At all times from scratch, write and play it on a synth/midi-keyboard connected to a PC or a simple synth set to piano or string-like sound for checking melody, harmonies and such. I I know my mastering sucks, but I do not consider myself a sound engineer, nor do I want to become one. I enjoy making up songs -- I'm a composer, at best. , but prefer playing each piece of music with my own ten fingers on the keyboard. This of course requires lowering the recording speed for some tracks, well, who can play 9 to 10 keys per second as is necessary for some tunes? :-) (Feb 18 2004), so I'd most appreciate if you could listen to my uploads and
Band/artist history
There's not much band history ;) I quit smoking in January this year, so my fingers needed something else to do. I reactivated my almost 10 year old midi-keyboard, which I used to play around with back then, and that's it.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I'm NOT a DJ, I do not mix or such. Also, I never played live so far. Which means absolutely nothing since I just started composing music ;) Though I probably could play live, 'cause I can read score and my fingers seem to be quick enough.
What equipment do you use?
A lame 500 MHz P III and an old Roland MK II midi keyboard. "DISK OH-FIVE" was entirely played on an Italian synth/work station named "S2R", a rather strange and rare thing I guess, still in my possession. And a good old Moog Rogue sits there, an idiot sold it to me for less than 30 dollars. At the moment I'm playing around with Reason, that's it. No other software or such. Need to buy better mastering and synth software in the future.
Anything else?
Funny, how many people here are typing the answers to your questions like a third-person narrator.

Montreal is still... my favorite track of yours. I'd purchase it, if that were an available function.
Really enjoyed your songs. Liked Montreal and Watching You the best. Seems like there might be some sort of recording glitch (unless it was my computer) in Montreal. Pretty impressive that you don't use a sequencer at all. I don't use loops from other folks--just my own--and that's hard enough. Keep up the good work. Ethan
great music !! best wishes to ya Dj Headz from Scientek Basement
Listening to "Guitarboy is Dead" - I'm loving the nostaglie dripping of it. Being a fan of melodic video game tunes, this was a pleasure to hear... Thanks. In spite of my like for it - Montreal is still my favorite. I'd buy a download if I could.
wow you are the first person i liked in 10 seconds I enjoyed your music very much it usually just takes me that long
