In fact, it's quite strange to introduce myself as a
band, since this site will include tunes I'm making by myself in a tiny box called home. If additional musicians will join in some of the tracks, it will be informed of course.
So far I put here just couple of my tunes till I can afford a proper drum machine (or better PC-hardware.)
When that miracle happens I'm gonna produce some of my songs again, in hope that they will end up with better quality. (there's lots of material waiting to be done better, including stuff with hardware-based rhytm sections and bass lines played as real audio)

Why this name?
I checked local phone adress book, found my name and picked it up by coincidence.
Do you play live?
During few years there has been gigs without the band, just me, or sometimes as a duo (double-bass player or guitarist, usually.) I've lost the count long time ago.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
In a matter of this smalltimer project, not in any way. Maybe after year or two I'll get some concrete benefits (aka money) by using advantage that internet and compressed audio formats provides.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
If anyone ought to be stupid enough to pay, for example in my case, an album that includes music far away from the main stream range, you bet I would. :)
Band History:
I started guitar playing at the age of ten, but recording alone is quite new thing for me. This will occure in little amount of material, but things may change since I've got out of rather unsound habits. Bass, drums, harmonica and keyboards came later into the picture by spontaneous way. They are secondary instruments wich I'll play with occasional quality of skills.
Your influences?
Just to mention few: John Scofield, Pat Metheny, Tomatito, Luis Salinas, Jaco Pastorius, Larry Graham, Victor Wooten, Iiro Rantala, John Novello, Dennis Chambers, Vicente Amigo, Paco de Lucia, Aki Lääkkölä, Montse Cortes, etc.
Favorite spot?
