Summary

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with NYC-based, Dutch-born Artist, Vocalist, Composer & Producer Vivienne Aerts . We get into her latest 2026 album Current and the remarkable creative journey behind this innovative project. In the summer of 2025, Vivienne set sail across the Dutch waterways aboard a 1951 mahogany sailboat , transforming the tiny vessel into a floating recording studio over the course of two weeks. Along the way, she recorded new songs and soundscapes that blur the boundaries between jazz, improvisation, electronic music, environmental art, and experimental sound . It's an artistic process that perfectly reflects Vivienne's creative spirit—curious, adventurous, immersive, and deeply connected to place and experience. Her work reaches far beyond traditional jazz. She explores electronics, multi-sensory experience design, chocolate, sound, improvisation, and creative technology , while also bringing her background as a clinical psychologist and her work as faculty at Berklee College of Music into her creative life. In this conversation, we explore Current , the floating studio experience, Dutch waterways, jazz improvisation, electronic music, environmental sound, sensory experiences, psychology, creativity, and the many worlds Vivienne Aerts brings together through her art. This is a fascinating story about breaking creative boundaries and finding music in unexpected places . It's quite a story. Enjoy this interview.
