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

  • Back in 1986 or even earlier. My brother got a ZX Spectrum 48K that we
    played games on, made music with and made some programs on.


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

  • ZX Spectrum 48K, C64 (yeah!), Atari 1040STE, Amiga 1200, PC166MHz 64/3200Mb

    -Above------------------Games--------Music'Games-------------Music'Coding'Ga
    mes------------


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

  • I have tried to make both of them (Gfx and Coding) but. That was not where
    i found me making any good in a group so i got to make music proparly instead.


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

  • Protracker 3.15 on Amiga (Rules) and Fasttracker 2.08 on Pc (Suxx) ... With
    midi equipment Cubase 2.0 and Notator.


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

  • None so far. But if you wan't me to choose it is one i haven't released
    yet... =)


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

  • Err! Not that i can remember. (Or have i already forgotten wich one it
    was......)


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

  • Wery big! What would a movie be without music? Booring and nobody would
    like it... Add some music and you have a master piece. Ok. It might not be
    that easy but just to add music makes the thing a litle bit more intresting.


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

  • For the moment i am composing. For how long i don't know. Both profesional
    and leisure. Most for leisure.


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

  • I think it's a good way to get your music out to the ppl who ain't into the
    demoscene. Almost everybody can Download a Mp3. Not too many knows what a
    mod or an XM is.. =)


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

  • Urm. I belive that to be al of Jogiers tunes! He is a real beast at making
    calm music like Jean Michel Jarre and that is something i like. And
    perhapps cause i can't make that kind of music myself. =)


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

  • Don't know. I have been looking around but so far no contacts been made.


  • 12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

  • Al that count into good goa, jazz, acid, funk, hard hard rock (like
    metalica), + the rest of the styles except Swedish Dansbandsmusic and
    PopSchlager. =)


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

  • It has developed my skills in making music. It has tought me much about
    computers and last ... i have gotten many friends. =) Love the demo parties
    too....


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

  • Sure am! Just about to go to Icing in about three weeks. Going to release
    some mods/xms there...


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

  • To al that feel the need to be greeted and to al on Irc channels #Amigascne
    and #Amycoders.

    Aaaand .... don't forget to check my Hp for tunes! If you like GoaTrance be
    there. =)
