I have been playing with other musicians for all my life and I will certainly continue to do so. Then I discovered a French drummer named Duracell who was experimenting with triggers and 8 bit melodies, and seeing a solo drummer doing melodies with his drum kit inspired me to push drum triggering to a new level. I've always wanted to have fun with my instrument rather than just stick to conventional drumming (but don't get me wrong, I have much respect for the art of drumming and I have studied drums for many years). And from the very beginning I've always been interested in going beyond the rhythm while playing drums, experimenting with different sounds, having fun with dynamics, using loopers, electronic pads, triggering samplers, etc. I've been studying piano and guitar before playing drums, so melodies were already a part of my musical vocabulary. I started playing drums at the age of 15 and I was interested in electronics from the very beginning. This was something that I had in mind basically since forever.
