Started around 2000, using mainly ACID to make songs. Later I got more software and became more professional. Around 2003 I came up with a name for my project. This project is an outlet for my emotions, but also for music I like to listen to at the time.
Why this name?
I wrote a list of names that got my interest to use as a project name. Eventually this came out. It's not necessarily a name that pin-points me to a specific genre, but it has the characteristics of the music I make; electro, industrial, noise.
Do you play live?
No. Not yet. I'd like to when I have the right equipment.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It's good for unknown bands (without a label), to get the attention. It's also good to use as a guide to which albums you really want to buy.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Depends on what you call a major label. Most music that I listen to is mainly underground and you automatically end up with smaller labels. But the big labels in the underground; ant-zen and the like.
