What is music to you? What does it give you?

An escape from the monotony of modern day life.

What is your music dream?

No dream really. I guess having moderate success would be nice, but being famous seems like too much work... and I'm incredibly lazy.

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

Fear, hatred and confusion.

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

"Lightning Crashes" by Live.

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

Boards Of Canada Casino Versus Japan Tycho Oneohtrix Point Never Carbon Based Lifeforms Aphex Twin Autechre 2814 Tim Hecker Venetian Snares Tangerine Dream The M Machine Steve Roach Brian Eno Tor Lundvall Alio Die Desiderii Marginis Hammock God Is An Astronaut Kwoon Explosions In The Sky Animals as Leaders Chon Russian Circles Sunwarper Survey Channel Letters from Mouse Forest Robots many more, but I need to stop blabbing.

What inspires you to make music?

It's pretty much the only thing I know how to do. Without it, I'm basically useless.

What is the message you want to send with your music?

No message really.

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

What's an audience?

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

I don't pay much mind to it anymore. It saddens me. I just pretend that the corporate mainstream stuff doesn't exist, even if I have to avoid it being shoved down my throat every time I go to public places. I honestly don't know how it could be improved if I'm being honest.

What do you think of Drooble?

It's pretty rad.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

When people act like they support and listen to you, but don't, for whatever their reasons. I'd much rather them just tell me my music sounds like shit, than be fake about it.

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

Not really locally, I live in a place where oil and gas mean more than the environment, let alone the fine arts... I do however, support my online community, and I do it quite often.

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

Just make the music you want to hear.

Share some awesome artists that we’ve never heard of.

Feel free to check out the lists of artists I posted earlier, maybe you'll find something you dig.
