Im composing and performing multi-instrumental.
Over the time I accomplished equipment for a small studio in Hamburg, Germany.
I used to play in live bands on different instruments,
basically drums, percussion, guitar and flute
and I wrote the songs.
Today I prefer to work on solo projects
and the digital age enables me to apply instruments from computer.
The challenge producing digital to me is
to find the expressions of the instruments as I would play them live.
To produce without having the instruments starched and inflexible.
Im trying to create the instruments in a vital way
although assisted with computer and sequencer.
All publications are produced independent

Bio :
I was born in Mannheim, Germany
and I became fascinated by sounds and instruments very early.
The first instruments I came in touch with
was flute, percussion and guitar.
On a highscool for children I became educated in music theorie
and learned notes and harmonies.
It was hard to follow without holding an instrument in hands
and except some basics all and everything
is wiped out of my mind.
Later I learned some basics on piano,guitar and drums
and from then on I was learning by doing
and became an autodidact on playing and recording.
With composing I started at the age of fourteen.
and guitar was the adequate instrument.
Joining live bands became my passion two years later.
I jammed and toured with local bands
and wrote the songs.
Until it became crystalized which musik direction will be my favorite
I was getting familiar with rock,jazz,funk,blues,soul and instrumental music.
By the time and moreover with solo projects
the ground became world music,athmo,chillout
combined with the influences I used to play live before.
One day I was finished with jamming and live bands
and decided to realize solo projects.
Luckily with the invention of personal computers
I was supported from the very beginning.
For solo projects I currently use a pc, sequencer,
virtual instruments and record some instruments live.
Disco:
The outcome of the digital work so far
is a free downloadable album named Petite dAfrique
available on different mp3 portals,
an retail CD named Shaku,
available on various shops worldwide
and releases of single tracks on the internet.
Thus to be updated with new releases..
Because of private circumstances and illnes like Tinnitus
there also have been longer periods of inactivity.
