I started making music with trackers (first with scream tracker and then with impulse tracker) when I was about 11 years old.
When the BBS culture died I still continued with trackers. Then I just got drunk for some years and at some point I teached myself to play guitar and I'm still learning. I haven't finished a serious song for about 8 years allthough music has allways been a big part of my life.
Now after dumping windows and battling with differen linux settings I've settled for archlinux with openbox using renoise, rakarrack, guitarix and random synths I really think my creativity is gonna peak.
