About Me


Well, when it comes to music, I listen to it all the time, and I enjoy a great variety of it. To me music is, as any forms of art, a kind of language that can be useful to express or understand something beyond plain words, to stretch thoughts and ideas etc.
When it comes to me making music, all I can say is that I write/make the occational song, and I enjoy that as well, but I am still searching for a true ’style’ or ’way of expression’ which fits me, or to put it in another way, which is close to the music I hear innside my head:) I suspect that most people making art wants to ’get out’ some ’words’ in that language, maybe finding the ONE song, the ONE sculpture etc. But getting that kind of music ’out’ is difficult for me, due to lack of practice, knowledge, time and the tendency I have to write boring popsongs:)
Anyways, some of my songs will be here for you to hear, I consider all of them to be raw sketches, so please take the time comment on them, I need input, ideas, criticism etc. When I'm not making music, I also enjoy making videos, sculptures and installations.
And while I’m searching for my language, I hope you're searching for yours:)
