horn that made feel like some forgotten memory just squeezed out the aggony that was long subdued.
ist das schön, ich liebe diese Musik.
It’s almost too much to be with. Their music stirs me at my core. In a good way. It moves me to deep profound grateful tears. Thank you thank you thank you 💛
this is the most beautiful thing i have ever seen.
One of my favorite vinyls 🙌🎵
"That was good"
"Yeah"
O_O
Definitely these songs have helped me to be at peace with myself, in moments of depression and anxiety, also to reflect on the course of my life. It is magical how each note conveys a unique feeling.
The descending line at 11:25 will never cease to make me happy
I can't stop dreaming of those piano sheets. it's impossible to describe, what does this music mean to me. you guys are just amazing
for at least 4 years i have listened to this piece of music (20:17) on a fairly regular basis and it still brings me joy every time I hear it. Thank you Olafur and Nils :)
20:17 makes me cry, because my mom die and i feel like she still here...
The music feels like a real experience, not an experience that actually happened, but definitely something thats actually possible and you are feeling it through the music, and it's a beautiful experience, whatever is at the center of this lovely experience is something that's too pure to exist in the world as we know it and experience it, but if somehow it's possible to feel this type of love, it'd be a shame if we didn't pursue it all together.
My heart aches with love for the music you create in this. My dream life in one video. Love you guys, never stop.
How could anyone dislike this!?
Eating pizza with a friend and make epic songs, seems a nice way to spend the evening 🍕 ❤️
I loved every second of this!!!

I have loved some of these pieces for a long time. I didn't realize you improvised them in one evening. What a magical evening.
What you do with the Korg in 00:26 is so wonderfully warm and deep. Can a synthesizer sound more beautiful than in this piece?
Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
Absolutely brilliant. sensitivity in its pure state
I’m in love. Thank you!❤❤❤
