Artist description I, Alf-Martin(Distant Jackal Nitram) make all the music on my computer in my bedroom. I am actually a drummer, but composing is cool. I hope that a lot of people will give me a chance in this business and listen to my tracks. You may ask your self: "WHY THE ODD NAME??" Well, here is the reason: When I was a little boy and lived in India I always heard the jackals out on the fields at night. I often wonderd how it was to be a jackal out on the distant fields. Sometimes I imagined myself as a jackal which was a reflection of me out on the distant fields. WEIRD STORY, HAH??!!

Press Reviews Here are some comments I have gotten:- I really like your music!............- The panning effects on "Down Machapuchare" is great..............- I just had to add "Summer Crashed Down" to my station, because it is a really good ambient track!.................- The main melody on "Ation In China" is very catchy. I am humming it all day long....................- How long before your album is finished??.....................- "Summer Crashed Down" is just brilliant!.....................- "Acid(trip)Jazz" really is groove....................- Hey, you should really compose more "trance-like" music, the ones you have composed so far are cool.
