Old school synthesist Michael Kastrup, drops in here from time to time.Band/artist history
Been working as a studio musician for 15 years and used for programming, arranging and producing. I started as a programmer on atari Pro 16 & Pro 24 system and introducing studios to music on computers. From then on it was music in alt its flavours for artists, television, radio, theatre and art.
After a long period of time i came to the conclusion that music making was utterly boring and the only reason i kept at it was for the money and not the music it self. I could have started something solo at that point but i was drained and couldnt think creative anymore. Every note i lay down was with a $ in mind. So i simply had to break away from music.
It took about 7 years before i turned on a computer with music making in mind. Did a few years research on music software and feel GOOD TO GO again. This music round is going to be about me, my inner thoughts without the $ filter ;)
Fasten your seatbelts, it may be a bumpy ride...Your musical influences
Alan Parsons Project (1976-1982), Jean Michel Jarre (1976-1978)Anything else?
I run a Sound Design Site named www.xsynth.com where i have some free VST and Refill downloads.

Thx TRUE 1
Your right about the hip-hop thing, didnt expect that ;) and what i really didnt expect was the thing about raw harmony and ((some)) healing power. Guess we are not that different after all but just walking earth in different shoes ;)
Nice of you to drop by...
I might knock on Mo Shangs door someday :)
/Michael
Im probably going to be the only hip-hop producer on soundclick thats going to post here........
First of all you have some very nice music. The way it moves is pretty neat. You and mo shang are doing things pretty well. Maybe in the future you guys can combine and do an online collaboration song..Well I know what you're thinking..What's a hip-hop head doing posting on my message board?
Well as Mo-Shang can tell you.;I beleive in melodic music..no matter the genre.I get inspiration from music such as yourself and mo-shang. This type of music and other instrumental genre's are the backbones of all music. Thats why I like it so much..It's nothing but raw ..natural..sounding harmony that was created in the begginning of earth to go together.I beleive that music has some ((some)) form of healing power. Well anyway nice tracks.
WAZZUP MO-SHANG (no offense)
PEACE
