De Ware Jacob
- 2 million+ downloads
- Winner of the INMA Award for Best Use of Audio
For this true crime podcast I composed the intro and outro themes and parts of the underscore. In De Ware Jacob, DVHN reporter Jan Westera and podcast maker Colin Mooijman unravel the web of lies spun by Rob Jacob, perhaps the biggest and yet least known con man in the Netherlands. Who is this master swindler? Jan Westera goes looking for him. Interpol was looking for him. His victims are looking for him. But Rob Jacob seems to have vanished from the face of the earth.

Omroep Gelderland
Niet van de Wereld
I composed the complete soundtrack for this compelling podcast about the Dutch Bible Belt, created by journalist and podcast maker Maarten Dallinga. He spent months inside the world of orthodox Reformed Christians. What is it like to be strictly religious in a society that keeps drifting away from the church? Which tensions does that create, and how do people deal with them?
