I am influenced by an early dose of electronic music created by Walter Carlos in the beginning of the seventies, the album’s name was “Switched on Bach”, as the name suggests the album is based on J.S.Bach’s music in an interpretation on the very new Synthesizers developed by Bob Moog. Pop, Rock, Disco, Funk, Rap, New Wave, Neue Deutsche Welle, yes, and there are some punk songs I like too. Ooops, not to forget: I love classic music.
