Anything - Anytime - At Any Place - For Any Reason

About Me

Hello and thanks for stopping by!

I'm a drummer,composer living in Hamburg,Germany.
Most of the material,that you now have the "extraordinary pleasure" to listen to, is composed,played,programmed,edited by myself,
with the help of computers and some real guitar and el.bass played by some good friends.

During my active years as a drummer,I played many kinds of music:
JAZZ,FUNK,FUSION,RAGGAE,POP and ROCK.
The way I'm working now,gives me the freedom of composing
without any boundaries or restrictions.
"ANYTHING-ANYTIME-AT ANY PLACE-FOR ANY REASON"(F.Z.),
is a good expression of what I do since the "band-days".

I never studied music.I cannot really play keyboards.
I don't know about harmonics or notation.
Everything is self-taught.
Nevertheless the results are quite good,I think.
So,now it's your turn. Sit back-relax-listen and enjoy!

THANK YOU FOR KINDLY LISTENING!
