Ok, here's a
Q&A with me and myself.
Gimme proof!
As you can see, you'll be able to stream my new album officially 30 April 2019. Check Spotify regularly, it takes often only three weeks over there.
AMAdea, who again handles the distribution, notes:
"It takes from 3 weeks minimum, to 7 weeks maximum to get it up and
selling, once you've given us ALL the info we need. (Usually 4 weeks)
Once we send it to them, it's out of our hands and they do what they can
to get it imported and active in their service. We push them to get it
added as soon as possible, and they always do it as soon as they can."
I was wondering, how many years...?
Ah yes! This is my 40th (!) year in the, ahum, "business" as songwriter, I guess you'd be
expecting a "Greatest Hits" or another sort of a celebration box by now,
do ya? Well, all of my works have been the "Greatest Kicks" I've had in
my life anyway, so I don't need to be that nostalgic. I'm just glad to release more new stuff. Prolific guy!

What can we expect?
Tunes. 12 songs (two instrumental) with my stamp of typical energetic flavor of melodic pop songs with grooves, influenced by jazz, funk, R&B, latin, cabaret and humour.
When will you be famous?
When I'm dead and done of course. Legend in my own time. I'm happy with that, haha.
How do you write?
Mostly with a pen;
everything that widens my eyes and opens my mouth I'll write down
. I often start with the music, mostly late in the afternoon/ evening. The best songs come, when I've got a positive energy. Explosive jamming. I play around on acoustic guitar or bang on the piano. Combine a few funny or heartfellt sentences, words that fit the vowels. Sometimes it takes 5 minutes, sometimes 2 years to get to the end result.
Tell us about the recording process
Guts, sweat and beers. And a monk's patience.
When can we see that promo?
Ah, I've got two promo's for ya, they'll be up on Youtube in no time. All to watch before bedtime, before the official release, 30th april.
What are the covers and title?
I'll show them all in my next blog
.
Well, anything else to declare?
Um, well, yeah, no, um....CU
