Blue Tribal
My name is Matej Su--nik and I am a musician:D. I was born on 13/6/1987. Music has been my companion since I remember, I grew up (am growing up:) in family where music has a big influence, so I had been marked with it since I was born. My career actualy started already in dipers. I started to sing almost before I could talk:) so I had few "gigs" in our church when I was realy a little boy. When I was 7 I startedt to atending music school. I played ACCORDION for 2 years, but I got tired of music school way of teaching so I stopped (luckily). Next Instrument I played was a GUITAR. My father and my sister thaught me few basic things about it and I begin to practice...it didn`t take much time I started to teach them:) I stared to play the BASS GUITAR (my primary instrument) when I was 13. I took lessons from BERNARD PAJK-one of the best slovenian bass players...soon I felt in love with this instrument. My father`s friend gave me bass called Godwin but soon after I got Yamaha BBN4...that was when I came in to a heavy metal band called METALSTEEL. We had our first real gig on School`s Out festival in Medvode on 29/6/2001. Since then everything went upstraight (with few excepsions:) Now we have over 60 concerts behind us. In our careere we have performed on festivals like METALCAMP, ROCK OTOCEC, METAL MANIA with bands like PRIMAL FEAR, APOCALYPTYCA, PAUL DI`ANNO, DANZIG, DESTRUCTION, HYPOCRYSI... and as oppening act for HELLOWEEN, W.A.S.P., DIVLJE JAGODE, 8. PUTNIK, POMARANCA, REQUIEM... We also recorded 3 videos for NOVI SVET, FOBIA and HEAVY METAL IS OUR RELIGION. I am dealing with music studios since my 13th year when I recorded a bass line for my friend. With METALSTEEL (www.myspace.com/metalsteel ; www.metalsteel.net) we already made two albums called USODA and TASTE THE SIN wich are very successful-they are also being sold in GERMANY and JAPAN, but before that we took part on 2 compilations called SLOVENIAN METAL vol. 1 and PLAY ROCK. Now I have a little music studio at home with my friend Beny (singer of Metalsteel) called Safe&Sound. Somewhere in the middle (I do not know exactly when) I also started to play DRUMS and KEYBOARDS...although bass guitar has always been "the one" :) ...It comes very handy because I have a part time job in music store called BigBang and so I get bored very hardly with all the instruments surrounding me. In the begining of 2007 I started to play with my other band called OBIDIL (www.obidil.com), whose second album will come out soon. We play Progressive rock. Now we are making music for next Metalsteel album. I am "tunning up" with Obidil and prepareing for live shows...can`t wait...especialy now that I bought my dream guitar G&L L2500:)PS: I am sorry for my english:)
