“Channeling emotions into a beautiful work of art is truly therapeutic.” (Rick Rubin)

This is a very defining quote in my work. My creativity is fueled by my feelings. I envision vibrant conversations between the guitar and piano sequences in most of my songs as an emotional outlet. I aspire to make music that strikes a chord with the listener. My musical genre is composed of, but not confined to Instrumental Hip-Hop, Jazzy beats, Chill beats and Lo-Fi Hip Hop.

Currently based in Amsterdam, I am passionate about sound design and work on recording my own sounds and instruments from scratch. With my music, I try to bring the world around me to life—from modern cityscapes to natural scenery. I enjoy collaborating with other artists and love learning different approaches to music creation.

Today I'm set to further establish my name as a producer, songwriter, and musician. I'm collaborating with many artists to transform our musical vision into reality.

Vision - EP

Vision

The Vision EP opens with the title track, a soulful collaboration between RINZ., Midnight Hour, and Valleyman. Born from a full day of creative flow at the iconic Wisseloord Studios in Hilversum, "Vision" sets the tone for the project with warm textures, immersive melodies, and a calm sense of clarity. It’s a song that feels both grounded and inspired—like taking a deep breath after a long journey and finally seeing the path ahead. The laid-back groove and atmospheric vibe offer a moment of pause and presence, hinting at the themes of nature, change, and introspection that follow.

Changing Forest

Flowing gently into “Changing Forest,” the EP steps into a more organic, serene world. Inspired by sunlight filtering through leaves and the quiet joy of being immersed in nature, this track blends lowkey drums, warm bass, and lush guitar licks into a comforting sonic embrace. It’s music for slow mornings, peaceful walks, or simply sitting still with your thoughts. RINZ. and Midnight Hour channel the beauty of transformation here—how nature changes slowly, softly, yet with certainty.

Where is it all going

“Where is it all going” shifts the tone inward with a more reflective mood. Built around gentle guitar plucks, mellow piano chords, and understated rhythms, this track captures the feeling of watching a sunset alone, wondering where time has gone. There’s a quiet weight to this piece, but it never loses its warmth. It invites listeners to let go of the need for answers and simply feel—ideal for late-night journaling, winding down, or drifting into a peaceful headspace.

Copa Cobana

The journey ends on a light note with “Copa Cobana,” a track that radiates effortless joy. Breezy acoustic guitars and soft grooves wrap the listener in a cozy, sun-drenched atmosphere. It’s the sound of a golden afternoon—playful yet soothing, simple yet full of life. After the introspective tones of the previous songs, “Copa Cobana” feels like a gentle exhale, encouraging you to stay present, soak up the moment, and let the music carry you forward.

Dehydrated Illusions

"Dehydrated Illusions" is a track I crafted during the peak of summer, back in July last year. It was part of my 30-day beat challenge, where I pushed myself to create new music every day. This particular tune was crafted on one of the hottest days I've ever experienced. I was literally melting away the heat and getting extremely dehydrated.

As sweat dripped down my face, I grabbed my guitar and recorded this wonderfully off-kilter riff that seemed to embody the sweltering heat. To add an exotic touch, I incorporated the rhythmic allure of bongos. Surprisingly, the entire composition came together in just a couple of hours. It was a moment of creative flow that I won't forget.

Listening back to "Dehydrated Illusions" a few times later, I knew it had become one of my all-time favorite tracks. There was something about its unique energy and the way it captured the essence of that blistering summer day. It became a personal milestone, a testament to my dedication and love for music.

Cornerstone

‘Cornerstone’ immerses the listener from the first second and keeps the attention until the last one. Starting off with a spiritual tribal theme, I combine flowy guitars and intricate percussion with eloquent electric guitar passages and thick electronic synths, introducing more and more sounds until the track sound like modern electronic.
