Cloudmachine is an eclectic indie rock band hailing from the Netherlands, founded by songwriter and composer Ruud Houweling (Alphen aan den Rijn, July 29, 1968) who fronts the band, singing and playing guitar.〔''Dutch Wikipedia'' Ruud Houweling〕 Other band members are: Marco Kuypers (keyboards), Mike Coolen (drums), Richard Lagerweij (guitars) and Ray Edgar Duyns (bass). The style of music can be described as atmospheric with a melancholic undertone. The songs are always constructed with 'real' instruments, part acoustic. Vintage keyboards (hammond, piano, wurlitzer, mellotron, pump organ), various types of guitars, sometimes accordion. Arrangements often incorporate additional string players or a brass section. To date, the band has released four albums, receiving critical acclaim in the Netherlands and Belgium.〔(''Official website'' Cloudmachine )〕
==History==
Houweling started off his music career in the early nineties signed to Columbia Records as Biscuit, releasing two singles.〔(''Netherlands National Music Encyclopedia'' Cloudmachine ) (Dutch)〕 Disappointed in the workings of the Dutch music industry, he found ways to make the records he wants to make with Cloudmachine by using his song writing and composing skills working on other projects, investing the money he thus makes in album productions. Songs were recorded for or by e.g. Kinderen voor Kinderen (reaching #21 in the Dutch Top 40), Tarja Turunen (The song My Little Phoenix on the album ''My Winter Storm'' that won awards in Finland (platinum), Russia (double platinum), Germany (gold) and the Czech Republic (gold) selling more than 500.000 copies), for Efteling, and Ricky Koole.〔(''Dutch Charts'' position Kinderen Voor Kinderen 24 )〕〔(''Netherlands National Music Encyclopedia'' Ruud Houweling, credits (Discogafie) )〕〔(''Gold & Platinum Awards database'' German recording industry )〕 He wrote and produced music for various national television series for Dutch public-service broadcasters such as VPRO, AVRO and Omroep NTR all part of Netherlands Public Broadcasting.〔(''Official website'' De Gouden Eeuw, tv series credits ) (Dutch)〕〔(''Netherlands National TV & Film Encyclopedia'' The New York Connection, tv series credits ) (Dutch)〕〔(''53rd Grammy Entry list'' Page 4 #78 )〕 He also collaborated with Arjen Anthony Lucassen on ''The Final Experiment'' and Ruud Jolie on ''For All We Know''.〔(''Official website'' Arjen Anthony Lucassen, collaboration )〕〔(''Official website'' For All We Know, collaboration )〕
