Date of birth:

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

I just liked computers and robots & things like that, just like oteher
nomal kids, i guess..

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

First homecomputer i played with was my friends vic20, my first was c64 and
i did my very first composing with it, but never really found "the galway
button"..

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

I was very musical/rhytmical and i played piano.. not very talented in
coding (i still cant)

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

Protracker was the thing at that time. Also tried THX or what was that
(they made music in Turrican with this program)

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

Cant remember now.. One goal was when we mixed my music and played few
tunes in a rave...quite nice it was, jeeees...

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

Well, we once boozed with the guys and ended up making a rhythmical tune
consisting only of our bodily sounds... brrr...

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

Try to play without sound? Good music can sometimes save bad graphics..
sometimes even bad coding..

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

My amiga is preserved in the basement. Last time i made pro music it was
for Super Stardust. No music making for years now...

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

what? they work..?

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

Now i remember only Total Triple Trouble, twas funny one...

nnooo...welll...

NIN, Rammstein, Billy Idol, Nightwish, ZZtop, Garmarna,Väth, Adiemus,
Volgemut, Björk , random rave&ambient... i listen to big variety of music.

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

Lot of memories and know-how...
