Neo Medieval music with electronic & trance elements, Ambient, filmscore influence and folk music .


Danish producer, 30+ years old.

Music has always had a tremendous impact on me. I have, as far back as I can remember, always loved music. There were always some special tapes or records my mom or dad would let me listen to just before bedtime. I've always felt most comfortable when I was "surrounded by sound."

My mother has and had a piano in the living room that I composed music on. I was not very old but can still remember some of the themes I made back then. Back then I was not aware of what music would actually come to mean to me but I do remember how much I enjoyed it even though it was only play. I've never learned to read music, everything I've learned is "learned by ear"

When I was about 13 years old I was involved in an accident which resulted in that I got deaf in my right ear. It ruined my career as a hockey player (I was on Denmark’s youth team). At the same time I stopped being involved in music. I simply could not tolerate the loud sounds. But after a few years I slowly developed the desire and joy to make music again. I suddenly discovered one can make music with a computer, which was the beginning of my musical career.

I am never planning ahead to make music. When the desire and the idea are there, I start to produce or compose.

Inspiration can come from many things, love, joy, sorrow, etc. When I am in some specific mood, melodies will usually pop up.

The past and my hometown Kastrup on the isle of Amager (near Copenhagen) also play a special role when we're talking music. It is the place where I grew up and am living today and it is the foundation for who I am today. All the good and negative things I've seen around here really are an important inspiration in my work.
