About Me

made with the Cosmoedit Myspace Editor
Tamas Nemeth (Nemci) was born in Dunaujvaros/Hungary, 1978, on the 5th of December. At first, he began to learn playing the drums on the recommendation of one of his cousins, who had said he should, because it's a really cool thing. And so, he started learning in 1986, but after a years work, in 1987 his teacher had left, and mostly thanks to parental pushing, he began to learn playing the piano instead, which he did so for six years.He met up again with the love of drumming in his high school years, when he had found a drum set up in the dormitory of the school. He sat and tried figures he had heard on recordings. At the time his main influence in genre was metal. Nemci is convinced he had learned a great deal from those drummers.Shortly after his reunion with drumming, he had entered a blues band, from whom he had also learned a lot about music and the making of music. They had played at the Sziget Fesztival (Sziget Festival, Hungary). Though concert remains in his memory as one of the worst, he believes it had to happen. Thanks to it, he felt an urge to take further musical lessons.So, in 1999 he returned to his old music school to enroll for drumming lessons, and to his luck, that same year Tamas Berdisz one of the greatest Hungarian drummers had begun to teach there. His teacher lead him on to many important things, he himself would never had found out. The friendly lessons lead to hard work and practice at home, often, he spend his time practicing in the drum room of the music school rather than going to the technical college lessons, from where he had been expelled..After having worked at different jobs for about half a year, in 2004 he had been invited to teach at his old music school. As he needed a paper to do so, in the same year he enrolled himself to the Kobanyai Zenei Studio (Kobanya Music School) in Budapest, where his teacher became Janos Sramko; an other great artist. And so became his once hobby, his profession.Over the years he has played in many genres of music, from blues, rock to jazz. He has been lucky enough to have had played on the side of well known and great musicians such as Ferenc Muck, Grego, Gyula Horvath, Istvan Fekete, Gabor Winand.
