Omval was made quickly, within a week, right after a gig (with serpent player Berlinde Deman) that left me really inspired. Back home, I reinstalled my live setup and tried to recreate the atmosphere of said concert. Of course it turned out completely different, but the recordings of these ‘hardware jams’ were very useful nonetheless, and form the main component of the collage that is Omval. I think the result has the organic quality of a performance, with a complexity that I could never achieve in a live set. (Rutger Zuydervelt, May 2024)
