Биография

"This guy who never played an instrument before found a plastic toy guitar in a dustbin at school and you won't believe what happened next!" I'm Borna Matosic, a composer, producer and guitarist based in Germany, and yes, it all started with a tiny yellow toy guitar made out of plastic that I picked up from my school's dustbin with a single remaining string attached to it. I took it home, fooled around with it and discovered that it sounded more like a sitar than a guitar. So of course the first thing I did was to record a cover version of Panjabi MC's Mundian To Bach Ke! I assure you it was hilarious! Even though that first recording with the toy guitar was nothing more than a joke, I had discovered my interest for guitars and making music. I borrowed an acoustic guitar and tried to play rock and metal songs on it in true Tenacious D fashion, before finally saving enough money to buy a decent electric guitar and amp. My plan was to learn and cover every single song from Iron Maiden's catalog, but as soon as I powered up that amp for the first time, inspiration took over and I started composing my own music instead. The rest is history, as they say! Today I'm equal parts a guitarist and songwriter as well as a media composer, writing music in various styles for films and games. I also produce covers of my favourite soundtracks from time to time. Come follow my journey, as I said: You won't believe what happens next!
