Do you play live?
I don't play live.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Music medium is in transition, that' the first time music can circulate all over the world wich such facilities. Majors are loosing money, they have the impression to loose control, but remember that radio is free since always. When you buy music, you don't buy only sounds but concept, style of life and images. Back in the seventees there was a jacket with a vinyl record, someting to see, and something impossible to duplicate. Jackets's cd are to small to have visual impact. Maybe that's a part of a solution.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Maybe, but that's not my goal, I am not business man, I don't have career, I am just a musician.
Band History:
Since the age of seventeen I learned to manipulate sounds with a Space echo Roland, a Mutron bi-phase and several guitar effects on a four tracks Teak. My first synth was a Korg MS-10. I think the analog sequencer was the element who change the way of making music, the way to understand and execute music much than today's computer. That non-human character attracted me strongly. Before sequencer I made tape loops which was a completly different approach. Back in the seventees, sounds was new, every sounds was new. There was the impression that a complete univers was hide under synth's knobs. So I turned knobs again and again and I continue with pleasure.
Your influences?
My principals influences are ,Tangerine Dream,Mike Oldfield, Jethro Tull,Robert Fripp,Klaus Schulze,Larry Fast,Kraftwerk,Genesis,Moby,Rick Wakeman,Yes,Pink Floyd,Jean-Michel Jarre, and all the prog rock bands of the seventees.
Favorite spot?

I use of course analog synths: Roland JX-8-P with pg-800, Roland MKS-30 with pg-200, Roland Alpha juno-1, Yamaha tx81z, Korg M3R, Korg MS-2000,Yamaha A-3000,Yamaha TG-77,Alesis hr-16b,Alesis midiverb2,Mutron bi-phase,Fender Squier, boss pedals,Roland VS-840.
