A few old tunes

I found a really old MD tape a while ago with a few really old song on it. It was fun as hell listening to a few of first attempts in making electronic music. I don't think they should be taking too seriously, but still I uploaded them onto the site.
I have also create a Virb account. I don't know why since I always disliked Myspace...
I'll be glad if you paid it a visit though.

Years ago I told myself never to learn any kind of programming. Boring and eXtrEem'ly time consuming was all I thought it was. Still think it is. But I forced myself and got my head around a bit of html, php and java. The modest result is what you're looking at right now.

Some background.
tRasH cAn maN was something I came up with a few years ago. It was an artist name I could use with all those tracks that didn't fit in style or feel with any other tracks, to make up an album.
Somewhere around that time, LSDj came to my notice and awoke my interest in low bit music (chip tunes if you must) and trackers again.
Just as a lot of guys and gals from my generation, computer game music was something I found, well, sort of fascinating. Many of the harsh, fat timbres of the SID chip e.g., (the sound chip inside the Commodore 64 computer) are even as of today unique.
Using music trackers (a specific type of music composition software), in the late 80'ies, was an entry into more orchestrated/multitimbral composition. And to electronic music for that matter.
So, tRasH can maN became more related to chip music than I first had though and today I'm not quite sure as to keep it solely for that, or make use of it as I originally planed...

A web site would very much be required for the tRasH cAn maN project. And it took only about five years before that came true! The site is simple and that's the way I want it.
In any case, it's main purpose is for me to dump a few of my song for you to download freely.
