I like to keep my schedule diverse and versatile. I am always involved with several regular bands and acts, but a large part of my work also consists of individual projects.<\/p>

BEAT! PLASTIC WASTE<\/h3>

Beat Plastic Waste is a high\u2011energy percussion project that transforms discarded plastic into a vibrant musical playground.\u00a0<\/p>

Our first goal is simple: to give audiences an exciting, visually striking, and musically compelling show. At the same time, we aim to spark awareness about the global plastic\u2011waste problem. Not with heavy messaging, but through an accessible, playful experience that invites people to listen, feel, and rethink the materials around them.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

DIK Danstheater<\/h3>

Since 2024, I have been part of the major productions of DIK Dans Theater, a company devoted to creating inclusive performances where movement and music meet. Together with a fellow musician, I provide the music of each piece, weaving live sound into the choreography. DIK Dans Theater performs widely beyond the Netherlands, reaching audiences across borders, with a highlight being a 2025 performance in Singapore.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Session & Studio<\/h3>

The majority of my work as a performer comes from individual projects. This ranges from tours to studio sessions, and from one-time events to long-term projects.<\/p>

You can check out what I’ve done up to now on this page<\/a>.<\/p>

Are you looking for a drummer or handpan player for your project? Feel free to get in touch.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
