English version (Dutch version below):

Guitars, IT job, piano, clarinet, and saxophone...

Among these, the saxophone struck a profound chord with me and became a lifelong passion. It led me to discover my love for jazz and improvisation, particularly in the realm of mainstream, melodic jazz. The songs I composed during the '80s and '90s reflect this preference but also incorporate unique harmonies and time signatures.

Although I  frequently performed these compositions on stage, it wasn't until 2022 that I decided to record and release them. This endeavor resulted in two albums, A10 and Thisav, as well as a track named "Chujad."" In August 2023, I unveiled Fried, an album featuring entirely new compositions with a fresh perspective on rhythm and blues chord sequences. February 2025 witnessed the release of Airlift, new compositions with a focus on backing rhythms. Thank you for your support, and I hope you enjoy the music.

Dutch version:

Gitaar, IT baan, piano, klarinet en saxofoon...

Hiervan raakte vooral de saxofoon een diepe snaar en werd een levenslange passie. Het leidde tot mijn liefde voor jazz en improvisatie, vooral in het gebied van mainstream en melodieuze jazz. De nummers die ik componeerde in de jaren '80 en '90 weerspiegelen deze voorkeur, maar bevatten ook unieke harmonieën en maatsoorten.

Hoewel ik deze composities vaak op het podium heb uitgevoerd, vond ik pas in 2022 de gelegenheid om ze op te nemen en uit te brengen. Dit resulteerde in twee albums, 'A10' en 'Thisav', evenals een losse track genaamd 'Chujad'. In augustus 2023 gevolgd door 'Fried', een album met volledig nieuwe composities met een frisse kijk op rhythm en blues akkoordenschema's. Februari 2025 was getuige van de geboorte van 'Airlift', nieuwe composities met een focus op de backing ritmes. Dank voor de steun, en ik hoop dat u van de muziek zult genieten.

PROGland (Cranberry Juice):

“Cranberry Juice” is a captivating instrumental that expertly blends jazz with bossa nova influences, creating a smooth, groovy atmosphere from start to finish. The track is defined by its intricate jazz rhythms, with a laid-back yet sophisticated feel that the bossa nova elements bring to the forefront. The saxophones play a pivotal role in the track, their interaction adding layers of texture and depth to the composition. The interplay between the saxes is seamless, with each one weaving in and out of the melody, creating a sense of conversation and fluidity. Their expressive lines complement the smooth rhythm section, enhancing the track’s sophisticated vibe. The overall arrangement allows the horns to shine, while the gentle, rhythmic pulse maintains an inviting, almost hypnotic quality. “Cranberry Juice” is a refined, well-crafted piece that brings together the best of both jazz and bossa nova in a fresh, dynamic way.
