vädur

'vädur' is all about emotion.

when making this music, i always sit by the piano and let my mind drift off, to see what happens.

usually, this leads to a melody and chord progression that i can start building upon with the electric guitar,

one of my pocket operators or my drumpad.

with vädur i like to keep it simple, but i'm also aiming for that sweet spot where the topline is easy and memorable,

but you find intricate details in the arrangement underneath - some of which only become

apparent after hearing a track several times.

to illustrate my creative ambitions for each track, i make a music video to accompany it. i find it very expressive and rewarding to be able to use my creativity not only musically, but visually as well.

here is a selection of a few 'vädur' tracks for you to enjoy.

'cause you're still here

vädur - kyoto

a classic lofi style piano beat

after hearing "luv letter" by dj okawari back in 2010, i fell in love with emotional piano beats.

even if the tonal content is not very similar to that of okawari, i still wanted to capture the same heartfelt essence with this track

vädur - direction

a piece of music about finding your way in life, and using art as a means of doing so

we all feel lost sometimes. it lies in the nature of being human to not always know your way forward.

this track explores how one can use creativity and art to connect with one's soul

vädur - community

the first vädur track

when i wrote this piece of music, i did not know what vädur would become, stylistically. all i knew was that i wanted to combine my love for '90s boom bap hip hop and emotional piano music.
