I had  Multimedia Beethoven  for Xmas and I think you will see some of the
effects of this by  listening to this song. :)   I hope that the judges of
the music contest like classical music!   Don't panic, I will make another
techno song soon for the techno freaks out there... and also a song in the
style of JAMS because it seems that some people liked it (Hi Daniel!) :)...

About me

First of all, I'm 18 years old  and I go to  Cégep Ste-Foy in Quebec City.
I normaly speak french.(Maybe you already realised that by the way I write
in English :)  and  I live in  Cap-Santé, a little town near  Quebec City,
Canada.  I'm  in  Computer  Science  for the  first year.  I played on the
keyboard of a  computer  for the  first time  when I was  4 years old.  It
was an old  Ohio Scientific C2-8P with an  8 inch disk drive!  In 1984, we
bought our first PC and since this time we have kept this kind of computer.
I'm also the  proud owner of a  Gravis Ultrasound.  I started making music
when Ultra-tracker first came out in June 93. It's a very cool tracker and
the only one that can  make 32 voices music.  I now  mainly use  Farandole
&  Ultra-tracker but I try every trackers that comes out!  I don't want to
limit myself to one format...
