Mission: Trying to find the ultimate question to live, the universe and 42. ABOUT ME Besides the description in here, you can find me on wordpress, facebook, twitter, youtube, pinterest, myspace and scribd among others. Username is always "Alfred Raddatz". The myspace music-profile is myspace.com/dancefloordiktator. My homepage is alfredraddatz.org Oh and did I mention music? I surely did, because it's what I really like. Making music, listening to music, reading, talking, thinking about music. And apart from that? Well I think using my hands for mechanical, electronical and organic constructions (such as wooden boxes for DIY electronic instruments or furniture including LED lamps) and being open to what adventures are waiting out there every day.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I want this project to be a "beautiful idea come true". So practically I participate in hosting people, helping them find their way in places and skills I know and make them laugh. The last bit is maybe the most important.
Music, Movies, and Books
I can't really exclude any kind of music, so I just state to like all of it (some more, some less). More: Soul, Electronica, Jazz, Funk, Rock, Reggae, Mbira, Shamisen, Bal-Folk, Klezmer, Tango, Hip Hop... Less: "Volkstรผmliche Musik", Gangster Rap
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I've seen the stars. Just like standing in the middle of nowhere and looking up, but that's still impressive everytime you do it.
Teach, Learn, Share
Offering framedrumming techniques from North Africa to Persia, skills in electronic music and soldering, knowledge about historical music from Europe and transatlantic music connections between Africa and South America. Oh yes, and sharing music of course. Not in large quantity but in selected bits.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Joy and wisdom.
My Interests
Music. People. Machines. Words. Tea. Coffee. Traveling.
