About Me

My name is Stein Tore Sønsteli, I´m from Lillehammer, Norway. My main job is at Lillehammer University College, where I work as a web developer, focusing on solutions for distance learning. I also do some audio/video-related stuff there.My other job, wich will be the focus for this myspace page, is running Vinterland Studio , a recording studio focusing primarly on production, composing and mixing, and performing as a keyboard player with various band. I´m currently playing keyboards and MD´ing for Anne Nørdsti, one of the top artist in her genre here in Norway. I´ll post the tour list soon - if you are nearby, feel free to come and say hi!I consider myself lucky to have been able to play with a lot of great musicians and artist here in Norway. I love to perform! My main musical goal in life is to be able to take my B3, Rhodes88 MK-I and Moog Voyager to every gig I play ;-).I´m also writing music for TV and Film productions, mostly documentaries and short films. My latests scoring project was composing music and FX for a 1-hour TV documentary on the King Crab. The documentary has aired on national TV here in Norway, Germany and China.Feel free to comment the blog!
