If I was not Amiga user, I would have thought performing the Interactive Live show was impossible, and I wouldn't have even proposed it. What I learnt from Amiga is "Search a strange exit before you give up".

Amen, brother!
it's why i STILL love amiga! :-)

That interview made me smile. :-)

There really is nothing like Amiga.

I was in London last weekend, getting a crash-course in 'Logic',
on a dual-G5 Mac. The programme and the machine were
both fantastic but I *still* find myself enjoying using this
Pegasos more.

Hoya!

Hey! Great to see this!
Too bad he makes techno though...
Oddly enough he seems to have STABILITY troubles with his Ammies??!! Aren't Amigas supposed to be extremely stable? That is weird.


Back to Japanese music...
There are great musicians over there...

Ryuichi Sakamoto.
Midori Takada
Masahiko Sato.
Kitaro...

Enjoy

From what I've listened to, I wouldn't call it strictly "Techno".  It's more like synth-pop???  Well, think Anime soundtrack and you get a better flavor of his style.
