With Nothing Much To Do In Suburbian Copenhagen He Started Playing Basslines In A Local Techno-Pop Band. Heavily Influenced By Depeche Mode. In 86 He Takes Up Guitar And Changes Direction Into A More Jazz-Rock Influenced Style. The Guitar Seems To Bring A Whole New World Of Sounds Wildness And Sofus Practices A Lot. In 92 The More Raw Energy Seems To Be The Thing And He Forms A Heavy-Funk Band Called Impotators Together With Mads Geertsen Je M’appelle Mads . A Very Energetic Band With A Female Drummer Who Sings Opera Sonic Guitar Assaults Groovy Bass And A Show With No Mercy. After Extensive Touring They Release The Cd – A Perfect Day In 95.
