About Me:
In my opinion the ultimate maxim is:
Just live your life, and don't make anybody cry...
If all people will think like that - nobody will cry and will not hurt anybody. That's pretty logic, but people don't remember to to that, and that's sad. Remember to be responsible forever for what you have tamed... - That's another lesson.
Also don't let those good things, music, the past - be forgotten. Light this fire day after day, if you truly love your values.
But wait, wait... who am I to tell you, what to do?

3 Persons, that "Changed my life"
Personally I'm a huge fan of Al Green and that kind of soul, love music. He taught me, that I'm not alone with my feelings, system of values and the way, that I'm seeing this world. I can even say, that the only difference between me and him - is the voice : )
Another person is DJ Qbert. A man, that have inspired me, created a passion, taught, that every little thing, that we wish - is possible. Besides he's a such a nice dude. The only difference between us is that he had made a success in his life - i have not...
And the last donut... . Yes, it's him.
James "J DILLA" Yancey. He have taught me a huge list of things. He don't even know... . He taught me, that internal silence is a friend of creativity. He taught me, that it's not the gear, it's the man behind it. That you must only master your "hammer", because the vision of a perfect "sword" - is already in your head. He taught me also to not give up (Him, with a hard health disaster on a wheelchair, performing on the scene). Not like many artists - he was just silent, focused on what he loves so much, alone with his love. He didn't promote his creativeness. People have just done it.
And there's one more person, but I'll keep it for myself.

Q: What kind of music are you making?
Oldskul: All music. Just many genres. It depends only to my imagination and what I really like. Me myself - I love those slow, mellancholic sounding love songs. You can type "Al Green" anywhere to check out what I'm saying. I'm really into hip hop, and all genres of music that are strictly linked with it, jazz, gospel, soul, funk, experimental music and some of the other. I'm collecting albums with music when I only have time to go and dig from city to city. It's a real pleasure for me. For real...
Q: What equipment are you mainly using?
Oldskul: My "hammer" to make a "good sword" is just a sampler. I'm really into those old school type of things. Not only the music, but also many of the equipment from the past - makes me much more happy to work with : ). And yeah I'm using my beloved MPC 3000. In the past I was using mpc 1000 but wasn't quite happy with the "newschooliness" of that piece of machine =].
Q: What are your personal feelings when making music?
Oldskul: Having to deal with loneliness is one of the hardest things in life. I was dissapointed about many things in last time. Also was dissapointed about behaviours of some people, that I really care. I'm not happy in my life. Whenever I'm making music - I always give for all of my listeners a kind of a sign. Sign about what to think over. All of the tracks, their signs are like a big, thought over puzzle, that makes sense, when put together. And that I want it to be. Today and tomorrow...
