Early years (1990s)

I was lucky to experience the whole Nineties and the glorious rise of Techno! I have started making music on a 16-bit Commodore Amiga 500 in 1990. I used a MIDI programme called OctaMed and a few Breakbeat and Eurodance samples friends had sent me over on 3.5″ disks. Later I’ve got myself two Vestax turntables and a mixer. (A rather makeshift studio but you could already see the ambitions 😅)

I have finally switched from PC to Mac and replaced Cubase with Studio One from Presonus.

The future is now

Having set up a new studio I’m focussing on the production of oldschool Rave, House and Techno. That’s where I come from.
