About me
As a musician I had a rather crap start, sucked badly at what I did and hardly ever made a descent (yeah, the game, not 'decent' as in half-good. Because Descent had some kicking music!) track. But I never gave up and KNEW I had some original ideas kicking in there somewhere.

A bunch of good friends told me my tracks were great before they were close to descent, but one special guy always told me when I sucked and why. Gotta love him for that. :)

Well, 11 years down the line I've spun many directions, some of which is represented here on traxinspace, old as new. I've struck a few lucky notes during the past years, made some tracks that actually got a few tracks that found a few fans that wanted more of that or that style, but mostly I've disappointed them all by going in a totally different direction. The one represented on the myspace is most likely where I'm going now, but who knows. Only time will tell, I've always stayed true to myself no matter what.

My software-evolution is as follows:
1996-2000: Fast Tracker 2
1999-1999: Fruity Loops/Jeskola Buzz/Mad Tracker 2
2000-2001: Psycle
2001 - present and on and on: RENOISE! :D
+ Kristal, Audacity, Sampletank etc.

Favorite music editor
Renoise

Favorite musicians
Dj ZiD, Jean Michel Jarre, Surgeon, Xerxes and more.

Musical inspiration
Dj ZiD, Biosphere, Benifit Of The Boomerang, random noise and that clingy sound of any industrial workplace.

Advice to other musicians
Just do whatever you want ask those who say your music sucks WHY they think it sucks. Don't fall for unreasonable praise either, just because your mom thinks you should get a record contract it doesn't mean you still have a million things to learn. But most of all, love what you do and do what you love.

Notes about my music
Erratic, hard to get a grasp on, flowing and soundscapey no matter if it's hard or soft. Mostly not melodydriven. Although, I occationally churn out a melodic little dinky here and there. People like that. ;)

A great track only let down by some odd panning in the bass bit and a below average mix. Oh, and rather lofi samples.		Read full review

The only good thing I can say about this track is that it has some rocking drums at 0:33. It features a penetrating, repetetive melody drilling itself into my skull, yet I was unable to remember how it went after listening to it 3 times in a row. And then my head hurt. You should add growling vocals		Read full review

A catchy track with nice melodies, a good twostep beat and great (although not originally made) vocals that reminisce of Peter Gabriel. I like it, despite it needs some work in its transitions, fx and instrumental variation but I recommend a listen to anyone who like soulful vocals and sweet twostep		Read full review

I really liked the whole 'feel' of this track, not by any means breaking new ground within the Trance-genre, but certainly more in the footsteps of futurepop-bands like Apoptygma Berzerk than conventional tracne. Sorry, trance. ;) I'm thinking it could need some vocals to spiffen it all up.		Read full review
