Throw Me Into The Sea - Naomi Seine
Litanie is an EP in collaboration with singer and theatre maker
Naomi Seine, in which five songs by Jacques Brel have been uniquely modernized and electronically reworked to give Jacques Brel's music a touch from the twenty-first-century.
'Gooi Me In De Zee' is a song from the performance 'Als Wolken Konden Dodenl' by theatre maker and singer Naomi Seine.
In the song, Hendrik used sound recordings of the sea to support the musical story, on top of that he added harp samples made by harpist Sanne Bakker, which create a terrifying effect.

The Air Belongs to Everyone - Judith Agaath
"Wie Volgt" is an adaptation and translation of the song "Au Suivant," written by Jacques Brel in 1964. The aim is to breathe new life into this song by using modern production and synthesizers.
"Wie Volgt" was written as an anti-war song, which is suddenly all the more relevant these days. It's bizarre that a song written as a response to World War II still has such poignant lyrics. When you listen to "Wie Volgt," you feel the shocking forces that war can bring.
"De Lucht Is Van Iedereen" (The Air Belongs to Everyone) is the second track in a two-part series in collaboration with Judith Agaath. "Machine" and "De Lucht Is Van Iedereen" are composed in a specific way, allowing them to be listened to as two separate singles or as one long track with two chapters. "Machine" comments on the current times, the use of phones and other tools, while "De Lucht" offers a stark contrast and a more optimistic outlook.
