About Me

COUNTERPOINT'S BIOGRAPHY


COUNTERPOINT, AKA SHAUL HADAR was born on november 10th, 1981, in Kibbutz Mizra, ISRAEL. started playing the piano and learning musical theory at the age of 7. learned mostly classical music,especially music by CHOPIN and LISZT the great piano masters, and also learned jazz for three years. except for learning musical theory for 8 years, also learned the drums for three years. plays the guitar and a little bit of bass guitar....:)
Was part of a rock band at the age of 17 as the keyboard player with Vik Shefi AKA CYBER CARTEL / INTERGALACTIC,and also played as a keyboard player in the funk band GROOVE@RON. After the rock band had broken up, Shaul started writing electronical music in IMPULSE TRACKER,around 1999. afterwards he continued to investigate electronical music until sadly he had to go to the army, but during the army service, Shaul realised that his task in life was to write music and started working with cubase sx 3 ,now working on nuendo 3.
After finishing the army service, Shaul signed in AGITATO RECORDS, and started working on his COUNTERPOINT project. Shaul writes mainly trance music, but also a lot of chill out and experimental music,and also some rock songs. has had tracks released with BLISS (THE RYTHMUS GENE), INTERGALACTIC (NAVIGATION), AQUATICA (EMOTION), and OOTM (UNIVERSAL GROUND). is currently working on his trance project and perhaps on another secret project ;)
after playing a lot of chopin and classical music, counterpoint aims to blend the elements of melody with the full-on-trance music, and create new music atmospheres.
