Since age 14 I have played, composed and produced electronic synth-music

The old icons have been and still is my biggest inspiration and also characterize the music to this day.

This musical journey to a concert in cyberspace, started many years ago.

Music has always inspired and fascinated me, and I have always had an urge to express myself through music.

My musical sprouting started when I, as a 14-year-old, started playing organ. The time of synthesizer music was in its early spring and I was seized from the very beginning.

The great icons like Tangerine Dream, Vangelis and not least Jean-Michel Jarre have always fascinated and inspired me. And all my life, my interest in music has been there.

My first band was put together by my life long friend Flemming Pedersen, who shared and still shares the synthesizer passion with me.

Our band was called "Synthphonic" and during 1980 - 1990, a lot of synth-music was played and produced.

My private life took a turn and I moved away from my hometown and at once my working career took away the time to my music, and for nearly 20 years I didn't touch the music.

But in 2019, I was struck by a gastrointestinal illness that put a temporary halt to my working career. Leaving work and finding my way back to my beloved music.

In the spring of 2019, the album "concert in cyberspace" by Synth replicants was born and with pressure and a lot of support from my loving wife Christina, and from friends and family i decided to release my music public. The album was aired on the music site "Bandcamp" and released via the music distributon service "Ditrokid".

The music went viral on iTunes, YouTube, Spotify, Napster and many other music services. This was the start of "A new era..."

It means a lot to me that people out there in the world like my music, support me by buying it, and not least by just listening to it.

I am happy and proud to be where I am today, with the music at the center and with an audience taking me to a concert in cyberspace.i
