BIO:

Hey! I am Roel van Veldt and I'm a composer and a songwriter. My songs and melodies are born out of improvisations on the piano. I love to improvize on my own as well as before live audiences, out of the blue or on an original theme.
Want to collaborate? Hear from you soon! :-)

I'd love to put music (piano and singing) on your lyrics and It'd be great if you could add your instrument/voice/lyrics to my song or make your own very personal version of it. Just tell me in what way you'd like to collaborate. Thank youououou!

Hi! I didn't see you'd posted a recording for "Why Did I Think" until just recently. It's really great! Thanks for taking so much time to make it!

Thanks a lot for making something that wonderful out of these lyrics, Roel! :-) I love it!

Hi Roel - thanks for the heads-up about the demos. I loved them! Thanks for letting me in on the collab :D

Arthur Rossi

Roel, thanks a lot for your nice comment, take all the time you need and I look very forward to it... You are free to alter the lyrics in any way as you like or as you regard as necessary. Thanks a lot for taking this effort upon you!

Paul Milne

Hi again Roel, maybe we can move this to email? I'm on paul.stephen.milne@gmail.com - drop me a line and I'll send you some suggestions for the songs you're collaborating on.

Paul Milne

Hi Roel, got your message and i'm willing to take a look at the lyrics you mentioned. As you can see, I didn't actually change very much of the lyrics I worked with, it helps to have high quality material to start with! Let's hear what Arthur has to say, and then perhaps I can run some ideas by him first?

Comment by Roel van Veldt
I'm in a great new job since two weeks, I am making music every night, just got no energy left to edit & upload. :-)

Hey Roel, I hope you are fine... some hours ago I left a comment on Nadia`s soundboard also containing a reference to you. She told me you might like to read it, too. Although I really meant all the way I wrote, I feel a bit embarrassed to repeat it here now again. If you like, just drop by to her...
kind regards

Hi, of course I remember you from last year! If you want to write music for "Why Did I Think," go ahead. I hadn't had any musical ideas for that, so I'll be excited to see what you come up with.

I think your version works better Roel :)

I meant our collab where you were suggesting some changes.

I posted this on the song page ("How could I know?") but in case you don't see it there: Roel - I really like it! It sounds like a number in a Broadway play...and it is really catchy -- I found myself singing to the melody all day. As always, you took the emotion of the words/story and put them exactly to the right music...thank you. If you want, I'd love to listen to anything else too, just for fun - but please feel free to post this!! XXOO, Ellen

Comment by Roel van Veldt
Thank you Ellen! If you sing the song along, that's a good sign, I think. :-) § Roel

Excellent work on "Zen Breakfast" You even captured the dynamics of the song with only a verbally suggested outline. Very nice job on the instrumental bridge and the ending.

And again, you're very kind. To try to answer your question about the mix on "The singing planks" - it was thrown together in a hurry for Nick to add his parts. The plan is to get Nick to send me his guitar work as a stem file so I can do a "proper" mix. What you hear in the demo is Nick playing over the top of my rough-cut mp3 that I sent him.

And as for who is singing... that's my little secret. ;)

You are very kind, Roel!

For the record, I make music as a hobby, not as a commercial venture... ;)

Roel, it's probably too much to ask this early, but do you have a lead sheet or similar for Winter Wind? I'd like to use in my evening setlist and I haven't got time right now to learn it by ear!

Arthur Rossi

Roel! Thank you very much for your comments, I was so delighted when reading them! I am looking very, very forward to a possible collaboration. Choose anything you like and it will be an honour to me... Once again, thank you very much for being willing to give a go to "you´re the one for me"...

What, you mean you changed my lyrics??? Haha, of course that's what it is all about - when people create the music they can see what fits and what doesn't and whatever works with your music always works with me. You are awesome Roel! I love your work so much! Please feel free to swap my lyrics and post your version and put your name together with mine for the lyrics and all the musical credit of course :) Thank you so much for your beautiful and so romantic work! Are you okay if I post it on Soundclick?

Arthur Rossi

Hey Roel! I read your bio and love the way you do... I am a pure lyricist and would love to collaborate... If you like and find the time, just drop by and in the case you find anything you like it would be a great pleasure to me if you gave it a go...
Best regards,
Arthur

Thank you so much for the music to my lyrics. I love it! I love piano so that made it sound even better to me. And I most definitely love the ending of the song. The piano there is gorgeous. You did an amazing job. :)

Hi Roel - I would love for you to upload your demo. I end up with multiple artists doing the same lyric set in most Timed Song Challenges; my record is currently 4.

I've set up the page for you, so all you have to do is add the magic link.
