The name Pantheïst (which is actually the Dutch word for 'pantheist') stands for a philosophy which is strictly personal and at the same time deeply connected with the sound of this project. A pantheist is an adherent of pantheism, a world view which claims that nature (or the universe) and God are the same entity. Pantheists regard the Universe as the totality of being, past, present and future. Its overwhelming beauty and mystery, compel their deepest reverence and wonder. Musically, Pantheïst translates this view in a sound which combines, on an abstract level, some important elements from the pantheistic philosophy. The human individual who senses that unity behind the phenomena, realizes unfortunately that although such an unity can be felt and experienced, human consciousness condems us to live closed and separated within our individuality, while only death is able to unite us by forcing us to lose our individuality. This realization evokes feelings of loss, emptiness and depression, which Pantheïst tries to capture musically.
