Date of birth:

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

I had some friends who had C64 and one of them was going sell his to me, but
then I found out about the amiga500 and it was love at first sight. I think
this was back in 89.

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

I had, and still have an Amiga500 and a Amiga1200. In the begining I was
just playing games, but one day I discovered demos and NoiceTracker and from
that day I started to learn how to make music.

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

I have never been any good at drawing and math has never been one of my
stronger sides and I just loved NoiceTracker and the things you could do
with it.

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

I started with NoiceTracker and then moved on to ProTracker, which I
still use (not much anymore though) when I compose.

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

I don't think I have reached my goal yet, and probably never will. But I
think that the mod Sangria is the one that I'm most pleased with.

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

No, I like all my tunes. They might not be any good, but I still like them
as they're part of my history.

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

For me, the music is everything.

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

I try to. But just for fun.

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

I love it.

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

My alltime favourite tunes must be Dizzy's Banana split and Lizardking's
Elimination

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

No, that will never happen.

12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

I listen to everything, but right now I just listen to the nectarin radio.

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

It gave me the best years of my life and a lot of friends.

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

No, I retired in 97, but I try to stay in touch with what is going on through
a friend.

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

Well, then I would like to send some hellos to Louie, Lizardking, D-luxe, Note,
Nike, Cluster, Metal, Blaze, Savage, Dj Cat and Mr Real..How are you guys?

And I sure I forgot a lot of people..
