Bassplayer & Backline Tech/Hire

About Me

Music is my passion , hobby and since I've made the decision to become selfemployed , it's my job. And what a great job it is ! A professional since 1998 . Self-educated and an emotional bassplayer, straight from my heart and soul. I'm very serious in what I do , always sober , flexible , and yeah - I'm the responsible guy !

I'm also a highly respected BACKLINE TECH ( Roadie ) specialised in GUITARS and DRUMS , GEAR & ARTIST TRANSPORT , BACKLINE RENTAL / HIRE , (inter-)national STAGE , TOUR & ROAD MANAGEMENT. To make a story short , I make every artist and band's life easier.

I'm always looking for new or used GEAR : AMPS + CABINETS + BASSGUITARS , especially ARTIST and SIGNATURE BASSES to complete my collection. Mail me and we will discuss prices !

Roxas is a LUDWIG DRUMSET - SNARES - BAGS dealer. Mail me for prices.

Have fun !

Influences: I started playing bass , when I heard "Mark King" slapping and popping his bass in 80's pop-funk band "Level 42".

Because I'm self-educated and been playing around in differetn styles so long and was openminded learning and listening to every style of music , I became an allround bassplayer. I just love every band that has good basslines in it.

Tony Kanal , Darryl Jones , Marcus Miller , Steve Harris , Mike Dirnt , Mark Hoppus , Pino Palladino , Reggie Hamilton , Sting , ( I can go on for hours ... )
And don't forget our great Belgian bassplayers like : Bart Buls , Carlo Van Belleghem , ...
