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. ;)

Entranced (or what happens when I try to do trance)
Reviewed: October 07, 2007

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

This track is god damned brilliant!!! Very good work on the arrangement this time around, the beginning may put off some people, but stick with it. Trust me. It pumps like a frantic heartbeat when that bassline kicks inn, stings like a RAZOR when the "lead" kicks in, which really kinda hurts, only i		Read full review

This is a disturbing soundscape in itself, it has good potential but lacks layers to fully function on its own.		Read full review

For its usage, this track delivers very well but have a couple of flaws that needs attention before reaching its intended audience.		Read full review

A very nice OHC, that's for sure! It'd be my top vote in any count. :) Also, a top notch IT, very much like what you are able to do with that old tracker. Kudos! Judging it as more than an Impulse Tracker-piece I'd have to say that the beat lacks musicality, if the bassline worked more with it		Read full review
