Jurgen Veenstra has been part of the Dutch underground for decades, playing in more bands than he cares to remember, but going out on his own was not part of the equation. The pandemic happened and he found himself stuck at home and left on own his devices - including a 4 track Tascam. He put the latter to good use, capturing a wealth of intricate lo-fi songs, some of them far complex than is usual in this barebones setup.
Fast forward to 2023 and enter the brothers Arno and Stefan Breuer, who have been following Veenstra's career closely.
