About Me

Niskala has been making music since about 1995, but started into DnB in 2003. It all started with the guitar (and a lot of free time). Playing the guitar really developed Niskala's thirst for creating music and prompted him to learn to play more instruments. But soon Niskala realized that he wanted to create music more than learn to play every instrument there is. So, in the late 90's he got into computer music production and began using it to compose Classical style music.
Then came graduate school, which meant no free time for music production. But, then in 2002 Niskala heard the Metalheadz release 'Platinum Breakz' and everything changed. Being familiar with using a computer to arrange music, Niskala began trying to figure out how they were making that awesome DnB sound. Soon he dropped all other music in favor of DnB. Then in 2003 (when he finished school) he was ready to pursue DnB production seriously and has spent countless hours in the studio ever since.
