    Recorded in two separate churches, an empty theater, a coffee roastery, two studio’s and a living room, ‘LOGICA’ has a symphonic, orchestral sound with influences of Mike Oldfield, early King Crimson and Steve Reich.

    Christiaan states: "I wanted to achieve the organic sound of a big ensemble playing live, with narrations and layered vocals on top. The result is an immersive concept album about the deep links between mathematics, logic, language, perception, art and physics.”

    Although I think they might be near their natural end (musically), this is really great stuff!
