Judge for Radoslav Zdravkovic

My name is Radoslav. I am guitar player and composer from Serbia. I started to play acoustic guitar at the age of 15, influenced by my cousin Nikola. Later I switched to electric guitar. During high school days I was trying to form a rock band, but I didn't succeed. So, I had my first live performance with band at the age of 21, in 2007. The same year I joined band called Mama Rock, which was very popular in ex Yugoslavia at the end of 70'a and the begining of 80's. They even collaborated with Goran Bregovic, famous serbo-croatian composer. Honestly, I've never been satisfied with my playing in a band and because of that I've decided to quit playing live and start making instrumental music with music software. I wrote my first compositions at the begining of 2009. In spring 2009. I won an award for composition called Galilei (I was lucky, in jury there were not musicians, only astronomers and physicists) :D That award really motivated me to continue working on my compositions and last summer I made three tracks for TV shows. Now I'm working on soundtrack for online comics book.

Gear and software

I compose my music with cheap Ibanez GSA60. My favourites programs for writing my music are Fruity Loops 9 and Guitar Pro 4. I use a lot of VSTi's like Miroslav Philharmonik, EZdrummer, NI B4, NI Absynth, Massive, Arturia Minimoog... My sound card is M-audio Audiophile 2496.
