A collection of home recorded lo-fi covers of songs I love, if you like to imperfection, vulnerability  and truth you are in the right place.
This covers have been recorded over many years starting with the oldest recorded probably around 2003 on a tape cassette multitrack.

Hey that's no way to say goodbye. (Leonard Cohen cover)

Comfort me. (Sparklehorse cover)

Half the world away. ( Oasis cover)

This Magic Moment. (Lou Reed Cover)

Norwegian Wood. (Beatles Cover)

And Then She kissed me..(Spiritulized cover)

I ll be your mirror. (The Velvet Underground Cover)

Cover version of the Cohen classic performed live at the charity concert for Jasper's Journey.  Jasper died at a very young age due to a heart problem that had never been detected.  His family and friends are raising money to provide screening opportunities so that parents and families don't have to suffer the same tragic loss.  See Cardiac Risk in the Young - C.R.Y.

Hallelujah

A tribute to Leonard Cohen who inspired me to start writing songs. He died one day before Trump got elected. lyrics:

We heard with our childrens' first belief
your poetry and magic and relief
we met your women and we heard the clear              
and soothing open E on your guitar

The lonely and the free all hear your singing
of meaning and of beauty in the longing
of all the pain of wanting more
we know the place, we all have been before

I know some in this room who learnt to write from you
heard you say something they felt they knew
you ancient master of the art of song 
and chords and metaphors and all we long

Yes you who knows so well to say goodbye
you re gracious even in the day you die
you who can feel so forlorn  
you leave it now to us to fear and mourn

Your Soothing Open E

I have an ongoing collaboration since 2018 with my friend Michael who lives in both Poland and LA. In the summer of 2025, Michael had a series of sessions with professional musician Avi on both guitar and vocals. I did production work and added bass. Beautiful stuff. This is Leonard  Cohen's "I'm Your Man".

“Als je probeert ergens bij te horen en je daar moe van wordt. Iemand vraagt aan zijn tafelgenoten: wat is transcendent en je kijkt naar alles wat achterblijft op de borden. Buiten waaien plots bladeren op. Het gaat  regenen, denk je, en dat je niet bang bent, zeg je tegen jezelf, 's nachts in het buitenland. Dan vraagt iemand jou naar vergankelijkheid, of je daartegen schrijft en zoniet, is het dan therapeutisch? Je stelt je dan gombomen  voor in de tropen, koerende duiven in gombomen.” Miriam Van hee dicht in een muzikaal bed met #HermanvanVeen #GaetaneBouchezvanVeen #GeorgeCarlin #JoLemaire #MarvinHamlisch #JoopVisser #SteveHarleyCockneyRebel #CatStevens #ElectricLightOrchestra #JJCale #JimCroce #PeterGabriel #RaymondvanhetGroenewoud #JohanVerminnen #LennyenDeWespen #StefBos #GerardCox #HansMortelmans #JaneBirkin #LesFreresJacques #BobyLapointe #SergeGainsbourg #CharlesTrenet #JacquesDutronc #LeonardCohen #JoniMitchell #BeeGees #BuddyHolly #GregoryPorter #NeilDiamond #MarianneFaithfull #AlainMazijn
