Hi there! Thank you for clicking on this page! Allow me to introduce myself: I' ve been making music since I was eight or nine years old. At first I was playing the recorder and the flute on an educational level. I tried to cope with classical composer' s stuff like Mozart and Bach and I guess I learned quite a lot about music at that time but was really missing the fun part. That started to change when I was twelve or thirteen and got my first keyboard. It was a Yamaha MK-100, a weird combination of a preset- keyboard and synthesizer with built in speakers and a small selection of crappy waveforms that could be combined to get different sounds. About a year later I bought the famous Casio SK-1 Sampling Keyboard and had a lot of fun burping into its built in microphone (some of you might know what I' m talking about). Things became a little more serious when I got my first real synthesizer, a Kawai K1 ( Jan Hammer' s Miami Vice soundtrack was my first CD and a huge influence at that time). I quit playing the flute and and got myself a Yamaha RX-7 drum machine. When I was sixteen I went to America as an exchange student and spent one year in Marion, Wisconsin. When I came back to Germany my brother and I got together with two of his friends and formed a rock band. The band' s name was "Rescue On Friday". I was the lead singer and wrote the lyrics for the songs. We had a couple of gigs around the area of Hannover and did some demo- recordings but the band didn' t last any longer than three years. Electronic music had become increasingly interesting for me. I was blown away when I first listened to the Prodigy' s "Music For The Jilted Generation". I was looking for something new and when the band split up we had a little money left from the gigs we had played. In 1997 I bought myself a Yamaha QY700 Sequencer and a Roland MC-303 Groovebox and started to learn about MIDI recording. Later on I added an A3000 Sampler and I traded the MC-303 for a 505. Some other equipment has come and gone since then like a Korg Kaoss- Pad, an EMU ESI 4000 and a Yamaha SU 700. My current setup list includes:
Yamaha AW4416, NS-10M, Akai MPC 2500, APC20 for Ableton Live, Roland MC-909, XV-3080, VP-9000, EF-303, Korg EMX-1 SD, Kaossilator Pro, Kaoss Pad 2 and 3, Access Virus b, Waldorf Micro-Q lite, E-MU X-Board 61, Kenton Control Freak, Behringer Ultra-Dyne Pro 9024, Alesis 3630.
