"When Laurent asked me if I hadn't a recording lying around that hadn't made it to an album which could be released on hinah, I had to think for a very long moment. Most of the music I have lying around that hasn't made it to an album, has its good reasons. But I did have hours of solo recordings stored in my computer which, as a kind of ritual, I record 10 consecutive nights before playing a solo concert.

'Nacht Slakje' contains mainly improvisations recorded in January 2021 during full lock down. They are snippets out of sessions that were initially meant to serve only as a preparation, and were never intended to be released. Listening back, I realised that the music in the beginning of that preparative process has a distinctive quality to it, one very different from the energy of recorded concerts or from when I try to play within a time-limited set. As if the lack of destination actually gives the music extra time to breathe and allows it to take its time to fully expand.

I chose these tracks for their meditative moods and their sense of slowness which represents very well how I think and process things in life.

Thanks to hinah for the initiative!"
