about

Michiel's music reflects on deep sensitivity and struggles to express it. His compositions unveil suppressed emotions, sharing his inner world. Amidst his musical journey, he ponders on embracing sensitivity while true to masculine identity. In a society with traditional masculinity norms, it's a challenging exploration.

“This album is not just a collection of pieces; it is a journey through my soul, a quest for balance between my inner world and the expectations of the external world. I invite you to travel along and explore the boundaries of emotion and identity together. I hope that this musical exploration also touches your heart.”
