Started playing drums in 1979. I bought my first synth 1987 -Yamaha DSR-1000. I had also Roland E-35 back in the days. Now I have Korg, Alesis & M-Audio.
I'm independent music producer from Scandinavia, Finland. I have making electronic music since 2016. I do everything by myself, from drafts to mixing and finally mastering tracks. I am interested more of sounds than just making songs. I really like to experiment things. I can make tracks very fast and produced lots of music but my time is limited. I do not want to hurry. I just publishing and uploading my tracks when I feel like it! That's it.

Story behind the song
John Kenneth Wetton (12 June 1949 31 January 2017). One of the most technically proficient and in-demand rock instrumentalists of the '70s and '80s, Wetton worked with a number of bands in his early career before coming to national prominence as the new singer and bassist for prog-rock legends King Crimson in 1972. After that group was disbanded a couple years later, Wetton spent time with the similarly renowned art-rock outfits Roxy Music and Uriah Heep, and formed the group U.K. with Crimson drummer Bill Bruford. In the '80s, Wetton briefly launched a solo career before joining his most commercially successful outfit: Asia, a supergroup also featuring members of Yes and Emerson, Lake & Palmer. The group's self-titled debut album was a smash, topping the Billboard 200 Albums chart for nine weeks and spawning Hot 100 top 20 hits with "Heat of the Moment" and "Only Time Will Tell." He was fired from the group after underwhelming sales for 1983's follow-up Alpha but rehired a few years later, bouncing in and out of the lineup before permanently rejoining in the late '00s. Carl Palmer, who also worked with Wetton in Asia, released a statement about his late bandmate this morning, calling him a "musical giant" that was "both brave and innovative, with a voice that took the music of ASIA to the top of the charts around the world." https://johnwettonlegacy.co.uk/biography
