He also founded the club "netaudio e.V." , which you could check out here:       , together with Raimund Reintjes, Don Ludwig, Antina Michels and others in 2008 to proliferate the networking of netlabels within Berlin and to form a base for the organisation of netaudio festivals.

In October 2009 the festival Netaudioberlin was held at the famous Maria club in Berlin, featuring lectures, discussions and workshops on netaudio-related themes, CC films, dance-performances, the Berlin Wall of Sound project and an extensive night-programme with live appearances by about 100 acts. To my mind, this was the biggest demonstration of the creative potential of the netaudio-scene to this day as Jester say.

He picked and booked the artists for three of the floors (DnB, Hiphop, Triphop/Pop), held two lectures, took part in two discussion-panels and gave a lot of radio-interviews at the festival. What music do he like in "real" life yo may ask ? Many :) "... I listen to all sorts of music, from disco to noise, from classical to electro and whatever else there is around. These days it's a lot of netaudio. My favourite producer must be Comfort Fit and I'm a completely devoted fan of the stuff published by Upitup, like Tracky Birthday, Discoghosts and Drone. 

Monokel have released one of the finest netaudio albums I know on iD.EOLOGY. And there are too many more to even start mentioning them ..." 
So his first steps on Amiga till now always connect him with his love to music. What is he doing in his freetime yoo may think. By all
this work and projects he seems to be a very busy man. Nevertheless he takes his time and in his spare time he like to cook, to watch movies and theatre plays, attend concerts or go to some weird cultural events. 







Musicwise, he is busy with the netlabel, doing concept and A&R work as well as legal stuff. He just have finished working as a booker and speaker for the  Netaudio Festival Berlin 2009. The festival took place from October 8th to 11th at the Maria club in Berlin and featured a massive daytime-programme as well as musical performances by about 100 acts from the international netaudio-scene.

But his demoscene days seems to be over "I'm not a computer lover, really, to me it's just a tool. And I prefer to meet people "offline" over chatting or  mailing with them. I don't go clubbing anymore because I find it pretty boring most of the time. Besides, I cannot stand minimal club music for more than three tracks. I don't really do any music these days, simply because I do not have the time for that. I share a place with my girlfriend but we're not married and I do not have any kids yet." But also family status can change quickly as many of us know ;) Nowadays many of us also have the father role and still have a look to their scene friends and follow the demoscene. Sadly new blood is seldom for a creative hobby for kids these days. Nevertheless we hope that the demoscene will still continue a while and who knows maybe someday a "ittle" Jester could enter the demoscene again.
And in the Future ? What are your plans there Jester ?
"Well, the only thing I'm certain about is that it will be utterly fantastic (<- this was a demoscene-reference, you noticed?)"
