About me
I'm just another IT techie that likes to make music. Sometimes I make strange stuffs, sometimes it's mellow crap, usually it makes people go "WTF?" which is a good thing in my book.

I sometimes make songs for games, I contributed the score for the game Clean Asia! which won some minor compos and such and that got into the finals for the independent games festival, sadly it got pwned by audiosurf :(

But, usually I'm up for writing soundtracks, if the project is interesting enough that is and would fit my stuff. And so far only Cactus has made any kind of game that even remotely fits what I make in terms of music, so obviously I work closely with him whenever possible.

Regarding the Ripper controversy: Roncli has made a solid effort to gather evidence and claims that he didn't find anything, furthermore he's gone public and told everybody that he doesn't think Louigi Verona is a ripper, which means that I've decided to reinstate my profile again.

Favorite musicians
Take a look at my friends list, there they are :) (well, quite a bundle of them anyway)

Musical inspiration
Life and all the lovely trials and rewards it gives me. Also, annoyances are a big inspiration sometimes too.

Advice to other musicians
Never give up on music, because music will always be there for you, no matter what life throws at you.

Notes about my music
It's experimental, mellow, hard, filled with emotion, cold, distant, intimate, hateful, loving, sarcastic, stupid but most of all. it's MY music.

Synergy of Life and Death
Reviewed: July 18, 2007
Artist: Bakemono
This song has roots in the old 90's hardcore rave scene. However, that genre is merely the embryo of what this song is in terms of genre. It's basically an extremely melodical variant of hardcore trance. Which of course means that it has pieces of trance, hardcore, newstyle and orchestral melodies

Mission Orion
Reviewed: July 16, 2007
Artist: Xetrov
This is a fairly normal and standard trance track which features all that a trance track should have. Yet aside from that, it doesn't really have anything tangible that creates an interest in the song in question, so the end result is a song that feels very generic in nature.

A Bridged Divide

Artist: slammy
This is an epic song with many themes included into a single long stretch of a song, which is both a blessing and a curse sort of. It's not something you throw on at a party to be honest, however it IS one of those songs that you'll probably throw on your playlist in about ten years and STILL like

Lost in Vagoo

Artist: Gazus Snake
A pretty interesting and variated piece of atmospherical drum and bass which has some minor flaws that prevent it from being perfect. But, it's damned close!

Alot of Cowboy fans here (The Anti-Bush tribute)
Reviewed: June 28, 2007
Artist: Wiseman
This is a definite antribute to mr Bush. And even thought the message is clear, the track doesn't really reach the heights it has the potential to reach. It begins well with a few good leads and a nice bassline which is integrated into the drums suitably. However, the problem lies in that it's al
