Interview
Why this name?
It crossed my mind when i did some research for the name.
Do you play live?
Not yet, Sphere-Sounds is only a studio project at the moment.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
There are no limits for your creativity. You can communicate with other musicians,
exchange files for compositions in easy and fast ways and you can provide your own music
very easily.
On the other hand, the music business undergoes an overflow with this improvement and
i think there's a lot of crap out there, which rules the business.
Many good and talented musicians aren't even getting heard because the mass market wants
stupid and brainless stuff.

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Depends on the contract and how much influence i will have in the end.
Your influences?
The first and biggest influence in my life was and is Michael Jackson!
He brought the music to my heart, body and soul and i felt it!
After pushing and developing my talent to dance and move for
over 10 years, the love for creating music itself came 12 years later,
with age 24.
Besides other musicians who are inspiring for me, many
things can be a influence. A movie, a actor, Salvator Dali,
a situation, words, a special mood, and the WEATHER *lol*
J.M. Jarre, Enigma, Bassic, Johannes Roussel, Faithless,
The Prodigy, Massive Attack, Infected Mushroom
J.S. Bach, Chopin, Eric Satie, Mozart,
Hans Zimmer, Patrick Doyle, Goldenthal,
