Home-made musical playground

When I have spare time I do some compositions at home where I play all the instruments myself. This has been a hobby of mine since I got my first Fostex X-28 4-track recorder around the age of 14 and even before that using mod trackers on a computer.

Hundreds of song ideas have been developed during the years and some of them ended up online. I love trying out some new ideas and make them to 'songs' just to see how they work. Later they can be produced with more time and better equipment if necessary - except there is never that time. I still have the ambition to continue this hobby so stay tuned..

Don't mind the suboptimal sound quality in some of the songs, most of them are intentionally not polished.
