King for a Day - Fool for a Lifetime

About Me


My name is bnek and I just turned 28 and I live in West End for bout one and a half years, yeah! (West End rulez). I'm photographin as a hobby, check out some of my work at flickr.
My favourite thing in life is music. I started listening to music when I was 4 or five years old. Since that I explored many kinds of music and I like them all. I started listening Beatles, Pink Floyd, Mike Oldfield, ABBA, and Classical Musik from my parents, Bought my first ACDC Tape when I was eleven. Than I mosty listened to Hard Rock and Metal (even some really bad german Metal :). In the meantime I started several Band projects with my neighbour Mari and we started to experiment with synthesizers as well. Later I got into electronic music. Since some of my friends were in the Gothic Scene at this time it got into Gothic / Industrial / Noise / Power Electronics. After I moved to Hamburg I met Yandro and Dan, who put me into Hip Hop and Reggae music. I also discovered Drum n Bass since there is a rich DnB scene in Hamburg City (cheers Hoch 10). Besides those 'seasonal' explorations I always liked listening to 80s music, classical music and Jazz (which I discovered at my guitar lessons when I was younger). Today I listen a lot to HipHop, DnB and some Chillout Music like Thievery Corporation, however this may change in the next month or so.
