From an early age Roel kept himself busy with finding new sounds and creating music. As GOSTO he and his live band melt the worlds of acoustic and electronic music together into one dubby trip-hop sound; raw, dark but still colourful.
Inspired by traveling, chaos and love as well as artists such as Flying Lotus, James Blake, Thom Yorke and Jeff Buckley, GOSTO balances between fragile melodies and electronic extravaganza. In his song writing, he thrives to let you experience the thin line between simplicity and complexity. GOSTO takes you to places that you seem to recognize, but not yet have been before.
Roel’s band exists out of musicians how create a tight sound, despite of their totally different background. These four virtuosos have the ability play a ground shaking energetic but still very controlled live-show. Expect thrilling melodies, catchy vocals and deep, deep synths.
In June 2014, GOSTO released his debut EP (premiered on Noisey) and was amongst others support act for How to Dress Well.
GOSTO can be seen at several festivals and at different clubs.
GOSTO band:
Roel Vermeer: Vocals, synths & samples
Mats Voshol: Drums
Reindert Kragt: Bass & synthbass
Luc Schouten: Guitar

Turn of the light
gosto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
See it all the time
People that I want to know
Throw them a dime
Put myself at risk
Put myself in danger
When I get hung up,
hung up on a stranger
I fall in love, so easily in love
I fall in love, so easily, so easily
It never stops,
it never gets me high enough
I fall in love, so easily in love
Maybe I'm a faker
Maybe I'm the one
Hidden in the make up,
for when you come
I smile all the time
Looking like a clown
Look at all the faces,
Too many to count
I fall in love, so easily in love
I fall in love, so easily, so easily
It never stops,
it never gets me high enough
I fall in love, so easily in love
Step into the darkness,
queen of the night
Master of the drama,
turn out the light
I fall in love, so easily in love
I fall in love, so easily, so easily
It never stops,
it never gets me high enough
I fall in love, so easily in love
In "Turn of the Light", Gosto opens up about his tendency to fall in love with strangers and the danger that comes with it. He acknowledges that putting himself at risk by getting caught up with strangers could lead to heartbreak and other negative consequences. The song highlights his struggle to control his emotions and impulses, which often drive him towards love and affection.
The first verse of the song sets the stage for Gosto's dilemma - he often goes out alone and meets new people that fascinate him. However, he is aware that getting too involved too soon could be dangerous, and that he may be jeopardizing his safety. The chorus emphasizes the main theme of the song, where Gosto admits that he falls in love too easily and that it never seems to be enough for him. He seems to be searching for something that he can't quite put his finger on, which only makes the problem worse.
In the second verse, Gosto questions whether he is pretending to be someone he's not in order to attract the attention of others. He compares himself to a clown, hiding behind his makeup and putting on a happy face to mask his inner turmoil. The final lines of the verse suggest that he is overwhelmed by the sheer number of people that he encounters, and that he can't seem to find anyone that truly understands him. The song ends with Gosto embracing his persona as the "master of the drama," suggesting that he enjoys the chaos and unpredictability of falling in love with strangers.

Observing numerous personas beyond reckoning
Step into the darkness, queen of the night
Walking into the obscurity as the ruler of the night
Master of the drama, turn out the light
I am skilled in creating dramatic events, and thus I turn off the light
I fall in love, so easily in love
I have an inclination to fall instantly in love

Very different plot in this drama. Yeye is scandalous, no unsympathetic and cunning. The main lead couple are perfection together. The fragility of the girl brought out the protective side of her suitor. I think this is the first time I've seen a drama where the man sheds real tears. 10 out of 10.
@aldacavalcanti610
Ótimo drama. Amei
@judymoore5009
The grandfather’s character is absolutely horrible. The ending needs explanation as to what happened to allow the ML to marry the FL. Too simplistic. We need to see ML defy his grandfather no matter what he had to give up. They need me to be the director!!😂

Tanto tempo filme por qual motivo não finaliza bem. É ótima história!
Protagonista feminina começa intimidada vez cresceu sem proteção pais. E cai na mão família luta por poder. Nosso Protagonista masculino ficou muito contido por interesse no poder. Quis que a Protagonista fosse filha do rico liberou área para projeto do lindo Protagonista. Talvez aquele vovô capitalista com destino neto fosse mais suave. Fim muito ruim
, não foi justo com os Protagonista, pois eles foram muito lindos em seus personagens. Roteirista foram sem capacidade para finalizar. Deduzir é frustrante depois de quase 03 horas de filme.
