My name is Jan Driessen, I live in Groningen (the Netherlands) and I love music. That's why I'm studying at the conservatoire - a course called CMS: composition, music and studioproductions. It's a lot of fun, because I'm in a class with 6 others equally interested in music.
As a toddler, I used to listen to the music my dad would have playing in the house or in the car: Zappa, Beefheart, Coltrane and Monk usually. In the car, I would order my dad to play We're Only in it for the Money all the time, and we would sing along to every song.
As I grew older, my parents decided to buy me an alto saxophone, because I had said I liked the sound of it. So I got one when I was 7 years old. That hasn't been going exactly flawless and I got more attracted to composing and producing later on. I started playing bass guitar in 2006, playing Flea basslines and that funky stuff. I've been developing my ears and challenging myself with all kinds of weird music.
Right now, I can listen to pretty much any music and hear something in it I like. I love jazz, hip hop, electronic music, and pretty much anything from the 60s and the 70s.
Anyway, I've been making beats since 2007 and this is the page I occasionally update with beats and strange pic's.
big up to all the headz!
Two abstract urban meditations composed by French visual artist Jérôme Schlomoff.
Both filmed with a pinhole movie 35mm camera, these two films create mysterious and eerie portraits of the two cities, a ghostly New York City under a snowstorm and a poetical exploration of Amsterdam as a city suspended between past, present and future, in a visual voyage filmed at some of the city’s building sites.
Both films are going to be presented with a live soundtrack performed by experimental hip-hop producer Smooth One and bass player Mouard Baali.
