Musical backgroundI started studying music at the age of four. I studied classical piano by taking personal lessons, but quit official studies during teenage years. At that point I began learning guitar by myself, mostly by ear but also by tablatures and continued playing piano in a more freeform way. I've always had quite intuitive and chaotic viewpoint towards music, hence my knowledge on theory is quite limited at best.
Building the home studioIn the year 2000 I decided to start building PC based home studio. I got myself midi-keyboard and started browsing the internet forums and messageboards for information regarding the possibilities and best practices home musicians had found out regarding music production and PC based solutions. I decided that hardware is not for me and hence I started building totally VST and sound library based system, over which I'd have total control with sequencer and keyboard - no other strings attached. The general structure is still evolving, but you can find out the main instruments and libraries on the studio page. Creative Commons -viewpointTo me, art and music are almost holy and sacred things and I find that the freedom of expression and creativity are such concepts that they hold almost absolute value. Hence from the beginning it was clear to me, that whatever I manage to produce, I will share it with the world as freely as possible. Creative Commons was the way to go. Whenever I manage to produce something, I instantly put it up as mp3 file with as little restrictions regarding the use and copyright than is reasonable. All of my projects contain the following statement and licence:
