About me & the Law

About me:

Just an ordinary guy making music in his studio

Making music is not about creating a song, it’s about telling a story.

art431’s home studio at night: a wide monitor with a music project, a laptop, a tablet with a synthesizer app, keyboards and pad controllers lit in colour, headphones and two speakers on a wooden desk under three pendant lamps
The studio

The software

  • Screenshot of Ableton Live 11: tracks and coloured clips in the Arrangement view
  • The Euclidean app icon: a rainbow-coloured waveform on black, with the word EUCLIDEAN
  • The Minimoog Model D app icon: the Moog logo over the synthesizer’s knobs and keys
  • The King of Digital app icon: a cartoon bearded king with a sword on a dark grid, with the words KING D
  • The Animoog Z app icon: the Moog logo in a ring of coloured light on a green grid

The Law

Article 431 of the Criminal Code of the Netherlands states that disturbing the night's sleep by noise or noise from neighbors is punishable with a fine of the first category.

So play it loud. Just maybe not after midnight.
