What is music to you? What does it give you?

Music is my passion since I first had a guitar in hands. I keep writing tracks - only instrumental cos' I can't sing - and improve myself as much as I can. I'm a metalhead eventhough I can play softer stuffs.

What is your music dream?

I'd just love to live from my music. Not being a star, but make it my day job.

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

planting 10 billion trees would be a good starting point

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

We will Rock you by Queen. I was 2 when this song came out and I couldn't asking my parents to play it on and on

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Trivium, Bullet For My Valentine, Avenged Sevenfold, Andy James... Well these are the first names that come to my mind. I'm also a big fan of Ludwig Van Beethoven.

What inspires you to make music?

pretty much everything. Waiting for a storm cos' it's 40°C outside, the color name of a guitar I've just bought ("scary cherry")... As soon as I grab a guitar, inspiration comes.

What is the message you want to send with your music?

I'm not sending any message, I'm just playing for the pleasure of playing... But hey, maybe that's a message ot its own :)

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

I haven't practiced this for a long time, but was feeling tons of motivation and a lot of stress, especially during the 2 or 3 fisrt songs.

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

Music was a richmen's world until Napster appears. Now, Napster has died, but it has become almost impossible de live from music. Now, what could be done ? So easy to steel someone's music today, I don't know what the solution could be.

What do you think of Drooble?

I'm just discovering how Drroble works eventhough I signed in months ago. So I'll give an answer in a few weeks or months.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

Not enough time to practice, play, record...

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

Well my local scene is very poor, and the musical style these few bands play is not really mine. Sometimes, I go to see a band, but it's not that often.

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

I think the basis are always the same : do it as good as you can, and never consider you're at the top of your game. There's always something to improve.
