Date of birth:

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

When my father bring home his fisrt computer, running pac-man. I was so amazed
by this game. it was 1980 or 81

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

PC8080: just play some few games
then AppleII: play more games... and started to code in basic

Vic20: games, some code

C64: games, code and find a music prg, started to write music, with this
graphic score writing... very bad prg :p

Amiga: demo, music

PC: work

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

I learn classical piano... then follow some modern music using synthesiser,
but I also code...

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

Started with Soundtracker, was hard like hell no way to save a full song...
Noistracker very nice program. Protracker the best one :p

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

Never :p

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

Well... No!

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

Same as gfx. It is a very important part to immerge the audience fully in an
interactive environement... ...just imagine to look at a movie without sound...

Not really, I code audio aplication for console video game.

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

Boring... I love trackers full of effect

Mmmh hard question.... Maybe Arkanoid or Delta song

No!

12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

Prodigy, chemical brothers... and mainly classical music

A lot of fun, we won the assembly in 91 and we have a lot of interview in
magazine, proposition for making video games.

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

No!

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

To all my friends, and Hornet (RIP).
