View Full Version : The Synthetic Swede
Hi, My name is Thomas. I'm from Sweden but find myself moving around a lot these days. I'm curently in London, making films and will soon move over to Berlin to make more.. er... films.
I know what you're thinking! But no, I'm not in the porn industry!!! <img src="smile.gif" border="0">
I love electronic music from the 80,s like SKINNY PUPPY, kraftwerk, D.A.F einsturzenden neubauten, JM. Jarre (Am I the only one who liked the zoolook album?!),depeche mode etc...
I make my own music from time to time too. You know, in and out of various bands?
I was born in 1977 so I kinda missed the whole thing! At least in the sence that I was to young to see any of my favorite bands perform... sigh!
I love the place btw.

Welcome Bugboy. Like your taste in music. <img src="smile.gif" border="0">
NewRomantic 7-19-01, 05:59 AM Hello bugboy, welcome.
Well I guess you are someone that will understand my main joys in life...
I drive a beige 1983 240 Volvo and into '80's pop music, and if you are still reading on then surely it's a miracle...
I'm sure you'll read on. I said something similar in my introduction of myself to this site way back in January this year, and everyone was very cool about the whole thing.
What kind of films do you make?
I trust that when not out on lacation, you will have fun on this site.
ENjoy
