Lodewijk Fluttert (born 8 October 1991), known by the stage name of Bakermat, is a Dutch musical artist and record producer from the village of Markelo in Overijssel.[1] His music is a mix of electronic, deep and tropical house, techno music produced in a minimalist manner with jazz and soul influences.

Career

2012–2013: Vandaag

Fluttert started his musical career while studying psychology at Utrecht University and moonlighting as a DJ in his spare time. He released his two EP's in 2012 called Zomer EP and Vandaag EP. The title track from the latter, consisting of an integrated sample of the "I Have a Dream" speech by Martin Luther King, Jr.,[2] charted as a single in the Netherlands,[3] Belgium[4][5] and France[4] in late 2012 and spring 2013. In 2014 it was re-released by Sony becoming a major charting hit particularly in Germany and Austria. In December 2014, Bakermat received a platinum record for his single Vandaag in Germany. His 'Uitzicht' EP was released in 2013 on Soundplate Records. It has appeared in several iTunes charts including top 50 positions in the overall chart in Belgium and the Netherlands.[6] Other popular tunes include "Black Cat John Brown", "Leven", "Strandfeest" and "Intro". He has also released a number of mixtapes on his Soundcloud account.

2014 - present: Debut album

In 2014 Bakermat confirmed that he was going to perform at 2014 edition of Tomorrowland. After the summer he made an official remix for Labrinth's single Jealous. On November 24 Bakermat released the single Teach Me on the Dirty Soul Music division of Be Yourself Music. Teach Me was inspired by Gospel, Soul, Blues and Jazz influences in combination with samples of the American Gospel-singer Shirley Caesar. In December Bakermat announced his first tour in North America, 'The Another Man Tour'.

Following his first single Teach Me, Bakermat will be releasing his debut album in early 2016.
