Below is a commentary by the label.
"Martijn Comes as a composer has a special interest in tonal music and various musical traditions, with an emphasis on the history of electroacoustics. His works for carillon include Le Guess Who and Rewire He has also released several solo albums and collaborated with a wide range of contemporary artists, including Franz de Waart, Lukas Simonis, Nicoleta Chatzopoulou, and Hessel Feldman, and in 2020, Bedouin He co-produced the album ``EPoX'' published by Record.
Veldman is a veteran of Dutch avant-garde music, releasing a number of legendary cassettes on his EXART label in the early '80s. His experimental soundscapes incorporate industrial elements, creating a hypnotic, dark sonic undercurrent. In addition to performing under the name Y Create, he was also a member of the improvisation group Gorgonzola Legs, and worked intensively with Fluxus artist Willem de Ridder, a cult figure in the Dutch underground. His home taping days shaped his free-spirited approach to music. To this day, his diverse musical career spans decades, and he continues to play music according to his own insights and intuition.
Due to the emotional and poetic weight of the work, Reverend Tom de Haan was consulted for this collaborative album. It was the beginning of a musical exploration, a search for peace, balance, and above all, freedom. A place where you can reach out to distant worlds and come to terms with yourself. A journey filled with obstacles and setbacks. Sometimes we move forward tenaciously, and sometimes we become skeptical. Are the gods among us or within us? Music as an expression and manifestation of inner conflict.
Throughout each chapter of this album, layers of sound and distant voices seem to emerge, rising to the surface before disappearing again. As we rush to shore, rocked by the gentle waves, we find ourselves in an unknown place. Manifest Exodus is an album for deep listening. The four tracks are rich and immersive, with drones, ambience, intense sound textures, and an incredible sense of detail, creating a layered escape into a better world. "

"As a composer Martijn Comes has a special interest in timbral music and various musical traditions, with an emphasis on the electro-acoustic history.

Because of the emotional and poetic weight of the pieces, reverend Tom de Haan was consulted for this collaborative album. It was the start of a musical exploration and a search for peace, balance and above all freedom. Reaching out to a distant world, a place to come to terms with ourselves. A journey full of obstacles and setbacks. Sometimes persistently moving forward, sometimes doubtful. 'Are there Gods among us or inside us?' The music as a manifest, the expression of an inner struggle.
Throughout the chapters of this album layers of sound and distant voices arise and seem to float on the surface before they disappear again. Swaying on the gentle waves, running ashore, we find ourselves in unknown places. Manifest Exodus is an album for deep listening in the vein of Lustmord, Lawrence English or Rafael Anton Irisarri. It contains 4 rich, immersive pieces with austere drones, ambience, intense sonic textures and an incredible sense of detail to create a multi-layered escape to a better world."
