During That Period He Was Also Strongly Influenced By Jean Michel Jarre And Early 90's Dance Bands Like Dr. Alban Snap And More. A Few Years Later He Found The World Of Midi Music And Understood That This Was The Way To Create The Music He Liked.

He Is Working With This Equipment Till Now. These Days In Addition To Composing Michael Is Learning To Play Piano And Guitar Because He Believes It Is The Bottleneck In His Music Writing.
