I'm a composer, pianist and drummer 
from London, England and these are my ideas/demos.
Everything here composed, performed and produced by me.

" Your story may not have such a happy beginning, but that doesn't make you who you are. It is the rest of your story that matters, who you *choose* to be." - Soothsayer (The Goat in Kungfu Panda)

So lets' just say I have madly fallen for music and am working my way into trying to reach the leagues of amazing composers.

17 For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, 18 as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.

Hendrik Oldewarris A.K.A CompreHend is a half-Dutch and British MC hailing from the small village of Barlestone on the outskirts of Leicester. CompreHend found his love of lyricism back in 2013 freestyling with his peers, and in 2015 decided to pursue his passion wholeheartedly. 

Often blending flamboyant production with technical lyricism and crystal clear cadence, CompreHend utilises a unique mix of self-awareness, ‘tongue in cheek’ humour and social narratives to create his signature sound. 

Since his inception back in 2015, CompreHend has released 3 E.P's & 15 singles supporting various legends including Lowkey (Soundtrack to the struggle) and Sox (Lord of the Mics), to even being co-signed and performing a string of shows around the U.K with Skinnyman (Council Estate of Mind). Other major achievements include a main stage performance at Leicester’ Caribbean Carnival to a crowd of over 8,000 people, a spot on the Spotify editorial playlist ‘Stepping Out’, and in 2022 CompreHend embarked on his debut U.K tour and featured on London MC Big Rebz’ album ‘Irritable Vowel Syndrome’, which peaked at number 2 on the Itunes U.K Hip-Hop Charts. 

The dual-nationality lyricist exploded onto the TikTok scene at the start of 2023 with his semi-viral single 'Don't Be Like Me' and signature duets gaining him over 1.1 million views in just over 3 months. 

CompreHend returns with his second single of 2023 'Clouds', which utilises the wealth of talent in his home town of Leicester, featuring dreamy vocals from singer Its'Evee-Megann & spacey production from Maniscooler & Harri Georgio. 

The catchy and melodic track 'Clouds' shows CompreHend open up about his inner workings, touching on subjects such as mental health issues, life lessons and insecurities and will be available everywhere May 26th.

Media Composer from the UK based in Germany. 
Graduate: BA hons Digital Music and Sound Art at the University of Brighton.
