Experimental Sounds

Starlight
I was always interested in music and electronics. The first time i saw, heard and touched a real synthesizer i was speechless (with my mouth open). It was one of my life-changing experiences. Many years later, the "electronic" sound of the synth still remains my principal tool of expression, always feeling really good inside each time i play music on my favorite synths. Although i was playing/recording music for a long time, contributed to various electroacoustic academic research and multimedia projects, even worked as a sound designer and synth/MIDI consultant for a local music store/distributor, only lately (2010) i have got interested in showing my creations through the internet. My work and family keep me very busy, so my uploads will probably be few and far between, but please keep in touch. Most of my work could be labeled as "melodic electronic music" but sometimes i like to create soft/ambient/celtic/ethnic instrumentals as well.
Band/artist history
So many wasted years ...
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I like to record myself improvising "live" in my studio, but my style of music is not well suited to live stage show. It would be interesting to try it live, though ...
