About Me

30 years young fart who walks the Earth at the moment. I apologize for the delay in responding to your mails, feedbacks etc. The case is that I left my place in Germany and became a traveller to face my self. Whenever I should find an Internet oasis I will take care of OurSpace...I ll promise. You're more than welcome to join my travels, listen to more music and read some stories on WWW.UNCLEOLEK.DEUpdate: Since Sep 07 I have been living in Calcutta, learning the Sitar from my Gurujee Sugato Nag. Looking forward to recording some stuff, once my technique becomes acceptable.May these tunes leave you in a joyful, peaceful consciousness.LOVE Olek
