Percussion, electronics and sound
from composed works to spontaneous experiments.
A New Dawn
A New Dawn was created during a period of stillness and recovery. Blending percussion and electronics, the album moves through fragility, resistance, calm and energy. It is music shaped by time, silence and the need to begin again.

Soloworks
In my solo works, I translate experiences from travel and collaboration into my own sound — moving between stillness and percussive energy.
Left Left Left
A solo work for percussion and electronics
Left Left Left is an ambient work exploring stillness, warmth and a sense of peacefulness.
All sounds are self-created: marimba tones recorded note by note, stretched and transformed into slowly unfolding textures. The piece grew out of a search for sound through building and shaping my own synthesizers — both analog and acoustic.
Performed live at the Concertgebouw Amsterdam.
Seaside Dream
Seaside Dream is inspired by a moment in Essaouira, Morocco. Early in the morning, as the sun rose over the ocean, the light reflected endlessly across the water — opening up a horizon that felt infinite.
The piece balances acoustic percussion and electronics, focusing on resonance, transparency and a quiet sense of hope.
Performed live at the Concertgebouw Amsterdam in a 4D sound setting.
Saomu
A solo work for marimba
Saomu is inspired by my time in São Paulo, Brazil, and the city’s vibrant rhythmic energy. The piece moves between lyrical marimba lines and rhythmic intensity, shaped by Brazilian rhythm traditions.
Essa
A work for percussion and ensemble.
Essa is inspired by my study trip to Essaouira, Morocco, and explores North African rhythm traditions through repetition, ritual and collective pulse.
