Neutral Buoyancy

balance

During the pandemic, factors including childcare and working from home are increasing stress levels, which can in turn cause headaches and migraines.Since people have been shuttered up during the pandemic, they’ve also been spending more time looking at computer and smartphone screens and drinking wine.

Everybody Nice

Everybody Nice

liked

Do you have to suffer for your art? It's only when emerge from a period of illness that you can look at the darkness and find the words to describe it. So maybe the key to being a great artist and songwriter with a long and happy life is to dare to go to those dark places – but don't make them your home.

Bones

Bones

grief

If you’re holding off on fully feeling your grief, you might find that it manifests in a different way. Headaches, irritability, aches and pains, anxiousness, mood swings, or feeling numb and apathetic are all typical delayed grief symptoms.

Negative Buoyancy

down

Negative buoyancy occurs when an object is denser than the fluid it displaces. The object will sink because its weight is greater than the buoyant force.

Rain

Rain

coping

The weather supplies many metaphors for our changeable minds. Moods can brighten and darken, dispositions can be sunny, futures can be under a cloud and relationships can be stormy. Like the weather, our emotions sometimes seem like fickle forces of nature: unstable, enveloping and uncontrollable.

Waves

Waves

love

Interlude to something more profound, a deeper love and back in to your eyes.

Circuit Dreams

Circuit Dreams

stress

To live a fluid life, we need balance – between what has been to what will be.

Alzheimer's disease, also referred to simply as Alzheimer's, is a neurodegenerative disease that usually starts slowly and gradually worsens over time. The most common early symptom is difficulty in remembering recent events. Although the speed of progression can vary, the typical life expectancy following diagnosis is three to nine years.

silence

Positive buoyancy occurs when an object is lighter than the fluid it displaces. The object will float because the buoyant force is greater than the object’s weight.

this is me

darkvoice

Born in 1973. Living in: Amsterdam. Started producing voice basic music after my fathers death in 1997. Voice Based Music: voices as THE main instrument. All sounds during these times are recodings of voices / vocals (which mostly are mine). Experimenting with techno / ambient / beats / rythms and landscapes of noises. Although I am a happy positive kind of guy, making dark sounds is something I really enjoy. Many years later (being a parent) exploring other ways to express my moods / feelings using gear and computer generated sounds. Making music is a way to do something without boundaries, rules and very personal way to make what I want.
