Highlight of your career so far:
For me highlight do not exist, playing for me means pure love - whether it is in big concerts or in studio or with a small group, it doesn't matter.
Drumming strengths:
I do not play a Drumset, but an instrument which is being created by playing together with other musicians
Drumming means to me:
Being my real self, without playing too much the instrument and without the instrument playing too much myself. It's life and character!
Advice for up and coming drummers:
Never copy anyone: listening to other drum players is very useful, but you have to use your own character and soul
How would you describe yourself:
I am always searching for myself on the cymbals and on the drums...I am too glad to do this as a profession!
When I look back on my life one day, I would like to be able to say:
I would be glad to leave something sincere and positive behind. Everybody has a meaning in life, I would have my meaning in my profession as a drum player, in order to convey my being to the people
