About Me


Proud Member of the CyCorvallen Demogroup

Before doing electronic stuff I played classical piano, keyboard and jazzguitar. Other Instruments are bass, drums, berimbau, blues harp, xaphoon, alto and tenor saxophone, alto recorder, ukulele, melodica and some other ethnical instruments. After some business in jazz bands I decided to continue alone and make a solo project wich isn't bound to a genre. So it's pretty common that the songs range from straight chiptunes, over jazz improvisations to rock or metal.
Another big part is making music with trackers like Famitracker or Psycle.

Besides working in a library, I work in a music studio as an audio engineer and studio musician. And I'm also holding free lessons in instrument playing and music theory for everyone who's not able or willing to learn it at a school. Also I think music shouldn't cost money. It's a matter of passion and not a matter of business.
