A presentation of an intense and delicate piano album.
Belgian musician Bram Devens returns under his intriguing alter ego Ignatz to present his new album, *I Don’t Know*. It is his first record to be carried entirely by the piano. With this release, Devens shifts his sound towards an even more refined form in which the piano forms the beating heart of every composition.
Expect an intimate, understated piano performance rooted in folk, yet transformed into something fragile and slightly disjointed. Improvisation and spontaneity remain crucial: melodies emerge, fade and intertwine in subtle loops. His voice, fragile and distant, floats through the tracks like an echo from within.
Influences from The Velvet Underground and Henry Flynt remain palpable, but take on a new form here. Following his work with De Stervende Honden, Devens returns to the essence of his solo work, now with the piano as the central voice.
