NoirEau 2020
Trio from Utrecht that produces “small” sounds with objects and then launches epic enlargements into space. An 21st century interpretation of the Musique Concrète movement, with a touch of industrial and dark ambient noise, where the experiment is not shunned. Listen to Février.

Recording session with Stems 2016
On a cold day in february we recorded the song Eclipse in the Serpentine Studio. Stems is a great three piece instrumental band from Huddersfield (UK) with drums, guitar and cello. They describe it as: to mix experimental guitar and classical instruments, to create music with the energy of rock music but with the elongated and elaborate structures of Western and Indian classical music.
Recording session with Port of Call 2014 – 2015
This is a very talented friend who knows his way around songwriting and guitar playing. And his disarming singing will blow you away. We did a small tour together (with This Leo Sunrise) and I recorded some violin and cello for his album Our body it like an ocean, it changes.
On tour with Wooden Ambulance 2014
This is a great band from Serbia. The singer Goran went to the Netherlands for a busy week of touring in the lowlands. I’ve been asked to join this ‘solo’ tour in february 2014, together with Ivana and Pieter. We played in several cosy livingrooms and we’ve met wonderful people. It was a nice experiment and a fantastic week! Listen to the song Dishonest, live recorded by Serpentine
Stay in Tune 2013
I’m so honored that Rutger Zuydervelt asked me to be part of his project Stay in tune. This is a brilliant audio work and installation based on the moment when an orchestra gets in tune, before a performance. More then 150 musicians and singers were asked to record an ‘a’, using whatever technique or style they liked (amongst them Peter Broderick). The result was a fantastic piece of modern music! The installation was showed at the festival Into the Great Wide Open 2014. Check it out!
Recording and touring with Bart van der Lee 2013 – 2014

Le Noise di Figaro 2015
The band Lärmschutz that sounds like “freejazz, garage, psychedelica, noise (lot’s of noise!), punk, free improvisation and sheer volume”, invited me and my cello to join their improv modern opera project. It is released on tape on the New York based label Ephem Aural in 2016. Listen to it over here
