Procs

Procs is Mikael Stegman from Stockholm, Sweden. He was born in 1979 and in his early years in school his first music teacher let him play the piano on the breaks. This soon led him into taking piano lessons and he started playing classical music. In the beginning of the 90s he got his first keybord and also a new soundcard which was delivered together with an old DOS based sequencer. He started trying to make all kinds of music with this sequencer, altough, no trance or techno. The only electronic music he heard so far was Jean Michel Jarre, which he was very inspired by in the beginning.
