I have German and Altaic roots. My current location is Carmel mount, Holy Land. In Indian music Sa, Re, Ga and Ma are the first 4 notes of Saptak - an octave of seven notes. I guess I picked the nick SaReGaMa because I'm really fond of Indian classical music, which in my humble opinion is the most profound and sophisticated music in the world. You can learn a lot about a person by knowing his musical preferences. Well, I can listen almost to everything, except Pop, Rock and Trance ( funny I began with Electronic music making Trance). In Electronic music among the favorites are : Steve Roach, Alio Die, Mercan Dede, Jairamji, Nitin Sawhney, Prem Joshua, Ishq, FSOL, Union Jack, Thievery Corporation etc. I started making music as a hobby using Yamaha CS1, Cool Edit and FL Studio. I had also been playing flute in the Ethnic Rock band "Igra Rama" and done several solo performances for background music in happenings. I had a big passion for music but not enough means to afford musical instruments, so I learned how to build them. Most of the instruments I have are homemade. The instruments I play are : piano, guitar, different kinds of ethnic flutes, didgeridoo, percussions, kalimba and jews harp. My music can be defined as Organic-Electronic World Fusion. It can be great for background listening but at the same time it's very elaborated and deserves to be listened in a serious manner with full attention. I invest a lot in the sense of ambient 3D space - depth, distances, directions, motions and their dynamics. The tracks are loaded with little details, sounds and stereo effects. To experience them fully I advise to set your speakers as wide as possible (4 meters at least recommended) and sit in the middle in front of them, in equilateral triangle pattern. Headphones are not good for this kind of music. Although they provide additional details they fail to convey a sense of depth. Some tracks contain up to 80 channels and comprise irregular beats of 1.5 - 2.5 - 3 - 5 - 6 - 7 etc. So listen carefully, try not to miss it. Sarva Mangalam.
