1-How did your interest for computers start? Which year was that?

I played with the C64 when I went to my Uncle in... 1983 ;-)


2-What machines did you previously have? What did you do with them?

Amstrad CPC464 (1986), Amstrad CPC6128 (1987), Amiga 500 (1988), Amiga 500+ (1992)
and... Amiga 1260T in March 2000 ! ;-)  That's all, never PC or Mac ! ;-)
I've always done : programms, graphics and musics on my computers (near playing
games and showing demos of course :-)


3-For what specific reason did you end up making music rather than gfx, coding?

In fact, I started to code with Amstrad, started to draw with my first Amiga and
just after to try compose musics (in 1990...). I started to compose musics because
I love the music on Amiga, so I tried ;-)


4-Which composing programs have you been using? Which one in particular?

First SoundTracker & NoiseTracker and after ProTracker (the most).


5-With which module did you feel you had reached your goal?

'El-Golea' in 1994 :-)


6-Is there a tune you would like not to remember? For What reason?

My first mods because they were not music ! ;-))


7-In your opinion, what's the value of a music in a demo, game?

It's very important for the atmosphere/ambiance. Many of demos have success mainly
with their music.


8-At present, are you still composing? For professional or leisure purposes?

No, not enougth time :-(  but probably in some months (I will try ;-)


9-What do you think of today's pieces of music such as mpeg,wave,midi,etc...? 

They have not the feeling of the 'classic' amiga modules ! ;-)


10-Could you tell us some of your all times favourite tunes?

The famous 'Global Trash 3 v2', 'klisje paa klisje', '1989-a number',... and
recently 'Wings' (from Neurodancer).


11-Are you planning to make an audio cd with some of your music remastered?

No, I don't think, I have already some tapes ;-).


12-What bands are you currently listenning to?

Texas, Blur,...


13-What does/did the amiga/c64 scene give you?

All ! especially creativity ! :-)


14-Are you still active in the scene these days?

mmmmh... yes ! ;-)

I'm the author of the 'Annuaire Amiga Francophone' : The List of the french Amiga
Users around the world (http://www.annuaire.amiga.tm)
and I'm writer for the french paper Amiga magazine 'PLANETamiga'
(http://planet.amiga.tm)


15-Anyone to greet? Anything left to say? Feel free...

Never stop to believe on Amiga ! Never stop to create, code and compose on Amiga ! :-)
Amiga is not dead and will really come back (this year 2001 is really the future
of Amiga :-)  Wait and see... ;-)

And continue to send your musics to Crown and Curt Cool for their great AMP ! ;-)
