“There is method to my madness.” – William Shakespeare. This quote is the easiest way to sum up how Spiderstyle works on his music. He follows numerous processes while creating music that are very logical to him, but may seem very chaotic to most, madness if you must.
Growing up with a father as a DJ, Spiderstyle had lots of exposure to music and the various ways in which it could be manipulated, which turns out was just what he needed to spark his interest in creating music.
As a young teenager living in the South of The Netherlands, he spent many afternoons manipulating sounds on tapes. All this experimentation lead to an even greater hunger for audio and how songs could be changed in order to incorporate different styles and create a completely different piece of music.
Spiderstyle derived his name from friends that remarked that some of his songs crossed eight different genre defining boundaries, fusing them into one. Knowing his fascination with spiders, and spiders having eight legs, the nickname Spiderstyle was born.
Even though he often uses various different styles in the same piece of music, it is very rarely planned. It is a process that just happens as the tracks progress in their making, possibly because he has an extremely broad taste in music.
All these qualities form part of the methodical madness that is Spiderstyle’s music, so who knows what he will come up with next.
