Spaces (Nils Frahm album)

Spaces is the seventh studio album by German musician Nils Frahm.

It has been described by Frahm as a "collage of field recordings",[1] and a sound collage of found sounds,[2] and includes music recorded over a 2-year period at different locations using a variety of methods including cassette and reel to reel tapes.

[5] In his review for Pitchfork, Nick Neyland called it "an absorbing work, full of pensive moments cut together by music that thrives on dovetailing melodies that can be simultaneously mesmerizing and beautiful".

[16] Spaces was given an honorable mention in Pitchfork's Albums of the Year 2014, with Nick Neyland remarking, "There are magical properties here, giving Spaces a quality that makes it easy to forget the world outside during its absorbing duration".

[17] "Says" was ranked at number 47 on Pitchfork's list of The 100 Best Tracks of 2014, with critic Andrew Rice writing that the track comes closest to capturing "the experience of seeing a Frahm concert".
