We Deserve This is a one man project formed in the year 2010 by Jan-Dirk Platek.

After years of discovering the electronic music genre We Deserve This is back with a heavy post-rock EP: “I’m Sorry But I Shouldn’t“. We Deserve This mastermind Jan-Dirk Platek composed 4 brand new tracks that are all very melodic and powerful at the same time.Here you can find massive riffs combined with ambient textures and heavy drumming. The songs are all not very long so they somehow feel like instrumental rock hit singles.

The songs were all composed and recorded in April 2021 – after long lockdowns during the Covid-19 pandemic. You can feel the energy and sadness of these strange times.

The music can find itself a place in the post-rock, post-metal area in the genres palette. He was born in 1976 in Germany and he is a multi-instrumentalist who plays all the instruments on the record.

He thinks that the biggest influence on his musical journey was his grandfather. The grandfather was a music teacher and helped him to learn to play various instruments pretty fast. Also he works as a sound and light technician in a theatre in Germany. He says that this playing with sounds and lights has helped him to look at the things in different angles which also influences the way he makes music.
