The Blue Notebooks was Max Richter's second solo album, a distinctive and adventurous work that is beautifully recorded and cinematic in scope. Opening with a text from Franz Kafka over a sparse piano melody, the album moves through heart-wrenching strings of On The Nature Of Daylight to lyrical piano pieces. Using piano, cello, violin and viola, alongside electronic beats (made using a variety of antique electronics and Reaktor), spoken word passages and the occasional field recording (including a very realistic crow that you probably think comes from your garden); other sounds were generated via old guitar pedals and vocoders.
SPECIAL EDITION (2LP) : 2018 reissue of 2004 "post-classical" LP inspired by Kafka's 'Blue Octavo' Notebooks. Expanded with 6 bonus tracks (some previously unreleased) & updated artwork. For fans of Philip Glass, Sigur Ros & Brian Eno.
