Welcome to my completely renewed website! Here you can find all information about my music and other activities. The last decade I spent most of my time as the composer/producer of my own music. Being able and free to do so has resulted in some twenty albums, electronic, psychedelic with electric guitars or a combination of those. Along the way I built my studio, deviced an electric tampoura, made software synthesizer plug-ins, built websites, produced some albums for and with other people. Most of my activities were inside the studio. As a painter and a sculptor, but with sound as his medium, and the studio as his tool. The music I made wasn't intended for live reproduction; it is an art form on itself.

I've jumped from heavy guitar to meditative music, always trying to find new ways, new sounds, inside the environment I created. When I start composing a new piece, I usually have a rough feeling, a sense of atmosphere and colour. But no clear picture of the music. I simply fiddle around a bit and then it starts coming, idea's start flowing, till a point where the music itself tells me how it wants to sound like. An amazing process, in which the whole studio becomes a sound shaping instrument.

"Over the years Leonardo has created a personal universe of organic electronic music. Being independent has made it possible to expand his musical awareness and skills, untouched by commercial motives. The result is an ever flowing stream of music, meandering as a river through an imaginary landscape.
Having a preference for the anologue sounds of the seventies this feel is always inside the music, although time has catched up and integrated the sounds of today as well.
Sometimes flowing into a gentle meditative state, other times active with sequences pounding away, layered with harmonies and outerspace sound effects."
