2018 release. Conatus is a selection of remixes and a further expansion of his desire to create a simple soundtrack to accompany our complex human emotions. It's title comes from the philosophical concept of conatus - an innate inclination of a thing to continue to exist and enhance itself. If you see music as a living organism, then it's something that will always adapt to new circumstances in order to stay present. This project is not about me. It is about the conatus of my music and for this album I've put their lives in other people's hands. Beving invited a range of artists he knows and admires - Cello Octet Amsterdam, Suzanne Ciani, Tom Trago, Eefje de Visser, Colin Benders, Andrea Belfi, CFCF and Thomas Bloch - to rework his music in their own way. The results are not remixes in the club sense, therefore, but new and original interpretations of tracks by Beving, woven together on Conatus to form a coherent album. As well as approaching legendary American electronic music pioneer Ciani, Beving was also keen to involve other musicians from his native Netherlands: They're all people I think easily hold their own on the international scene.
