The music video for my latest single ‘Haha’ was selected for the Amersfoort film festival SCENECS (no, I have no idea how to pronounce that). It will be shown at theatre De Kamers in Amersfoort Vathorst November 6th on a veeery large screen.
The ‘Haha’ video is part of a set of two, with Sander van der Hoorn‘s video for ‘The Other Side Of The Cage‘. Together they make an ode to the Soesterkwartier, the Amersfoort area I live in.
I guess it’s destined to be this way: I started recording this album in 2004 in my bed room at my parent’s house. I used to call that the Rbbknl Studios. And now I’m back there for two weeks to record the very last stuff for the same album, five years later.
A few years ago Abel (NIRC, Try Drowning, Piranha Hotella) and I wrote some songs together: he wrote the music, I wrote the lyrics. One of those songs, ‘Don’t Know How To Say This’ meant a lot to me, because I wrote it about someone very special. So I decided I wanted the song on my album, and I asked Abel to play the acoustic guitar.
