Date of birth:

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

My parents bought me a C64 in 1989 or 1990 I *think*. I played a lot. Later
they bought me a PC and even later I bought myself an Amiga.

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

Played a lot.

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

In my opinion coding is rather boring. I have been doing some gfx every now
and then but not much. Even did one compopic! Finished last in the compo, if I
remember right, hehehe.

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

Scream Tracker 3, Fast Tracker 2, Pro Tracker 2.3, Pro Tracker 4(?).
Fast Tracker 2 in particular cause it simply rules.

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

None. Newer stuff is of course better than older. Hopefully I will someday
make some "real music" that'll reach that special goal.

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

All of the stuff I did in 1994 :D

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

No idea (too lazy to answer ;)

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

Yep, every now and then but really, really rarely. The last "real" mod I
finished was two years ago. I will probably release some MP3-stuff in the
future under the name Superslacker. Or then, mayhaps not. Who knows.

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

MP3 is good for you.

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

I could name some favourite mods.. Hmm..

"Trans Atlantic" by Lizardking.
"Suuntaviivat" by Dizzy.
"Palle's Theme" by Jester.
"My Stylers" by Scorpik.

basicly everything by Yolk & Dune.

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

Don't think so.

12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

Well, yesterday I was listening to Ceebrolistics, Bob Marley, Cream, The Beatles and so on. I listen to a lot of stuff. From jazz to idm and from hiphop to waltz..

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

I'm really more of a pc-scener. Amiga/c64 scene gave me a lot of good friends.

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

Kinda, yes, but I'm getting lazier.

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

Wuuhaa! Well, hmm, greets to Beathawk, El Higu, Pekka, Tempest, Unreal, Piglet,
Whisker, Sombie, Drone, Droid, Adam, Shape, Kure, Deeq, Speedo, THG, Damaq &
the rest of DSD, Aleks, TDA, Duncan, Shine, Leia, all in #pixel, #amigascne,
#suomiscene, All in Haujobb, Damage, RNO, etc. I'm forgetting loads of people..
Kisses to Mindflow/Triad! :)
