Date of birth:

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

the year was 1994.. how : my dad has been into it forever , so i kinda
grew up with lots of computers around me

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

1.zx82
2.msx
3.ibm x86 , dunno exactly
...
286 -> pentiums II , have had them all...

what i did with them : playing games , coding my own really simple games ,
about anything i could think of at that moment, ohyeah i remeber we build
our own kinda off joyticks for the msx

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

music in in my family

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

creator -> st3 -> ft2

ft2 the most i think, it's just the best there is

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

none really, it was mostly experimenting what i did, i was quite young when i
started tracking , but my musical taste changed a lot over these years, so
tried a lot , but nothing really good if i look back now...

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

plenty :) reason : i was just to young , sampled stupid text from tv to make
it funny, but turns out to be really stupid now ... ohwell , gotta start
somewhere

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

think it's one of the most important things, music adds a whole new dimension
to everything you look at..

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

sometimes , not really composing , just experimenting with music...

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

!? strange question
but well mp3 : cool !!! easier to get to know new/unfamous artists... cheap :)
wave : samples :)
midi : niec to compose with for external synths, but not for real downloading
of music.. mods (and everything in the same line...) : COOL, most underrated
musical format, there are so many really good trackers out there who will
probally never grow bigger than the scene, tho for some this is a choice

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

i assume this is scene realted :
-plauze (artist): love the hardcore acid he made
-keith330 (artist)
-maelcum - still love his remix of 'the box' of
orbital
-too many :)

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

been thinking of it, prolly never to be realised

12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

pfff, dunno , from metal to hardhouse from ambient to ac/dc everything :)

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

never been into amiga/c64 but i guess it was the beginning of it all...

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

not in the music scene anymore , but still very active in other scene (divx)

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

everyone i ever met on the internet , (bbs , years ago..)
