F.S. Blumm & Nils Frahm - 2X1=4 (2021) [Hi-Res]

Fourth collaborative album from F.S.Blumm and Nils Frahm. The seven-track album finds the duo unexpectedly exploring a dub-influenced universe, though in truth it's one already familiar to both. F.S.Blumm, for instance, is co-founder of Quasi Dub Development, whose 2014 album, 'Little-Twister vs Stiff-Neck', featured Lady Ann and Lee Scratch Perry, while Frahm's music - not least 2018's 'All Melody' - has occasionally betrayed a fondness for the form's associated studio techniques, though he concedes wryly that his approach has always been 'a little bit more German' than his influences.
