We’ll hit the stage at the Frisian Metal Night 2025! December 24th, Neushoorn, Leeuwarden NL. Free entry! Check us out and other great acts, a.o.: Super Star Gods (reunion show) Bladecrusher Boneripper More info: linktr.ee/blossomandwi... #metalsky #metal #heavymetal #musiciansky #postmetal

Syndicate by #TheMidnight is everything and more I hoped it would be. It holds the same magic Endless Summer in 2016 does, but with more vocal 'confetti', rich sounds & production, utterly fantastic songwriting and an amazing flow in the tracklist of the album open.spotify.com/album/58ZdIU...

Dutch late night TV has its take

Recently I did my first #portrait #photography shoot in the streets and I really enjoyed it. It was such an insightful experience! Jasmijn is an absolute pleasure to work with. www.ericvellekoopphotography.nl/portfolio/po... #nikon #tamron #tamron35150 #streetphotography #portraitshoot

I've finished sorting and editing my first portrait photography shoot. Jasmijn is just the best: a good friend and very helpful. I'm pretty happy with the results! I'll share them here and on my website soon. #photography #process #WIP

We’ve had an absolute blast at Duister Collectief at @dbsutrecht.bsky.social. Thank you, Robert, @thalossacritas.bsky.social, Throwing Bricks, DB's, its crew and volunteerts and of course Jouke for all your efforts and help. 📸 Photos by @lisannelentink.bsky.social

Just fell in the trap of the iOS26 public beta, just like last year. This time, it's just utterly buggy and jittery and that comes naturally with beta software, but man... Returning your iPhone back to iOS18 is really a pain in the ass.

38M! 🎉

I'm so incredibly excited to announce the launch of my photography website! Check out my portfolio if you're interested. 🔗 www.ericvellekoopphotography.nl 🔗 #Nikon #photography #musicphotography #concertphotography

Think of Tesseract, but more bouncy, like old Thornhill. Add a lil sweet Vola to the mix and don't forget to top if off with some The Contortionist, and you end up with: Karmanjakah. Possibly my new favourite band of, at least, this year. www.karmanjakah.com #progressivemetal #progmetal #djent

I'm building a website for my #concertphotography right now on Squarespace, because social media destroys all quality in the pictures. Check my photos out at Instagram for now: www.instagram.com/ericvellekoo... #Nikon #musicphotography

Some of my favourite photos I took last week. Follow me here: linktr.ee/ericvellekoo... #photography #concertphotography #musicphotography #bandphotography #nikon #tamron

Oh hey Bluesky. It's been a few busy weeks. - Work has been chaotic and eating lots of my time, but fullfilling too. - My enthusiasm for photography is soaring with new gear in the shape of specific, awesome lenses (Tamron 35-150mm f2-2.8 and Nikkor Z 50mm f1.4) for the Nikon Z5.

I had great fun with great people that night! 📸: www.instagram.com/roos_haar_fo... #musiciansky #drummersky #drums #musicsky

We want to thank each and everyone who attended our Nevermore album release show, May 2nd. Without #Gavran and #DeRedding f.k.a. #Dodenbezweerder, this amazing night wouldn’t be possible and we would like to thank them again 🙏🖤 #metal #metalsky #NLmetal #metalfromNL #musiciansky #progressivemetal

The office for tonight. Playing drums with Jasper Maarten. Check out his catchy singer-songwriter pop ✌️ open.spotify.com/track/7fpRu0... #drumsky #drums #drummers #popmusic #singersongwriter

Zo hey, wat een knaller! Absolute banger, strongly recommended! FFO: noise rock/postpunk à la Daughters, Maruja

Started my ambition to be a concert photographer. Follow my journey here 👇 linktr.ee/ericvellekoo... 2Destroy playing at Hard op Koningsdag @ #Neushoornlwd, NL. #concertphotography #nikonphotography #musicphotography #bandphotography #nikon #viltrox #metalsky #darkroomapp

What a life goal to have the music of my band pressed on vinyl. So happy! #nikonZ5 #nikonphotography

My dearest girlfriend and I invested in a new toy. Say hello to our new camera. Nikon Z5. Here with the standard 24-50mm f4/6.3 kitlens. Sick photos incoming. #nikon #nikoncamera #nikonz5

Post-metal alert: de vrijmibo kan van start met drie vettige nieuwe platen van #InnerCabala, @blossomandwither.bsky.social en #Mehya☀️ Benen omhoog, biertje erbij en geluid aan via: wp.me/p6xalX-gOE

The future is a web of branching paths, and each choice opens up new possibilities as it closes others. This is as true for a civilization as it is for an individual. The more our collective intelligence can inform each choice, the better our chances of finding paths through to a beautiful future.

I'm so glad our debut album is finally out!

Our debut album Nevermore will be out in just 7 days, on March the 21st. Don't miss out: pre-save it here on Spotify. show.co/vrE4U32 #metalsky #postmetal #doomsky #progressivemetal #instrumentalmetal #metal

I've got Abur by Pothamus (ritualistic sludge/postmetal) is in really heavy rotation. It probably will make my year end list with ease. What an overwhelming masterpiece. open.spotify.com/album/6iCx6Y... #metalsky #sludgesky #doomsky #sludgemetal #postmetal

Never would I ever believe that Insta would serve me a fitting ad, but then this music recommendation came along and I LOVE IT. Soothing synths, thumping beat, near-meditative vibes. Although, coming to think of it, that also describes Kiasmos ❤️ open.spotify.com/track/1eHV3b... #musicrecommendation

I can't get over how good Embodiment Of Death by Ter Ziele is. Their debut album CRUSHES. #doommetal #sludgemetal #metalsky #heavymetal #metal open.spotify.com/album/6G5BNY...

This upcoming wave of alternative online platforms is utterly interesting: Twitter vs Bluesky (vs Threads) Instagram vs Foto Whatsapp vs Signal What else is there? What is an alternative to Facebook for example? #socialmedia #alternativemedia

I think Heden is the best Amenra song ever. The production, songwriting, the building crescendo throughout the track, the suspense and the lyrics are so deep, overwhelming and layered. Astonishing. #metalsky #metal #musiciansky #Amenra #postmetal open.spotify.com/track/2qZwL6...

I am just so excited for @bsky.app. Being kinda new and an up-and-coming app means there are lots of people looking for their communities and interests here, which results in the most sincere and friendly internet communication I've seen so far! Love this place 🙏

Bell Witch - Mirror Reaper appreciation post. A modern classic. Endlessly beautiful, haunting and awesome. open.spotify.com/album/64BDVi... @bellwitchdoom.bsky.social #funeraldoommetal #doommetal #metal

You are strong, you are beautiful, you are loved… oh sorry, I was just talking to my coffee

We've just ordered the vinyl records of my band's album. They'll hit production next week. I can barely believe this is happening. As a vinyl collector and drummer, this is a life goal achieved and bucket list item crossed off. I can't wait for them to arrive.

Wow, Richie Martinez absolutely kills it... ...with incredible energy and so much fun! This guys makes me smile when he plays the drums :) Kudos for him to be in the Meinl family youtu.be/NDehmEg0yOQ?... #drumsky

My band @blossomandwither.bsky.social is releasing its second single Voices in two weeks. We're so excited for this! #postmetal #metalcore #progressivemetal #metalsky #musicsky

i reply to emails, but then more emails arrive? what is this horse shit
