Trip to breakpoint was extremely interesting, though things didnt go as we planned. The biggest problem was that the trains were totally crowded in sweden, because of which we had to take some alternative routes. Well, I got a lot of things to tell about the trip, but I'll think I'm going to make the trip a section of it's own on this page. Breakpoint 2008 was quite nice too. Shame my song wasn't played on the streaming music compo, but I'll do better next time ;) The track can still be heard on the discography section of this site. It might end up in a demo or something..

I've had a break from writing here, somewhy I've just lacked the energy to write all these news no-one reads ;) Well, today I'm going to Turku to meet up with the rest of CMU and start planning our game project. I'll be updating all the news about the project here, and I might do a small section dedicated to it here.

And to other news. Atomimaitokahvi is going to Breakpoint 2008. Solarius is going by plane, but me, c8h11no2 and anninymous/darts are travelling in a more exotic manner: interrail! The trips going to be extremely interesting: we're going first to sweden via silja line cruiser, then travel to southern sweden by train, continue to Denmark, and finally try to get a night train to Germany. I'll be uploading a picture gallery about the trip in a month or so, or when I get the pictures.

I'm currently trying to get some website projects, so If you're in need of some basic websites, contact me!

The studio-weekend went quite well. The recording of drums and guitars took quite a lot more time than we thought, We have to go back there for another day to complete our demo.

I'm starting another website project: a site for disthrony. The site's main point is to spread our music and give some basic information about the band. A common bandsite. I'm trying to make the site as adjustable as I can, which is an extremely annoying task. I'll be showing the link to the site when it's somewhat ready.

#rommikopla -site is basically ready, and is located here. I'll be upgrading it on monthly basis (or when people ask me to do it). If the site is missing something that you think should be on the site, contact me! All feedback is highly appreciated! :)

Disthrony will go to the studio next weekend! I wish everything goes fine..

I just got a new synth and my first guitar. The synth is Roland Juno-D limited edition which seems to be quite fine (I haven't spent much time with it yet so I can't say for sure). I could use a bit more aggressive string sounds, but most of the leads sound awesome. The guitar is ESP LTD F50BCH. I'm not a good player so I can't say much of the quality, but at least I like it. :)

#rommikopla site is now under construction. It's for a school project, but I'm mainly trying to make it for the channel, so the only things related to school there are the ways of making things on the code level. The site is located here. Even though the graphic design is quite simple, it took over 5 hours of my time to complete it. :S




1.2.2008

I just finished reading a great book about web usability called "Don't Make Me Think". It's written by Steve Krug and available in many languages. I recommend anyone interested in web development to read the book!

I've also studying some PHP and MySQL now. The reason for this is a secret project me and garret are currently working on ;)




24.1.2008

I'm currently playing in a melodic metal band called Disthrony, and were going to record a demo of our own in one studio near Lempäälä, Finland. We're going to spend two days there, 24.2 and 25.2.s




23.1.2008

I finally got rid of my former ancient and crappy "homepage", and uploaded this site here. \o/ This new one is my first attempt in a bit more complicated website mechanics, though it's still really, really simple. I got the idea to update my site from school, where we're studying CSS and HTML at the moment.
