ECHO 001
BEFORE ORVAN
The words came first.
Almost twenty years before ORVAN had a name, I had written the idea that would eventually become Labyrinth.
I kept coming back to one thought: everyone seems to be pointing toward the same exit.
There is always a right direction.
A right way to live.
A right way to feel.
And somehow, you're expected to follow.
But what if I don't want to leave?
Years later, those old words became the starting point for something entirely new.
Labyrinth was the first song I produced while searching for a sound I didn't yet know how to name.
ORVAN didn't exist yet.
But something had already begun.
Inside the labyrinth, I'm good.
Everybody wants out, I won't.
— LABYRINTH
