About Me

Hey! For those of you who don't know me yet... I'm a 26 year old student in communication. I try to combine this study with my passion for music. That means I wish to work in the music industry as a marketing/communications expert. I got the chance to work with some bands and organisations already and I've been really enjoying it so far.I also work as a sound-engineer, both live and in the studio (BFR in Baarlo). I started out mixing live in 1999 as a hobby and it got a little out of hand... Luckily I still got another hobby, that I've been practicing since I've been a child: making my own music... I'm not in a band at the moment, but I'm forming one. So keep in touch on all of these activities!

Some details on my activities so far:
-Internship at BraM , working with the B-Stage project . -Soundengineering at café de Splinter and Perron 55 -Bands I toured with:
Raï&Rif Los Cheatos Primary Colours Riverflow Nirika The Skidmarks-(co)producing:
Primary Colours - Fall The Skarabeez - Skank 'Till Your Face Falls Off Raï&Rif - promo (check out the Raï&Rif MySpace to listen)

My Interests

It's not only music... I try to keep updated on fashion, like most girls I also have a passion for shoes ;-) I'm also a bit of a MOHAA-addict in my free time. So I challenge anyone of you to a game...

I'd like to meet:

A magician on beats and samples. I'm looking for someone that's really good to start a jungle/triphop/nujazz kind of band.

Music:

Any music that just gets it right, can be any kind of genre. Though I have to admit I mostly listen to jazz and trip-hop/drum'n bass/jungle. And I also have this thing with 60's garage, surf and psychobilly. Here are some bands and artists I love the most:
Portishead Lamb Tori Amos Julie London Coldplay The Sonics

Movies:

Should not have to much drama for me... Here's a list of the ones that I love:Magnolia Amelie
Leon
High Fidelity Spinal Tap Nightmare before Christmas Star Wars

Heroes:

Definetely my father...
