Hello, dear Stranger!

"I am playing synthesizers…"

… well, at least what is left of those ancient beasts since the early days of the dawning Electronic Age. Here, you can download some of my songs.

Want to learn more? Read the interview by Gerald Dellmann @ MegaSynth.de with me (in German). [site is down, the link goes to web.archive.org]

I have developed several VST2/AU plug-ins – look for them in the vst+au section.

Please give me some feedback!

eden

mountain music
(4'06'' / 3.9MB)

(4'02'' / 3.9MB)
classic Electronica (recorded back in 1986).
For these two rusty buckets I solely used a Mono/Poly and a DeltaLab JR 1050 Effectron digital delay (to be honest that was almost all I had at that time).
Recording was done on a friend's Yamaha four-track cassette recorder (no ping-pong, just overdubbing).
Unfortunately, today I only have the "master mix" left (on cassette and in mono), so sorry for the poor sound quality.
To refurbish the recordings I used some decent EQing and reverb.

I revived my K2000VP for it and added some VST stuff.

started as a fun project – and ended in fun. Enjoy its serious atmosphere.
The scream is sampled from a rotten computer game.

Prog Rock instrumental – many vintage sounds.
