| As I was 9 years old I was forced to play piano by my father and I'm really glad he was so besetting in practicing with me and not to lose his temper to open my mind for music. After 5 years of piano-education I finally came across the rock music and I decided to learn guitar by myself. For the nonce I just had an old, but very nice acoustic guitar, so I played the common cords the whole day (Oh my God, I was proud ). At a later date I found my first Band, we made Rock with German lyrics, because they accidentally were searching for a bassist. So I bought a bass and started to learn playing it too. We had a few gigs and at this time I also got Dave to know. My daily practice was about 8 hours, but I tried not to disregard one of the instruments I played. With the foundation of Illuminata I didn't just made my first studio-experiences, but I also intensively busied myself with harmonics and arranging. Since the day our ex-guitarist left the band I enjoy playing guitar. Of course music, playing guitar, Computer and Internet, sports and drinking beer :) My tardiness (Although I always leave my home in time!), a very besetting perfectionism and sometimes this unbelievable strange confusion… Yngwie Malmsteen, Michael Amott, Hans Zimmer, Yann Tiersen Nightwish, After Forever, Arch Enemy, Afi, Sonata Arctica Metamorphobia, A Frame Of Beauty Pirates of the Caribbean, Lord of the rings, The Jacket, Domino, 11:14 The Parfume, Lord of the rings, The general harmony teachings, Operating instruction of my Synthesizers :) Beer with coke, Tequila Sunrise, Malibuuuu!
