Hey!
My name is Indrek Anteploon aka Artints. I was born in 1985 in Estonia Tallinn.
I started making music/noise around 1998.
My first instrument was my old computer and the first program there was FastTracker 2. Oh the old times. I learned how to record sound samples and how to make ''music'' with the noises that I got.
Few years later I also started playing an electric guitar and put some bands together. On the guitar I didn’t want to learn any famous songs or cover anything.. I came up with my own alternate tuning's and I liked to play around with the guitar pedals/effects.
On SoundCloud I have some of my ''live'' takes that I played at studios, rehearsal spaces or home, plus I post some of my old rehearsals with my bands etc…
They are not perfectly recorded or anything, mostly loosely just those ''live'' situations. Even when doing electronic stuff I switch and play something live there. It's like public sketchbook. I will release artints EP soon, that will be more united, complete sounding .
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
My influences have remained the same over the years. I wouldn’t like to name any particular bands or artists really, but they haven’t changed for me. I think that the main influences will always stay with us. Since I remember myself, I’ve been listening to music made since 1950's up to now. Favourite era's would be 80's and 90's but as i said it depends on times.
I am also influenced alot by singers, lyrics etc…
I usually get inspired by different things along with the season’s change, varying moods, energies etc.
What´s new right now?
Currently, my ''new'' is to finish artints EP first! Hopefully it will happen this year. Also I would really like to make music or noise for some films – student films would be a great start.
