Since 2014, Serge is the founder and chief in staff of Merchants Of Air, an underground music blog. He writes reviews, columns and articles about music and everything related. Shortly after the birth of Merchants Of Air he founded A Small Neat Journal, a random blog with more columns, lists and articles. A Small Neat Journal is currently a part of Merchants Of Air.
Throughout 2017 Serge has been working on his debut novel, titled 'Cecilia's World - A novel about alternative music'. In this book, he combines his experiences and knowledge of alternative music with a coming-of-age page turner. The book is now available in both physical and digital versions.

Music
Serge has been making music for ages, experimenting with ambient, noise and electronic dance music. Misantronics and Mint Narcosis are anagrams. Misantronics started as a harsh noise project in 2009 and gradually evolved into an ambient/drone/downtempo act. Mint Narcosis moves wildly in the world of electronic beats, synths and old fashioned music software. Once active under the monikers Angelmaker and DIAA, Mint Narcosis throws a bunch of techno, drum & bass, trip hop, industrial, hardcore and whatnot into the mix.
Then, of course, there is DJ Spullenhulp, another alter ego of Serge, currently mostly occupied with making mixtapes for Merchants Of Air. In earlier ages quite often active as a nameless DJ, Serge spinned some records in De Witte Non (Hasselt), Goths Go Gaga (Leuven) and De Rots (Antwerp). Rock, metal, breakbeats, folk, ambient, jazz, doom, post-rock, oldies... It doesn't matter, DJ Spullenhulp plays them all.

Just like with words and music, Serge likes to mess around with cameras and photo editing software. Some end up being album covers or shirt designs while others accompany gig reviews.
