On February 8th 2007, after roughly three years of playing this music with these musicians in various settings, Willem headed back to the recording studio to record his much anticipated third album. Featuring renowned saxophonist Abraham Burton, internationally acclaimed bassist Kiyoshi Kitagawa and legendary drummer Victor Lewis. Each song of the all original set tailored for these respected musicians. Far from a thrown together project, this band had been trying to schedule this recording for too long. With 10 songs recorded in one day, everything was done after two takes. We hope you enjoy it. Turn it up.

Beezwax Records:
You can have your copy of Balance personialized from Beezwax Records.

Since October of 1997, Beezwax Records has been quietly and slowly building a reputation for remarkable quality in jazz, brass and blues: a level of quality that reflects both the quirky philosophy and extraordinary musical
ear of label founder David Seyboldt, who imagined a record label that
wouldn't let the quest for growth hamper the groove. To that end, Beezwax was born with a peculiar, built-in safeguard against that kind of success: each and every Beezwax CD is hand-assembled and hand-stamped with a serial number and the owner's name.

While this does allow Beezwax to maintain a very complete database of
customers, it also serves a larger purpose: to remind both the label and
the listener that the most important part of the equation is the music on the disc. Call it crazy or call it brilliant, the Beezwax Records approach ensures that everyone who is touched by the music knows they are listening to a work of art, made in the traditional manner, just as the label's slogan says; "One Of A Kind, One At A Time."
