Yves Berendse’s hit ‘Terug in de tijd’ is a significant success in the Dutch ‘levenslied’ genre, topping charts for weeks. This resurgence is part of a broader trend of increasing popularity for Dutch music, with artists like Robert van Hemert and Django Wagner also gaining recognition. Streaming service Spotify notes a 7% rise in local music consumption. Experts suggest this genre is connecting with today’s audiences, aided by a quality shift in production and greater radio play, marking a notable comeback since its heyday in the 1990s.
