    Just ordered the two minimal piano collections finally, and Jeroen was a enough of a class act to include a DVD for free. Absolutely stunning music, and the guy seems very very nice and humble.

    Probably the best music to turn on when you go to bed - doesn't bother you through night and waking up with it is fantastic :)

    I've listened to Minimal Piano Collection vol. VI, All preludes are really good. Very soft and touchy piano work.

    Why am I not surprised that a true composer doesn't get the credit he should get *sigh*
