*100 copies limited edition* 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 the middle part - of a church in Antwerp, Belgium. It’s there, where he established the improvisations on piano that sprouted this 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.

Notes from the nave was 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.
