Getting to Know The Netherlands Based Singer/Songwriter STEMIN (Full Interview)

Check out my conversation with singer/songwriter STEMIN.  We'll discuss his upbringing, living in multiple countries, his sexuality and much more.  Growing up in a family where music was always at the center in different forms, he was introduced to music through his parents who introduced him in studying piano and saxophone. The study of an instrument as well as being always surrounded by tapes, CDs, and the attendance of concerts and festivals increased his interest for music. STEMIN also spent a lot of time in church, singing in the choir and playing piano. This environment became the platform where his music interest for gospel, spirituals and black music was shaped. 

As he states: While growing up, music represented a hiding place, the place in which I could take shelter and find answers to my emotional side. What captured my attention in music was the sensibility of it and the way music connected to me personally and intimately.  I am a very sensible and emotional individual who has been exposed to some difficult experiences as a kid, therefore music represented for me that world to which I could run to, a hiding place; a world where emotions were associated to different colors; a world where acceptance and understanding was ruling; an imaginary world that helped me overcome these dark moments. I remember listening a lot to Donny Hathaway and finding a connection with him in the way his sensibility was being portrayed through the music.’
