Date of birth:

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

Well, difficult question. I can't remember the reason or the year.

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

Commodore 128D, Amiga 500. Still have it.

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

Before owning a computer I already played guitar, so the choice was easy.

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

Several trackers. The last was ProTracker. Don't know the version.

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

I think 'Ivory Tower', a co-production with Blackthorn was one of my best tunes.
It was released on the Aalborg party in some year (Ivory Tower/Jukebox).

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

Actually, I can't remember most of my tunes since I lost them ALL.

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

I remember the game Obliterator for Amiga. Though it was a bad game I played it
over and over just to hear the music again and again. This should answer your
question.

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

Yep. I'm still composing, but in a different manner. Now, I'm composing only
songs with lyrics, i.e. for someone who sings it. Some of them are available
as co-production with Virgill/Haujobb ("Free", "I will go", "Music").

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

What kind of question is this? There's no problem with today's music.

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

No. Forgot most of them.

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

No.

12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

WirSindHelden, Athlete, Norah Jones

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

A lot of fun, and it showed me a way for seriously working with a computer :-)

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

Not directly.

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

If anybody has old songs of me: Please send them to me. I lost them all!
