about

The first sounds are sounds that are streched heavily (using Paul Stretch software). The lyrics describe a personal experience with listening.

lyrics

het was jaren later
ze nodigde haar uit om te luisteren
en daarna bleef ze stil
ze luisterde
haar linker oor groeide en groeide
het helde over
haar lichaam begon over te hellen
over de armleuning naar de grond
het oor werd zwaar
en ze luisterde
toen sprak je
warm
en vanuit een ongekende rust
Je weet het toch, mijn kind
dat zei je
en ze schrok
ze trok zich zo snel ze kon
terug uit haar oor
en sloot de deur

Translation of the lyrics:
It was years later
She invited her to listen and then she remained silent
She listened
Her left ear grew and grew
It tilted over
Her body began to lean over, over the armrest to the ground
The ear became heavy and she listened
Then you spoke
Warm and stemming from an incomparable calm
"You know it, my child"
That's what you said
And she shied away
She pulled back from her ear as quickly as she could and closed the door
