The score was done by me (duh), together with the amazing cello player Lucija Gregov, and is now available as an album too (digital only) with two outtakes added for ultimate listening pleasure.

Another performance by Marta & Kim, this time with added dancers Marie Khatib-Shahidi and Hellen Boyko. The gorgeous piece (with fantastic lighting design by Loes Schakenbos) premièred in The Hague recently, and will be performed throughout the Netherlands in the coming months.

It’s quite different from the live expererience, with shorter, more studio-taylored songs. Besides adding electronics, my job was to mix the album (after Roel Snellebrand did a first rough draft) and do some editing and manipulations. It turned out really well, so please take a listen.

I’m lucky to be part of this project, alongside trumpeteer Alistair Payne, trombone player Nabou Claerhout, percussionist Tsubasa Hori, guitarist/bassist Simon Jermyn, and organist Hayo Boerema. After a few amazing concerts, the Youran album is now released!

Defenitly a musical highlight this year, Carrier's 'Rhythm Immortal'. Minimalist Photek-vibes, but more free-form/organic. Fantastic stuff (and a beautiful cover too).

With 50 tracks in 65 minutes, this album (or should I say mixtape?) is a bit of a bumpy ride, so buckle up!
The album is available as a pay-what-you-want download and as a CDr edition on Bandcamp. And it's streaming on your platform of choise.

Surprise!
It’s not the most imaginative album title, but it’s definitely spot-on. Selected from over 300 tracks, 'Fifty Favorite Frontlinie Fragments' brings together some of my favorite music cues I created for the Dutch documentary series Frontlinie.

Back in 2010 I self-published a small booklet, with collected sound descriptions by friends, musicians, and artists (incl. Taylor Deupree, Tori Kudo, John Butcher, Sarah Payton, and many more).
It was a fun project, and decided today that I'd share it as a free PDF: shorturl.at/3BIIK
