Unassuming yet deeply present. You can hear the air move through this music. Notes hover, decay, and return, turning the act of listening into a slow walk through sound and space.
notes from the nave is the debut album by Linden S., Michiel Dondeyne’s alter ego. It’s a musical correspondence from the refuge of an introvert: the ‘nave’, or middle part, of a church in Antwerp, Belgium. It’s there that he established the piano improvisations that formed the basis of the album.
Loose ideas became the blueprint of extended collages, wherein piano, subtle loops and samples conflate with the cello of Clémence Clarysse and the tenor saxophone of Jeroen Vanbever. Along the way, the distinction between play and repeat, proximity and distance, fades away.
Recorded only with a handful of microphones, picking up not only the reverberation of the room, but also the static noise from outside. The record is both a shelter and a tribute.
