1992/1993 - first steps to bring some noises together with my Amiga, I didn't know what a 4/4 beat means and so it sounded

1994 - someone explained me how to make music with the rigth beat and so i composed my first Hardcore-Technotracks

1995 - on 18th Nov 95 I put on records for the first time in a club at school. My name was DJ Freddy. I played a couple of my own tracks. Some guys liked it, wow.

   the flyer from 18th Nov 95

1996 - I bought the  TECHNOSOUNDturbo-AmigaStereo Sampling Catridge. The first thing I sampled was the voice of Babylon Zoo in the Song "Spaceman".

I made a lot of new tracks. They became better and better, at first alone, later with a friend called Christian. I gave him the name "Bassthard".

We put on records in a youthclub for a few times. We took our Amigas and played our own tracks, too.

Here you can see some flyers from that time    (just click on the pics)

1997 - I started writing own lyrics and arranged them into my tracks.

1998 - The music production stopped 'cause of my job and girlfriend.

2001 - The seperation from my girlfriend made me writing lyrics and composing again.

Now, the Amiga is old so I've bought some new equipment. And so I make new stuff.
