Nils Frahm - Music for the Motion Picture Victoria (Bonus Track Version) (2015)

Nils Frahm writes his first score for one-take feature film Victoria and is nominated for German film prize Nils Frahm has always said that he's just waiting for something real special when being asked if he would ever score the music for a film. And that's exactly what German director Sebastian Schipper presented to him with his one-take feature Victoria . Filmed in Berlin, Victoria's plot sees a runaway party girl, who's asked by three friendly men to join them as they hit the town, but their wild night of partying suddenly turns into a bank robbery as the music changes from techno to subdued piano sounds. For the recording session at Studio P4 in Berlin, Frahm enlisted the help of long-time collaborator and cellist Anne Müller, violist Viktor Orri Árnason and ambient artist Erik K. Skodvin of Deaf Center on guitar.

Frahm's soothing electro-orchestral pieces prove especially effective, washing over the throbbing dance beats like a flood of endorphins. –Hollywood Reporter

Nils Frahm's score is an equally flexible asset, veering from juddering electronic chaos to dreamy intrusions of piano and cello a sonic approximation of the alternating noise in the title character's wrecked head. –Variety
