endevenir is the solo project of Austrian/Dutch/German musician Philipp Berdenis van Berlekom, built around one recurring idea: becoming. The name, a warped fusion of “en” and “devenir”, points to becoming as an ongoing process rather than a fixed identity – what endevenir releases is less “the artist” than a trace of his becoming.
Before starting endevenir, Philipp was active as a songwriter in the German black metal scene, contributing material to Waldgeflüster’s album Femundsmarka. After several years away from releasing music, endevenir marks a quiet return under his own name.
Musically, the project moves between dark rock, post-metal, black metal, electronic passages and dark, folk-like tones. The songs follow internal breaks and shifts rather than a single genre rulebook, which makes them hard to file neatly but gives them a consistent atmosphere.
The debut album im werden zerrissen (“torn apart through becoming”) is a 32-minute work in German that stays close to these fault lines – between being and becoming, holding on and letting go. Mixed and mastered by Markus Stock, the record is less about resolution than about exploring this narrow ridge and the risks that come with remaining there.
