About Me

My life is music and enjoying my time on earth. I work for DR as a radio host. After a number of years as the Head Of Music for DR P4, I am back at the mic full time. The new Head Of Music is my good friend Henrik Wacher and we still work together at P4 plugging sessions. DR P4 is a news/service/music channel for adults - 40+ and it is the most popular station in Denmark. The marketshare is close to 40%. The musicprofile is very varied. We play 50% danish music and don't follow any straight format. We are a public service broadcaster and I sometimes try to explain our format as beeing adult alternative/adult contemporary.I've been singing in bands since I was 16. I started up in heavy metal in Witchcross, drifted into "hair" metal in Harlot. In the late 80's I joined Led Zeppelin Jam; the name gives the genre away, right? A few years later I founded Savage Affair, a rockband with a popsound or vice versa. For a number of years I have been touring Denmark with Alex Nyborg Madsen trio. We are three best friends, three barstools, three vocalists and two acoustic guitarplayers. We joke and perform songs that we really like a lot and we don't care who wrote the songs. It can be ourselves, some superstar or somebody completely unknown. If we like the song, we'll play it.Besides this I am a family man and an avid supporter of the Danish soccerteam Brøndby IF.

My Interests

Music, family & friends, sexuality, soccer and a lot of other things.

I'd like to meet:

Good people.

Music:


My taste is extremely broad. Basicly I am into melody, whether it is camouflaged as hard rock, pop, soul, straight rock, hip hop or what have you. Statisticly I will listen more to rock in it's widest sense and to singer/songwriters. My friends list will give an idea of where I'm coming from.

Movies:

It's easier for me to say which kinds of movies I don't like. I hate splatter and most horrorfilms, not because they scare me, but because they insult my intelligence. Westerns, especially the ones where all white men are good and indians are bad I do not enjoy. Teenage-over-the-top-slapstick comedy annoys me. I like intelligent movies but if they get to arty, I lose interest. I also tend to avoid certain actors: Stallone, Van Damme, Seagal and anything related to the very annoying guys from Jackass.

Television:

Soccer, news, movies, good talkshows, documentaries and a lot of other things. I watch too much television I must admit.

Books:

I like a good read. It could be anything entertaining or educating. One of my all time favourites is George Orwell's 1984.

Heroes:

My heroes are the people aound me. And MadeByTim! :-)
