Date of birth:

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

I don't remember which year it was but my interest for computer music
Started in the nineties. I started with the atari 2600.

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

Atari 2600, Amstrad Cpc 464, Atari 512 St, Amiga 500 and finally
the Amiga 1200 + Mtec 68030 + 8mo de ram!!!! :p
Nowadays I have a bit better config.

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

Simply because my brother is a drummer, he helped me a lot in understanding
what music is all about.

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

The only one: protracker!!

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

With none, it's actually my problem. I stopped composing modules
before I could become a star! :P

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

All of them! Get to listen my mods, my so called compositions are
nothing at all! :\

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

1/3 of the total result.. music is as important as the rest.

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

I am now composing for both purposes. Still doing some tracking for fun
and some for professional matter.

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

Life goes on..

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

I am not going to mention each mod names as it would be quite a list!
Still I can give some name of the gods in mods tracking: Audiomonster,
Maestro, Dizzy, Moby, Chrylian, Reflex, etc.. There are quite a few of
them!

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

Not! I would rather make audio cds out of what I am currently composing! :P

12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

The list would also be huge, it's fairly impossible for me to pick up
few of them!

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

Great interest for music in general... It also opened my mind to a wider
variety of styles.

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

Nope!

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

I would like to send hellos to each of the persons I was swapped with.
And with whom I have lost all contact.. peace!
