My MIDI controller is an M-Audio Axiom 61. I use the Mbox LE for audio inputs and a Presonus Studio Channel. Electric guitar, nice condensor mic, plenty of NI synths, and I'm happy. Always adding more, and switching stuff out to keep things fun.

I've been playing the piano since I was 3, and have played other instruments throughout my whole life so far. On top of that I've been a computer nerd since before BBS days and therefore put 2+2 together,... I guess you could call it a natural affinity, but more just it falls perfectly into my realm of interest and passion ;) The best part is, there is always room for learning and improvement.

Yes.

Depends on which live videos you've seen...

YES!!!!!!! I love Ray Lynch! Wow, you're the first person to pick up on that, let alone hear of him :)

It's very nice to be asked this, however due to massive time constraints I simply cannot say. They should get ahold of me though, at info@unter-null.net

Next STRAY album - to be released in September this year. Next UNTER NULL album is currently in production. No set release date yet.

Well, all my tracks are inspired by emotions of any sort, be they happy or sad or angry or whatnot. My STRAY project is definitely fueled by more happy emotions. However, with music, and for me, it's important that I channel any negative emotions into it, because I want to get rid of those awful feelings and put them to good use, while retaining any happy feelings I have, and keep those to myself ;)

Software synths.

It's a catch-22. I don't buy into the "I'd never heard of XYZ band if I hadn't downloaded it off megafuckload" because most, if not ALL artists and labels offer their tracks on LEGIT sites for STREAMING. You indeed CAN try before you buy! When a lot of time, effort, and money is put into a release, a package deal, it's a real fucking shame when there's no gratitude at all, it's just take, take, take. What's a half-legal site? Mind explaining that one?

Translucent.

That's not a question - and you should really consider going to a doctor and checking that out.

Many shades of black.

The iPad and the Roland GAIA synth.

Earth: It's dying but has some gorgeous places. Please take care of it.
Love: It's scary and beautiful and comes at interesting times.
Friendship: Cherish your friends, don't take advantage of them, treat them well, and you shall be treated as such in return. Don't consider asskissers to be "friends".
War: Could be solved over a great meal and some wine.
Cinema: Stay out of the theatres, Hollywood ruins remakes, watch a lot of Argento.
UFO: I want to believe, do you?
Death: Don't fear it, embrace it, and realize life is short, so LIVE.

EASY: Nick Cave + The Bad Seeds, followed by Nine Inch Nails (their production alone is jawdropping).

Be very careful of who my friends are, and disappear.

Planning takes two parties when it comes to shows: the band and the PROMOTERS.. now, if a promoter in Italy asked us to play? Why, yes, we'd be there in a heartbeat. booking@unter-null.net

Absolutely. It takes work on both parties' ends.

I used to, but I made my own. DIY do or die. It's been years.
