When I make music, I always envision a movie scene. A tense fight, or a moment alone in a car with rain streaking down the window. I’d love to create music that brings your story to life.
My artist projects
Vulpen
Mist curls between the trees as a single sunbeam breaks through the canopy and embraces you. Vulpen (Vini van Meijgaarden, Oscar Merx and Anne Pluimers) creates music like a dream you don’t want to wake from: comforting and full of hope. Folk, ambient, and film music blend into a world you’re able to lose yourself for a while. With influences like Eels and Bon Iver.
Artemyn
ARTEMYN is the captain of a starship, navigating a hyper-capitalist future where freedom comes at the barrel of a laser. The sound is cinematic and raw, blending towering aggression with quiet, personal collapse. Inspired by the likes of Arcane and Starset.
Vinicus
From soft spacey textures to raw DnB riffs, Vinicus brings live guitar into orbit with their DJ sets. With influences like Kenya Grace, Fox Stevenson, Paper Dragon, and Camo & Krooked, their music is all about connection, guiding even first-time explorers through the stars of DnB
Other projects
While these three projects define parts of my sound, some pieces don’t quite fit. Here’s the rest of the story.
Komt wel goed is a short film about Mark and Saar. Mark lost one of his friends to suicide and has been shutting down emotionally, sinking into depression. Saar faces harassment on the street and at work, simply for being a woman. When they get stuck in an elevator together, they’re forced to open up about their struggles and resolving them.
I composed the introduction, visible here:
Trailer music
To practice writing trailer music, I created a custom score for the series The 100. I extended the video slightly to give myself more room to build a fuller, more dynamic composition. This is not an official trailer, just a personal exercise in scoring.
Encore is a short animation made in collaboration with BUAS students. For this project, I worked on the sound design, specifically focusing on movement sounds.
