An Estonian weather enthusiast, whose side-hobby is independent music composing.
I am a weather enthusiast, whose true passion is actually meteorology, but I also have a side hobby: computer music making. Since I was a small child, the music has been a way to help me to unwind(I have been diagnosed with Aspergers Syndrome, so I can sometimes get quite upset, and then the relaxing music can be a saviour). First I didn't listen much else besides New Age & Ambient, but in 2004, my taste started to expand(but even nowadays, New Age and Ambient have high priority in my playlist). But years of listening to relaxing music has left the mark on me - when I got interested in music, and started improvising on a synthesizer sometimes in mid 2000's, I was improvising New Age-like tunes. In 2007, I got started in composing MIDI music, and eventually found my way to other technologies as well. Nowadays, my technique generally is that I make some "key measures", and start to evolve around them. I like to experience with audio language derived from morse code(I am also a ham radio operator) and with combinations of various instruments. Often I try to hide some morse code messages into the melody as well.

Story behind the song
Back in September on one Tuesday afternoon, I was in Tartu, awaiting a CD presentation of a good friend who is a musician. It was still hour to wait and nearby that building, which was on Vanemuise street, there was a water fountain... and as I stared that water fountain, a melody started to hit my mind. It finally got that bad I rushed to a nearby shop, and bought a notes booklet(type of booklet you would use to learn music in 4th grade), and a pencil, and I started laying down notes... Later I revisited it at home, and started to develop it. The QRQ morse code you are hearing is "VANEMUISE"(The street I was at) and "OOTUS"(Waiting - Estonian language)
