About Berlinwaves

Dutch but based in Berlin, I have been exploring the boundaries between acoustic and electronic music for a long time. I mostly write songs or instrumentals on guitar which is my instrument of choice and heart. I am completely auto-didactic and have experimented with instruments and tunings to inspire new paths.

My work spans solo acoustic guitar recordings, full multi-instrument compositions, and collaborative projects with a few artists across Europe. My musical background is from the late seventies and eighties. Influences vary from guitar players like Harry Sacksioni(dutch), Pat Metheny, Mike Oldfield, Paul Simon, Stefan Grossman up until classical players. My main instruments are steel string acoustic + electric and nylon guitars. I enjoy the guitarlele, 12 string and dobro as well.

Currently composing original material whilst also divining the boundaries of AI with a dutch composer-arranger, Marcel Bodaar. Visit his site here! We try to find a lowest possible level of AI that HELPS create our own music but does NOT write it all for us in a prompt. NONE of the music on this site was AI generated but still sometimes aided and abetted by a Drum-Synth or Midi files. We are curious and interested to see where this journey leads.
