Date of birth:

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

About 1984 my parents bought me my first computer which was a Commodore 64!

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

First was the Commodore 64, then an Amiga 500, followed by an Amiga 1200

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

I was a musician anyway so it was easy to get into. I did it just for the fun of it.

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

I started with SoundTracker, then moved to MED, which progressed to OctaMED, and now MED for Windows.

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

Donk!

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

There were a few that were absolute rubbish (most of them were).

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

You need good music to create the right atmosphere. It's essential.

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

After a few years not making any music, I've got back into it just because I enjoy it.

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

ok I suppose!

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

From the Amiga, I remember various demos such as Budbrain, Jesus on E's and lots of others that I can't remember the names of.

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

No, I don't think anyone would be interested.

12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

The Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Fatboy Slim, Gorillaz...

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

Lots of fun!

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

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

Hi to the guys from "The Hidden" where ever you are now ...
