Started in 1997. Any trackers, MIDI sequencers, and other stuff. Both chip and sampled music. I also did music and sound effects for few commercial games. My favorite sound chip is 2A03. From sample-based formats and trackers I prefer XM and FT2/Skale/MilkyTracker. |

Although I'm not artist in general, I have basic skills of hand drawing, pixel art, digital painting, low and hi-poly 3D modelling. |
| Interests: |
Computers and game consoles. All that related to video games - history, emulation, programming, music, art. Programming for small-powered systems - software rendering and 2D graphics, for example. |

Currently none, though I'm often team-ups with Alone Coder to work on different ZX Spectrum-related projects. |
