A lot, because it’s my first baby you know. It feels special because I thought about the project for 2 years without making any music and I finally did it
You created a video with Robbert Doelwijt, how did this collaboration come about and how was the experience?
I’ve been trying to work with Robbert a while, because i really liked his work. And when I was done with the music for Sintha I asked him if we could make a short movie for the EP.

All the homies, too much to mention! But I love everybody’s contribution
