Joep Beving – Liminal: A Sonic Journey Through Art, Nature, and Technology
Joep Beving, the globally acclaimed artist with over 1 billion streams, has unveiled his latest masterpiece, Liminal. Released on March 20, 2026, by Deutsche Grammophon, this 15-track album is a profound exploration of art, nature, and technology, inspired by Guillaume Logé’s book Wild Renaissance.
What sets Liminal apart is not just its artistic depth but its groundbreaking format: the album is available as an EcoRecord, a sustainable vinyl made from PET instead of PVC. This innovative production process reduces energy consumption by up to 85% compared to traditional vinyl, without compromising on sound quality – a testament to Beving’s commitment to both artistry and environmental responsibility.
The album’s title, Liminal, reflects its essence – a space where meaning is still forming, a dialogue between control and intuition. Beving describes it as “a rush of possibility,” blending luminous, fantastical sounds with moments of deep contemplation. At its heart lies When humans do algorithms, a track that masterfully intertwines repetitive pulses with a delicate interplay between human expression and machine logic.
Leading up to the album’s release, Beving shared three digital singles: We are here but to make music and dance with all the obtaining forces (December 5, 2025), Wild Renaissance (January 23, 2026), and When humans do algorithms (February 20, 2026), accompanied by a captivating music video. The focus track, Ida, released alongside the album on March 20, also comes with a visually stunning video, further immersing listeners in Beving’s sonic universe.
Liminal is an invitation to pause and reflect on our place in the world, offering a sanctuary of sound that is both meditative and transformative. As Beving eloquently puts it, “To compose is not to command but to attune, to let the wild speak through us.”
Fans can experience Liminal live during Joep Beving’s European tour in May and June 2026. This album is not just a collection of tracks – it’s a journey, a conversation, and a call to embrace the liminal spaces in our lives.
Liminal is available now on EcoRecord vinyl, CD, and digital formats. Dive into this atmospheric masterpiece and let Joep Beving guide you through a world where art, nature, and technology converge.
