about

This is a homage to the Atari 1040STE computer and the Noisetracker software!
When I started making music with help of a computer this was my first setup and 'The Noisetracker Sessions' contains the complete collection of tracks that I made with Noisetracker. This is not the high quality music you are used to hear from Peter Andersson. The sounds used in this music is clearly low resolution 8-bit mono. At this point raison d'être existed only in theory, but just a few weeks after working with Noisetracker I bought a multi-timbral synthesizer and used Steinberg 12 software (soon replaced by Steinberg 24 Pro), and that marked the real start of raison d'être.

Dementia was a project by Peter Andersson existing only in 1991. Influences came from EBM, Synthpop, Techno and Industrial. I'm pretty sure this is very weird music for most of us. Anyhow, it is a documentation of a strange moment in the music career of Peter Andersson.
