Hi there,
I am a composer of soundtrack, new age and world music.
My music-style is based on my enthusiasm for world music and is of course a result of the different musical experiences I made during my life: learning electronic organ, playing in a folk rock band, synthesizer-experiments. Music is what all of us combines and is our universal language. I take sounds from different areas around the world (from Ireland to Japan and China) and combine them with more western instruments and rhythms. Sometimes you can find even elements of funk and jazz in my music. This synthesis allows me to transport my musical ideas and inspirations best.
Why this name?
Why OSAKA-SUNSET? Well, some years ago I spent some months in Osaka/Japan. The country, its people and culture impressed me very much
Do you play live?
During 10 years I was an active member of Bonny-Glee a great Irish-Scottish Folk-Rock Band. I usually played the keys, but now and then I played also congas and for a short time even celtic folk harp.
Today I do not play live anymore, I am focusing on composing my own pieces of music, which are produced with various synthesizers, a GuZheng and high quality VST instruments and of course a PC.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It gives everyone, who wants, the possibility to present his own music. And so we can listen to many great songs from musicians around the world.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
it depends...
Your influences?

Some of my favorrite bands and musicians are:
Clannad, Capercaillie, Andreas Vollenweider, Loreena McKennitt, Natacha Atlas, Kate Bush, Jethro Tull, Etta Scollo, Mike Oldfield, Deborah Henson-Conant, Khaled, Sting, Manfred Mann, Yo Yo Ma , John Williams, Incognito, Jamiroquai, Alan Stivell, Ceolbeg, Triskell, Davy Spillane, Herbie Hancock…
Favorite spot?
If I want to relax... I go to lough corrib, connemara Ireland in my thoughts...
Equipment used:
varíous synthesizers, GuZheng, many VST instruments, Cubase SX3 and a PC.
Anything else...?
Best regards, I hope you enjoy my music!
