So, We Meet Again

There's a new EP out there, called So, We Meet Again.  It's part of my upcoming album 'Soothing Hymns For Bewildered Hearts. It will be a combination of piano pieces, and pieces with mesmerizing vocals by Robin Kester, Leine, Tamara van Esch and myself.


The piece So We Meet Again is a soundtrack to a recurring dream. When I was a kid, I regularly dreamed, I was being chased by a centaur, with my own face. Everywhere I went, he would appear. He could have a different size. Sometimes I’d pick up a pillow, and there he was. He didn’t do anything. He would just stared right at me. I didn’t know if the centaur was good news or bad news. Still, I was afraid.  Years went by without meeting my centaur alter ego in my dreams, until suddenly, he was back. He aged just as much as I did. I looked at him and saw myself in reflection of his eyes. But I didn’t see the present me, I saw the 8-year-old me. I gave him a big hug.

Job Roggeveen is composer and filmmaker. He’s the guy behind award winning indie-revue project Happy Camper. He toured the Netherlands with a large group of singers and musicians. He’s also part of Emmy winning and Oscar nominated animation studio Job, Joris & Marieke. Before, Job felt convenient in his position behind an animated character or a group of singers. Now for the first time, he decided to compose music under his own name. Cinematic piano pieces, with sparkling melancholic melodies, sometimes completed with strings, electronics and percussion.
