This is just a simple page which enables you to download the modules by me,
Curt Cool of Depth, aka Frank E. Larsen.
I was born in 1976 near Copenhagen, Denmark, and since 1992, I have been involved in the demoscene and composed quite a lot of music on Amiga in ProTracker 2.3 and AHX Sound System as well as later on PC using Milkytracker, ReNoise, GoatTracker (for c64 stuff) etc.. I am a member of the C64/Amiga demoscene, and my modules vary between almost every style imaginable, though I guess most of my tunes can be categorized as chipmusic - which is kind of a specialist taste. I try to focus on the melodies and harmonies in the tune, rather than the sound, which is probably the reason why I have made so many chiptunes. I am also involved in preserving Amiga music in AMP - links below. I also used to be a diskmagazine editor and a swapper. And I am still, I suppose, the organizer of the scenegroup Depth.
I also have a masters degree in Danish literature & language and media science and do some creative writing of various kinds - hopefully some of which will reach the public one day.
Personally, I live in Copenhagen with my girlfriend, son (born 2009) and daughter (born 2013).
The tunes have been sorted chronologically in order for the listener to be able to track the development of my music skills (or avoid the early, crappy stuff). Download links below:
Modules from

In order to play the .MOD-files properly on Microfascist PC'ER MED WINDOOOOOWS, you need either 8bitbubsys superb Protracker port, XMPlay or the OldSkool MOD-plugin for WinAMP. On Amiga, most .MOD replayers will do, on other platforms, well, go figure something out yourself, eh? :) Also, there's some .xm files, those are pretty common, so...
The .AHX files can be replayed with XMPlay as well, using the right plugins. Whereas the one Pretracker file needs Pretracker, and C64 SID-files needs SIDPlay.
I am affiliated with Depth, Hoaxers, Nah-Kolor, Bitworld and AMP. At AMP, you can find thousands of other mods (by other composers) as well as the above ones.
Should you wish to contact me, maybe for a chat or if you want me to compose something for you and whatever you are working on, or if you live in Copenhagen or nearby and want to do some sort of cooperation - I've been writing some "real" songs lately with lyrics - a band would most probably skyrocket my motivation - feel free to write to me at

Yeah, the above contained some Danish language - smart people like you figure it out, right?
While waiting for that, you could go to my YouTube channel for immediate satisfaction (?!?!?). Some more professionally sounding remixes of my tracks are also available at my Soundcloud.
I also have a personal website (with a view to some sort of business – which reminds me, should you wish to for some reason to use any of my music for anything, please contact me and we’ll figure something out).
If you just happen to have googled your way to this page and don't know anything about this here demoscene thing, excellent explanations can be found at WikiPedia.
Greetings to all my friends in and out of the scene - should any old pals read this, feel free to write.
