I canīt tell you any year or something i started with this kind of music, because itīs a long process. Gothic is a genre of music which splits in different styles of music. In the past there was the german word "GRUFTI", but can you tell me what is a "GRUFTI" today?
5- What and who are some of your influences in Electro / Industrial / Alternative ?
I donīt want to sound like other acts are still existing. I think every kind of music you hear at that time when you working on a track influences a little.

Defenetive Frontline Assembly - Mindfaser 10 times ;)

I donīt think about that right now.
15- What do you think of a modern Electro / Industrial / Alternative and about Gothic scene?
I think there should be a lot more small festivals for upcoming musicians. The gothic scene grows bigger and a lot more people get to know that kind of music than 20 years ago, which is a earn of the modern medias like internet. But business interests arenīt really good for that kind of music.
