About Me

Basically the six-stringed beauties are my life, most influenced by the guitar heroes from the late 80s and early 90s, a shredder at heart, but most at home in deathrock and punk. Still stuck in a boring daytime job I'd jump at the first opportunity to be able to live from just making music. Stuck in north Bavaria for different reasons makes life a bit boring, but nothing to do means more time to play guitar, haha.
I played the live guitar for All Gone Dead:
and guitar, keys, programming and (maybe) backing vocals in Hypocrisy Insane I started with Ivy Onyx:
Well, and of course some solo-stuff, most of it guitar only with backing tracks, trying to arrange classical music on the guitar in a metal style.
You can find me on festivals and parties all over Europe. As I said, I live in a shitty boring area, so I travel a lot to come out of that ;)

My Interests

Everything Music

I'd like to meet:

Dunno ... everyone who is somehow interesting and may qualify as a friend I guess. If I had to make a list of people, that would fill a book ...

Music:

i don't limit myself to genres. Mostly I listen to Deathrock, Punk, Gothic, Metal and Rock in general, but music is not about how you name it!
Show me a good classical piece, Pop or even HipHop and I will be happy to listen to it.

The only thing I really don't like is this overproduced shit that cloggs the charts most of the time nowadays. It's not about the music anymore, it's just about repeating a scheme that proofed more than once that it can produce money. I don't really mind it as background noise, but I can't really listen to it as it's just the same all the time, just the faces and the lyrics change ... a little bit.

Movies:

[no specific order]Cruel Intentions, Underworld, Fight Club, Nightmare before Christmas, V for Vendetta, Romeo is bleeding, Queen of the Damned, Lilo and Stich (no, really), Fast and Furious, xXx, Princess Mononoke, Fear and Loathin in Las Vegas, Corpse Bride, Requiem for a dream, Lord of War, Oi! Warning, The Machinist, Resident Evil, Snatch, Half Baked, The Big Lebowski, High Fidelity, A Beautiful Mind, 8mm, and so on and so on ...

Television:

nope

Books:

Patrick Süsskind (Das Parfüm), Terry Pratchett (most of his books), William Gibson (Cyperspace, The Neuromancer Trilogy), Neal Stephensons (Snow Crash, Diamond Age, ...), Arthur Golden (Momoirs of a Geisha), and many more
