Nice to Meet You EP

Released in 2013, the Nice to Meet You EP represents a fascinating, perhaps confusing, pivot or namesake departure from the 1970s German progressive rock band Frame. While the historical Frame was known for the heavy Hammond organ work of 'Frame of Mind' (1972), this 2013 release fully embraces the aesthetics of modern Downtempo and Ambient Techno. The EP consists of four long-form tracks that prioritize texture and atmosphere over traditional rock structures. Recorded with a focus on digital clarity and lush reverb, the production is a far cry from the analog grit of the Dieter Dierks era. Critical reception for this specific release is sparse, existing largely in the niche corners of digital-only electronic music platforms. It stands as a curious artifact: either a radical reinvention of a legacy name or a distinct project operating under the same moniker, successfully capturing the 'Krautrock' spirit of exploration through entirely different, electronic means.
