ONCE UPON A TIME
My name is Dennis and I have been an artist all my life. I started writing songs when I was a teenager and writing for film in college. I had a jazz upbringing which has aided expressing myself as broad as possible. I did an internship where I was head graphic designer and I'm the bandleader of 'Ganos Lal'. I write lyrics, poems and am working on a filmscript.

ONE PLACE AND ANOTHER

ROADSTER

FIRE WALK WITH ME

DISTANT ORIGIN
ROBODOG (2014)
'Robodog' was the first album I wrote, recorded and produced all by myself. It's an experimental album that combines different genres and tells the tale of someone who fights with life divided in different chapters. All instruments are played by me.
CARBON CREEK (2019)
In 2019 in partnered up with Corné De Wolf to produce some songs I've written and I write some together. We call this project 'Çarbon Creek'. These are the first five songs. 'Shifting Gears' and 'Quiet Paradise' both had international airplay.
THE BEST OF
This is best of playlist with songs that I've recorded over the last 5 years. The genres will vary from 70's influenced pop to alternative and stoner rock. Two covers are highlighted; Highly Suspect and Incubus.
SOUNDTRACKS
One of my biggest dreams is to one day score a film. Over the years I've done some soundtracks for short video's, a documentary and commercials. This is a preview of some of those works.

MORE TO COME
Soon I will expand my site with more music, especially cinematic music, lyrics, poems, comic art, paintings and videos. Keep your eyes peeled and remember; you can't be afraid of the wind!
