He began writing his first tune in high school on a simple children's keyboard.

"I've started playing in high school, probably because it was boring, especially in winter. Often beat rhythm that came to mind. (Then Anton was fond of music, The Prodigy, all their music is based on the broken rhythms and could play knocking fingers on the desk.). As the guest of the neighborhood kids I saw a synthesizer and as a joke decided to play of any melody. Strange, but in just a few minutes, I sketched a simple melody based on the beats with your fingers on the desk. Further asked to borrow a synthesizer all week and I practically did not depart from him. I write the music, which at the moment I would like to hear it, but can't find it… and then start writing…"
