Candlestickmaker, by his name Alexandru Seidiu, was born and resides in Craiova, Romania.
The first electronica sounds he’d ever heard and he can recall of were during the early ‘90s – Kraftwerk and Jarre… and Enigma too, thanks to his lovely dad. Not very influenced, though. A decade passed and he can remember staring at Aphex Twin videos – mid ‘90s-to-early-‘00s.
But producing music occurred after an older and wiser friend made for his 18th anniversary a DVD with indie & electro stuff – Wisp, Autechre, Aphex Twin… So, our youngster became interested in various electronica acts – and said: “I can do this shit!”. And eventually asked his older and wiser friend for some piece of software for music creation. The big crash (or clash?) produced and it was called Ableton Live 5.
He released two albums on Upitup Records (http://www.upitup.com/), "Seeds" in 2007 and "A Life in a Day" in 2009. Both albums can be downloadfed for free from Upitup website.
