In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. One of my first musical memories is hearing my father play piano, and trying to imitate him while still being so small that I could hardly reach the keys! What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Nils Frahm, All Melody Sigur Rós, Takk... Yiruma, Best of Yiruma Nils Frahms music always touches me with his beautiful sounds and minimalism. Sigur Ros has been a big influence in the way I approach sound, production and music, and Yiruma influenced me a lot piano- and composition wise. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Antwerp” This is a song I wrote for my girlfriend, in the start of our relationship. It reminds me of our first dates, and wandering through the city streets on warm summer evenings, and will always stay special to me for that reason.
