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

  • Well, in the year of 1992 my friend told me about ZX-Spectrum and i
    bought one :)


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

  • ZX-Spectrum - i was not bad coder and graphics maker, A600 - just for
    play 'Cannon Fodder' :D and now i've got A1230.


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

  • Dunno, maybe just because i like music.


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

  • Protracker, AHX, Sonik Arranger, Octamed Soundstudio, Digi Booster - thats
    all. I think protracker is the best prog i've ever use.


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

  • I hope I still haven't composed my best module. Maybe in near future :)


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

  • Nop, i like all of my mods.


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

  • The same as the code and graphics i think.


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

  • Yep, just for fun.


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

  • Mpeg on 030? you gonna be kidding :D Anyway a like midi, and hope to try
    to composing anything in future


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

  • Well, i start to compose after i listen 'Knulla Kuk' by Moby. It's still
    one of my favorite tunes. Also: 'Beerbelly' by Chromag, 'Waypoint' by Dune
    (PC), '(70's)Alabi' by Nuke... oh it takes me too much time to tell ALL of
    my favourite tunes :( I also like Pink, Dizzy, Mr.Man, X-Ceed, Purple Motion,
    Jogeir, Virgill, Tim Follin (how can i forget?) and Jester.


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

  • Nop


  • 12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

  • I like Queen, Eagles, Jamiroquai, Kenny G, Joe Cocker, Splean, Alisa (the
    last two - russian bands) and some kind of jazz.


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

  • Just loadz'n'loadz of kewl spend time.


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

  • Hope so :)


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

  • I would like to greet all members of Universal and my friends on #amigarus
    and #amigascne. My respect to all active sceners. Keep the Amiga alive,
    mates!
