Jean-Paul is a Dutch music producer whose sound blends melodic trance, ambient textures, and cinematic emotion. His music moves fluidly between power and reflection, driven by a deep sense of rhythm, space, and storytelling.
In his latest album In the Quiet, Jean-Paul turns inward. The album is an introspective journey into stillness, vulnerability, and inner dialogue. Central to this work is his use of poems from the past, drawn from classic and lesser-known poets. These texts are not used as ornament, but as anchors in time. By weaving historical poetry into contemporary electronic music, Jean-Paul creates a dialogue between then and now. The poems carry themes of loss, wonder, nature, and human fragility, subjects that remain unchanged across generations.
Jean-Paul uses these poems because they speak in a quieter, more enduring language. In a world of constant noise and instant expression, older poetry offers restraint, depth, and space for interpretation. In the Quiet invites the listener to slow down, to listen beyond the beat, and to rediscover how words written long ago can still resonate deeply in the present.
