FaceCulture doet video interviews met artiesten uit binnen- en buitenland. In de afgelopen zes maanden zijn uiteenlopende artiesten als Max Cavalera, Spinvis, Boudewijn de Groot, Within temptation, Junkie XL en vele anderen voor onze camera verschenen. Daarnaast zijn mijn interviews ook in print te bewonderen. Ik heb gepubliceerd in Aloha, Heaven en Samsonic. Voor de muzieksite MusicFrom schrijf ik columns.

Theo van Gogh is niet meer. Vier jaar geleden spraken we met hem in zijn huis in Amsterdam-Oost. Natuurlijk kwam de islam ter sprake, maar Theo vertelde ook over regisseren, liefde, politiek en zijn columns.

As they say in Holland ‘Good things arrive fast’. FLORiS arrived very fast. The musician and producer from Amsterdam surprised everyone when he presented his very strong debut album. With his second album ‘Drunk On Life’ FLORiS underlines his talent for fusing catchy melodies, down-tempo electronics, exciting soundscapes, deep grooves, striking beats, conventional live instruments and atmospheric samples. The result is confronting, heavenly and spacey: Trip-Pop.
