about

The idea for this music started with textural, electronic meditations, where time becomes a blur and there is no need for pushing things to happen. You can zoom in or zoom out of the music at any time. This also relates to my fascination or need for longer (or shorter) periods of concentration. In reality one loses focus because of life happening and I feel this record can be enjoyed in the background as well as in a concentrated listening session.

The first synthesizer recordings were done in my home between september-november 2021. This daily work generated a lot of material and a lot of editing was necessary. I did a piano overdub session in which I reacted to the electronic pieces spontaneously in Peter Desmedt’s Studio Ledeberg. Everything was carefully mixed by Dries Geusens and mastered by Frederic Alstadt for vinyl and digital. Maxime Melis made a beautiful textural painting of a zoomed in Vanitas Stilleven for the cover and finally Louis Garrido did the layout. THANK YOU!
