  • 1-How did your interest for computers start? Which year was that?

  • Playing Giana Sisters on a friends C=64 in the end of 1988


  • 2-What machines did you previously have? What did you do with them?

  • C=64 II - Playing games; later even watching demos and set up some basic
    code :))

    Amiga - watching great demos, composing (protracker), mailboxing
    etc.. what great time!

    PC - better don't ask!


  • 3-For what specific reason did you end up making music rather than gfx, coding?

  • I'm to stupid to code and to lazy to pixel


  • 4-Which composing programs have you been using? Which one in particular?

  • Protracker on Amiga ... I think it was Protracker v2.3a (AFAIK)


  • 5-With which module did you feel you had reached your goal?

  • "Sudden Dream" - noisy crap which got in some way wellknown.. :))


  • 6-Is there a tune you would like not to remember? For what reason?

  • Most of my tunes where not good.. anyway.. I don't care


  • 7-In your opinion, what's the value of a music in a demo, game?

  • It has the same value as code and gfx... together they should produce a great
    atmosphere


  • 8-At present, are you still composing? For professional or leisure purposes?

  • no


  • 9-What do you think of today's pieces of music such as mpeg,wave,midi,etc...?

  • great stuff at all - demo scene rules them all *g


  • 10-Could you tell us some of your all times favourite tunes?

  • there are some great tunes by Jester/Sanity, Virgill/Haujobb etc.. couldn't
    name them all!


  • 11-Are you planning to make an audio cd with some of your music remastered?

  • no


  • 12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

  • none special.. top 10... and some goa stuff + nightwisch.. so, none in
    particular


  • 13-What does/did the amiga/c64 scene give you?

  • funny and cute people, GREAT parties (MekkaSymposium & The Party.. several
    times)


  • 14-Are you still active in the scene these days?

  • not really - but I visit MekkaSymposium every year - scene rules! ;)


  • 15-Anyone to greet? Anything left to say? Feel free...

  • hm.. going to work now - freetings to all who remember and know me.. cu!
