The world as it were, and are...

Solo-ish project formed in Trondheim, Norway 2006
Released 1 album so far
Using technology from the past to create music for tomorrow
A few sentimental journeys to times that were (my times, mind you!)
Tried to learn HEX on an Ensoniq Mirage 8-bit sampler
Are very undecisive
This IS the resource
Featured on Series Two Records compilations
Tried to paint like Alwyn Crashaw - took a picture instead
Found that drunk gigs aren't the best
Follow the guidelines of Dr. MeDeviate


If the world was a good place...

Won a Grammy for most perfectioned bass playing
Exterminated Elton John's "Nikita"
Threw a ball of hair at Bon Jovi (which he choked on)
Invented the Fairlight CMI
Released 1 album each year
Became a news anker in Chicago 1983
Was a regular at Cheers!
Norway never found oil
Never bought a synthesiser on credit

Facebook was only weird idea, stuck in a cellar bedroom
