Introducing 'The Afterlife' versions:
"The Moth is big. It’s really really big. You can take basically any element of the recording and I feel it stands alone. The whole thing together, especially when I feel the levels are all at their proper volumes, can feel like a soundtrack to a nervous breakdown :)
This version of The Moth is essentially focused on just the choir and orchestra. The NNO (North Netherlands National Choir and Orchestra) had been practicing their parts for quite a while before I came in with the band. They had not heard the final version, in which a full orchestra and choir are almost ‘trivialized’ by the onslaught of information (by design, by the way..,) so while in rehearsal, I felt a palpable sigh of relief from the choir when I proposed doing a ‘reduction’ of The Moth: only choir and orchestra.
So that’s what you are hearing here. I hope it gives you some insight to the depths of this recording, and frankly: the NNO had no business being as amazing as they are for a weirdo like me, and I will forever be grateful to everyone involved in making it happen. They guided me through my insecurities and put such passion into what they did, that not presenting their naked work to the audience seems a crime.
Thank you to everyone involved and I hope you enjoy this take in The Moth :)" - Dev
