Short biography:
I have been playing on bass guitar ever since I was 15 years of age. I have always admired those musicians, who could get their sound just right. I started my musical studies in 1998, at the Erkel Ferenc college of music. I met Tamás Szabó at the same school. I have had the opportunity to get to know, and study from Studnicky "Zsatyi".  With his vast knowledge and original style, he opened the door to a brand new world of music for me. Later on, I managed to get enrolled in the Kőbányai Music Studio, where I was trained intensively to play the bass, whereupon I had the honour to learn from some excellent teachers. Let me mention the one, who's my role model as well, Ulmann Ottó. Who personally nurtured my improvement in music.. Thanks again Mr. Ulmann :).Not to mention Tóth János Rudolf "Janó", who showed me the way to find my own style, and helped my expand my world of music. And last but not least, I have to mention Póka Egon and his fantastic style of playing.
A few years ago, I've taken interest in information technology, and nowadays I'm getting a hunch for some web designing as well.
