Music is the best!

I started creating musical compositions and soundscapes since more than twenty years. Me and my friend formed an electronic band in year 2000 called ‘digitalia’. I have great passion for music of all genres but generally listen to classical music like Bach, Webern, Stravinsky, Bartok, Messian, Frank, Hindemith, Debussy, Ravel, Boulez, Thomas Ades; some electroinc like - Vareze, Stokhausen, Karl Essl, Parmegianni, Aphex Twin, Amon Tobin; Jazz - Miles Davis, Monk, Chick Corea, Steve Coleman etc. I have to admit that Frank Zappa was my main influencer, as a contemporary and very versatile artist. The Mothers of Invention's humorous and audacious music is very entertaining. I personally consider Zappa as an embracer of 20th century music. 

I test new hard & soft instruments and play them interconnected. Most compositions on the profile are long sample-cuts from live performances. If you consider jazz as a liberation from the classical music doctrine, an improvisation as way to express presence and randomness of standards, then I woudl say that music I play is electronic jazz, but instead of standards there are presets. It is sort of a conversation music, a cooking pot with random ingredients. I perform in clubs, music halls, parties and galleries. I argue that music is the highest form of art, except possibly poetry.
