“I thought I would take Goose, an electronic outfit from Belgium, to my favorite Italian restaurant, which they enjoyed tremendously. All this buttering up was kind of in vain since they had already decided what to use for the cover of Synrise from the roughs. So the long vinyl groove stretching across the countryside was the chosen design – it was hell to do, with heavy slabs of rubber grooves – no fun for the faint-hearted – but a satisfying result or so I thought but we didn’t see the band again until an opening night party for our exhibition in Ostend, where they told me they collected an award for our cover design that I didn’t know about previously – should’ve left theirs out of the exhibition, but I didn’t.” – Rupert
