I started loving music pretty early, played piano as a child so I learned notes etc.
Ive been making different kinds of music since 2000 give or take, but since 2003-4 ive been concentrating my music on beats for rappers. Some Instrumentals and mixes aswell.

Why this name?
Ive been called Floppy, and chose Flop, and I create beats so it became Flopbeats.. pretty simple
Do you play live?
I dont like to preform much or be in the spotlight. Im not a showbuisness kind of guy.
Ive only had two shows in my life and I didnt like it very much , but maybe ill change my mind later.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Its great, many of us cant afford to buy much but food and pay the most important bills.
And music shouldnt be about money... etc etc.. But if Ive got the money, i support my favourite artists.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
That depends if I could do what I like to do and not change too much.
I dont really do this for anything but love.
Band History:
I started with music and listened to all kinds of weird stuff since I was a little kid which my parents had, I played piano for a few years , and then I started using old computers to compose very simple music, later i got more interessted and Ive been trough alot of genrees since then.

Dont give music up! Even though it seems dead and there`s always a chance to revive it with a musical ressurection spell.
