I'm Mats Paulsen, also known as Direiz when it comes to music. The realms of creating in my life are within music, drawing and writing. I’ve probably always been fascinated by sounds, and I love to play with them. In the early 90’s, I started using computers when creating music, and still am. Back then, I used classic Amiga computers and Protracker to create music. Oh, the joy! Today, I'm using another platform, but I do have a classic Amiga hooked up, and using it with Protracker as an electronic instrument. Love never fails, you know.

When creating, I just create. Genres has never been my strong side. I do what I like. My tunes can therefore be a bit different. Please feel free to listen and enjoy.

Hello! 
I'm mostly known for my OC ReMixes, but I also do a lot of chiptune &/or IDM hybrid stuff in Schism Tracker & Renoise Tracker. 

I also run the netlabel called Reunion since 2006, we've been on a lengthy hiatus, but rebooted the label in Sep 2019 with a sparse release schedule - It started out as a platform for me to get in contact with my old netlabel pals from the late 90s to early 00s (hence the name), as I had lost my internet access for a few years, but it turned into a pretty big project with 50+ artists from around the globe. 
I ran out of upload space on here, so I won't be posting as much anymore. Keep an eye on Reunion instead.

Feedback and comments are always welcome.
