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

  • 1985


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

  • C-64 which is sold to my brother-in-law a couple of years ago, Amiga 500
    sold to someone I can´t remember, Amiga 2000 which I have as a footrest at
    my pc =)


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

  • Kind of slipped into it, I heard this "Front 242" cd called "Front by Front"
    and it made me test to do this kind of music myself


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

  • I guess it was Fasttracker that was the best one


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

  • Well, the first "sid-kind" of module was the one called "Introfronty", I played
    it to Stalker and suddenly it appeared in a lot of cracktros etc.. I never got
    to finish it =)


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

  • Oh.. can´t think of a module right now.. I guess all the old modules suck =)


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

  • It´s like a car without wheels...


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

  • No, haven´t composed in a couple of years, family, job etc. takes up all
    the free time nowadays


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

  • Midi sucks, has always done.. Mp3 is great


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

  • "One see why not", "Coffin express", and the tunes in the demo that Silver
    Productions made...


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

  • Well, haven´t thought never ever to do it, someday maybe for own pleasure


  • 12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

  • Rammstein, Nebula H, Funker Vogt, Hocico, Icon Of Coil and so on...


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

  • It was a great time that never ever will come back, I think it was awesome..
    It gave me a lot


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

  • Well, no


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

  • Ok, some greets go to Scan/Ringo Star/Stalker of Classic, WXK3 of Interface,
    Static of Rebels, Bloodsuckers, Sensei of TopSwap, and whoever I have met
    during the golden days... feel free to mail me =)
