2X1=4 began as a series of improvisations during 2016, with the pair later building on the recordings in Frahm’s studio.

Across the album’s seven tracks, Frahm and Blumm look to their shared love of dub, as well as ’80s drum machines.

2X1=4 follows Frahm’s surprise album Graz, released on Erased Tapes in March.
