About Symboter
Symboter (aka Olaf Schirm) was born in 1958 in Berlin, Germany. His influences were the early electronic works by Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze and Kraftwerk. Symboter did publish numerous tracks in the 1980ths on audio tape, his instruments were self built modular analog synthesizers. Later he had legendary instruments such as the Jupiter 4 and 8 by Roland, the Korg KS-10 and SEQ-20, the TR-808, the PPG Wave 2 with Wave Term and many more. He also used the Moog Modular System of composer Gershon Kingsley (Popcorn) for two years. An LP was published (Japotage) with some other musicians. He composed TV trailer music and a movie score, then went into visual effects and into development of sensoric clothes and robots. In the early 2000 he begun again to compose new songs, much more experimental, now mostly software based. He is currently interested in music compositions controlled by sensors and lives in Berlin.
