Date of birth:

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

I think it was 1985 when my brother bought an C-64 for about 400$ =)
But my own Amiga 500 - I think it was 1990...

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

My first own one - Amiga 500 - Sold by Newspaper to get the brand new Amiga 1200
After some month and extension cards, external harddisk I opend my lovely BBS
"Love Like Blood", just one node, but 24h busy =) - After 8 month I bought an
Amiga 3000 to realize the 2nd node, but a few weeks later the cops busted my
BBS and took the Amigas with them. One year later I got them back and changed
the hardware to a 486/DX100 with tripple speed CD-Rom and the brand
new Windows 95. And now I even have a PC - but a little bit faster =)

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

my music was real crap!

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

Noisetracker/Fasttracker?

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

None

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

None either

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

It's very important! The sound makes the demo, what is a demo without sound?
Nothing!

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

no, just selling Hardware.

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

I think MP3 is a real fine thing. You can hear lots of music in your car with
only 1 CD and listend to cewl music when your cellular-phone rings...

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

I'd never one, sorry

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

For sure - NOT!

12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

I love Depeche Mode, U2 and similar like them

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

Many contacts all over the world, knowledge about computers, friends - the time
was great but will never come back...

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

Nope

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

All the best greets to all members of the Love Like Blood BBS and my swapping
contacts, particularly Curt Cool/Denmark, Felix/Norway, Sting/Germany (Moppel,
lass mal wieder zusammen trainieren!), Ghandy/Germany (lebt deine Ente noch?),
Exon, Meggs, Powl, the whole Savage Team, TRSI, Rebels, Alcatraz - thanx a lot!
