F.S.Blumm and Nils Frahm release their fourth collaborative album, 2X1=4 on Leiter, the new label formed by Frahm and his manager, Felix Grimm. The seven-track album finds the duo unexpectedly exploring a dub influenced universe, though in truth its 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 Frahms music not least 2018s All Melody has occasionally betrayed a fondness for the forms associated studio techniques, though he concedes wryly that his approach has always been a little bit more German than his influences.
