Personal vision

Life and personal progression

I am a neoclassical pianist, producer, and composer. My music blends classical piano with a modern touch.

With a passion for innovation, I aim to explore the fusion of neoclassical music with electronic elements in my future projects, creating a unique and captivating soundscape. Driven by a desire to push the boundaries of sound, I experiment with a combination of organic sounds, airy acoustic instruments, and electronic elements. This approach allows me to shape a rich and immersive auditory experience that transcends traditional genre boundaries.

Looking ahead, I plan to delve deeper into the world of electronic music. By integrating electronic sounds with neoclassical compositions, I strive to craft a distinctive and forward-thinking musical journey that resonates with a diverse audience. My work is characterized by a commitment to creating music that is both emotionally evocative and sonically adventurous. Through my compositions, I want to take listeners on a journey, blending the familiar with the unexpected to create a truly unique listening experience.

Olivier

Olivier Stollenwerk is a musician and producer from Haarlem, the Netherlands. He began playing piano at the age of eight and, after years of traditional music education, chose in 2022 to step away from sheet music and develop his own approach to composing by ear.

With a strong affinity for genres such as trip-hop, soul, and jazz, Olivier has developed a personal approach to both composition and production. His journey into music production began with GarageBand and has since evolved into Ableton, which he now uses as his primary DAW.

Combining digital production with hardware and acoustic instruments, Olivier explores new techniques and workflows across both commercial and experimental projects. His current focus is on recording acoustic piano, experimenting with microphone techniques to capture natural, expressive performances with a human character rather than an overly processed sound.
