Hey all,

What a great week so far! I was just boarding an early AM flight at JFK Airport in NYC when i received the great news. I have written songs on two Nr 1 releases in Japan this week (Single chart and DVD chart). Also the latest Girls Generation single, including my co-write "Do the Catwalk" started off at nr 4 on Oricon today and might climb higher during the week. I'm very excited and i feel fortunate to be able to create music in a variety of styles together with very talented people.

This journey has just begun, much more to come! Even though most of you guys and girls are here to study guitar, I'm also hoping that I can inspire a few of you to start writing music of your own. It's really a challenging and rewarding experience.

Regards Andreas
