How it all started:
I started to play keys when I was 16. I founded heavy music again, when I heard Visions -album from Stratovarius. Tero Vaaja borrowed it to me and right after that I bought my own copy. An other friend of mine played guitar then as well and he suggested that I start to play something too. My options were drums, bass and keys. I chose the last one.
My first keyboard was some Yamaha´s home model, which had terrible sounds, but that was my instrument when we played Stratovarius and Children of Bodom for first six months, badly. After that I bought a decent synth, which is still in use. Soon after investing I started to record my own things/songs to sequencer. This was the time when first Excalion´s songs were born.
