‘Vind Je Niet’ is the latest single by the singer-songwriter Bert Van Puymbroeck. With a unique blend of Cabaret aesthetics and elements of electropop, ‘Vind Je Niet’ is a song that captivates its listener. The combination brings about an experience of theatrics, bold and explicit in nature. Such is the flow of the melody through which the artist shares an unnerving symphony, crafted in a way that the listener is drawn into the song. The artist has used subtle piano notes to slowly pave the way for the tender vocals to glide through. As soon as the electro beats kick in, the soundscape of the song widens, making way for the transient synths and various layers of sound effects.
Bert inspires a sense of dramatic flair in his music. The bellowing vocals with the shimmering atmosphere surround the song, almost encapsulating the melody in those waves of sound. Like an ocean at night, wild and endless yet deep and calm, the music explores themes of hope and love. There is a sensuality in the way the song is sung, as the tenor voice cuts through the soundscape like a knife on butter. The ambience it casts over the listener makes for an immersive experience, where one can feel the subtility and vulnerability of the artist. The contrasting beats guide the melody through, keeping the rhythm intact and the music flowing.
