This page contains tunes I have composed and produced by myself at my small but cozy home studio. They are instrumental tunes (if you have ever heard me sing, you'll know why) and mostly guitar-based (for obvious reasons - I play guitar better than I play any other instrument).

Anything with a cool guitar
What equipment do you use?
The "studio" mainly consist of the software package, which (IMO) is an excellent piece of software for the not-so-ambitious home musician. This runs on a standard HP PC with Windows XP and a Terratec audio card.
All guitar and keyboard parts are played by myself. The guitar parts are made with the , which is a completely cool plaything for the home-based guitar player. It totally rocks!
Keyboard parts are done with a DXi, where the MIDI part is played on an external cheapo Yamaha synt (one of those automated play-along thingies). The DXi used are either the LiveSynt Pro 1.4 using some SoundFont, or the VSC DXi.
Drums are mainly done with pre-made ACID-loops from the HS XL. The bass lines are done either with MIDI on the keyboard or with loops. I am not really satisfied with either .... so I need to buy a real bass guitar at some point (when I get rich or something).
