Bibek:
- When and how you started playing guitar?
Sandeep:
- I started playing guitar in 2004 when I was grade 10. At that I used to listen to rock bands n all and always wished to be
a musician. I was vocalist actually at that time...
We had band in school, n my friend,
Rohan who was guitarist in my band, helped me to start learning guitar...
Bibek: - Beside music what do you
work for?
Sandeep: - I work in Grand bank, in
International trade department and I am also doing my MBA in ACE institute of
management…
Bibek: - Are you supported by your
family and friends as a metal head and a musician?
Sandeep: - Yes, for what I will be now supported for.. I am very much
supported as a musician by my friends and family.
Bibek: - There are many lovers of X-Mantra in Nepal; I would love to
know which X-Mantra’s Guitarist best Nepali band is.

their true Nepali Typical music.. I just love the way they bring a different
felling inside a people by their typical Music.

Paul Gilbert as guitarist...
And there are many bands to whom I
fell in love with haha but I love to take few name like Slipknot, Dream
Theater, Children of Bodom and the so on...
Bibek: - As a musician did you see
metal and rock band has there future here in Nepal?
Sandeep: - Currently, every
musicians are struggling here in Nepal. But it’s in the phase of improvement,
Music scenario and its scope is growing slowly... And we r very close to the
future, when musicians in Nepal will have a proper place here... Where a band
should not be undergrounded and should not play gigs for free... Where the
talent of a musician is cheered up by every people…
Bibek: - How you fell when sound
system are blamed by bands, viewers and even the organiser for bad sound though
they have given their best?
Sandeep: - It’s not a sound system
to be blamed; Bands should have proper knowledge on using the resources that
are provided, as best as they could... Band should be flexible enough to adapt
to any situations that might arise, in Nepal's sound systems...
But Sound system should also give
their best
Both teams play a vital role in
successful output
Bibek: - Which company guitar do you
play?
Sandeep: - Currently I am using
Ibanez rather I would say I always use Ibanez...haha
Bibek: - When you start playing is
there’s good technology which make you a bit easier to learn playing guitar. Like
YouTube, Guitar pro and all stuff which is used while you are learning to play
instrument.
Sandeeo: - Yes, I used Guitar Pro
before I started to learn and various books too, so I would say I have all the
technology from which I am benefited for learning a musical instrument
Bibek: - What problem do you got
when you start your band?
Sandeep: - Time, practice room, and of
course proper gadgets and instruments…Which create too much problem to make band
stable and many good band even deform just because they are not able to manage
all that things..
Bibek: - Normally in people thinks unsuccessful
person and drugs addict join metal and rock. How you feel when you know about
this sort of people thinking?
Sandeep: - I don't smoke nor I take
drugs and that means I am not a Musician...
And there are many metal bands and
musicians who don't even drink too... So people should not think that sort of
thinks and also unsuccessful people joining metal rock show I don’t even have
degree and even a job but what am I... I work, I have my degree and also I a
musician. So all that is just wrong thinking of people…
Bibek: - How you fell when people

It is my proud that people know Sandeep Tuladhar as a Metal band musician not a
Grand Bank worker… haha

of Nepal?
Sandeep: - Yes, we have many tours

musician for some time or you started as a mainstream?

them as well for my instrumental album…Every musician start their carrier as a
underground until and unless they started to grow same thing is with me too…
