| Experience: |
I've composed about 250 songs, I've recorded it all onto
29 audio CD's. The music I create is pop, jazz, techno,
and lately I've become very interested in experimental
music. My three last CD's are mainly of experimental
nature. In 1997 I started working with the GM format,
creating music suitable for the internet media. |
| Influences: |
Joseph Zawinul, Miles Davis, Ornette Coleman, Prodigy,
Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream, and not
least Frank Zappa. ("Civilization Phaze III" is my
favourite album along with Zawinul's "Dialects") |
| Hardware: |

is a Bryce image I made.
I'm one of those souls who believe
that the universe in an endless cycle of expansion and retraction. I
try to illustrate that in Mirror, when we're close to experiencing a
reversed big bang. |
|
figurat1.mid : |
"Figurative Feelings Part I" Experimental Jazz. More
like free improvisation. :-) |
|
katiania.mid : |
"Katiania" A tribute to Joseph Zawinul, I try to use
some of his way of creating music, repeative solo lines
in the arrangement. (background) |
|
medicmin.mid : |
"Funk Meditations in C Minor", a funk tune where I mainly
improvise and manipulate sequences, in short having fun. |
|
kiliview.mid : |
"Kilimanjaro Views", an ethnic like song where I'm
by the minimalism and atmospheres of Jon Hassel. |
|
tbc.mid : |
"TbC" A tune I wrote for the "Cyber Street Music" a new
project I started with a Japanese net musician a few
months ago. Our goal is to create a CD including many
net musicians and sell it on the internet. |
|
tongo.mid : |
"Tap Tongo" More of a rythmic dance tune, where I use
lots of minimalism and brass to get a mix of african
and western dance music. |
|
vblueice.mid : |
"Variations on Blue Ice" is an excerpt version of a tune
on my latest audio CD "Blue". It's very different from
the audion version, since I use alot of weird-sounding
samples on that CD. The song is about a bad experience
I had earlier with this kind of ice. |
