Our Little Blue Boat

A song about growth and support and deep, deep love. 

English translation after the Dutch lyrics:

Wat jij me leerde
is dat ik echwel lief kan zijn
ook al deed ik je steeds pijn.

Wat je me leerde
is dat zelfbeheersing loont
waar mijn woede normaal woont.

Ik mag zijn wie ik ben
maar wie ben ik dan?
Ben ik een pleaser en nep
en hoe komt dat dan?
Je stelt de juiste vragen
en geeft me alle tijd.
Ik mag mijn fouten maken
en ben wel klaar met spijt.

Wat je me leerde
is om naar mezelf te gaan
en geen punt over te slaan.

Wat je me leerde
is dat perfectie niet bestaat,
dat ‘t zelfs nergens op slaat

om te verlangen naar iets
wat ik nooit krijgen zal,
het zorgt alleen maar voor
dat ik steeds uiteindelijk val
en me kut voel over dingen
die ik nooit zal kunnen leren
en altijd maar die strijd
om mezelf weer te kalmeren.

Nee dat hoeft niet meer,
ook al ben ik er nog niet
het scheelt al wel veel verdriet.

Want je draagt mij
zoals ik dat ook zou willen
zonder energie verspillen
aan mijn buien en mijn grillen
of het zoeken naar geschillen.

Ja het komt wel
en we hebben alle tijd,
mijn lief ik wil je niet meer kwijt!

*************

What you taught me
is that I can be sweet
even though I kept hurting you.

What you taught me
is that self-control pays off
where my anger normally resides.

I can be who I am
but then, who am I?
Am I a pleaser and fake
and how did that happen?

You ask the right questions
and you give me all the time.
I'm allowed to make my mistakes
and I'm done with regrets.

What you taught me
is to go to myself
and not to miss a point.

What you taught me
is that perfection does not exist
that it doesn't even make sense.. 
...to long for something
that I will never have. 

It only results in 
that I always end up falling deep
and feel like crap about things
that I will never be able to learn.

And always the struggle afterwards
to calm myself down again...

No, that's not necessary anymore
even though I'm not there yet,
it already saves a lot of grief.

Because you carry me,
just as I would like
without wasting energy
to my moods and my whims
or seeking disputes.

Yes it will happen
and we have all the time,
My love, I don't want to lose you anymore!

Wat jij me leerde (translation in description)

"Intensely live , Intensely  love, Intensely seek peace with nature and with men"
Seek peace with stubbornness

„Fallende Rosenblätter“ (18.10.2025)

Mein kleiner, musikalischer Klangzyklus über Blumen geht weiter.

Fallende Rosenblätter 

Zarte Rosenblätter liegen auf dem kalten Marmorstein. 
Ist das alles was geblieben ist vom Leben. Ein Marmorstein mit Gravur und verwelkten gefallenen Rosenblättern.

Eine Blüte einer Rose bleibt nicht ewig.
So auch die Liebe wie das Leben.
Wie eine Knospe einzeln gewachsen, so welken und vergehen einzeln Momente wie Rosenblätter. 
Ob gelebt oder geliebt oder auch nicht.
Wir werden zu gefallenden Rosenblättern. 
Fallen aus dem Leben und in das Leben hinein.

Vielen Dank für Eure geschätzte Aufmerksamkeit.

"Falling Rose Petals" (October 18, 2025)

My small musical sound cycle about flowers continues.

Falling Rose Petals

Delicate rose petals lie on the cold marble stone.
Is this all that remains of life? A marble stone with an engraving and wilted fallen rose petals.

A rose blossom doesn't last forever.
So does love and life.
As a bud grows individually, so do individual moments wither and fade like rose petals.
Whether lived or loved or not.
We become fallen rose petals.
Falling from life and into life.

Thank you for your valued attention.

I am still looking, trying and experimenting, I really like electronic ambient for many years, but it only works as a live percussionist. In short, nothing is black or white:)
In today's hectic world I need quiet sounds and the vast majority of songs created at night, so are my compositions such as they are.

My tracks is based on the absolute freedom of the use of sound. Arises as if I painted a picture. In the head is the base, and then adding the details here and there.
As well as if I were his music told the story.

I use: Ableton-Live-Suite with Partnerinstrumets, Kontakt Player + virtual instrumentzs,NI-Machine, Ableton Push, Acces Virus TI Snow, Waldorf Blofeld, AKAI MPK 49, Korg Microkorg XL+,KORG Kaossilator,Kaosspad,KORG Wavedrum, Roland HPD 20, nord lead A1 r, Yamaha mx49, Roland Edirol for Fieldrecordings - and various live percussion.(Kalimba, frame drum, tombak, koshi etc)
