Jesper Skaaning (a.k.a. Acustic) is a Danish electronic musician, producer and film composer. He started his career as a guitarist in various experimental punk bands in the early 1980s and was inspired by European electropop and early electronic music, especially Kraftwerk. At that time he formed a band, Acustisk Ungdom, from which he later took his name.
He formed Future 3 with Anders Remmer (a.k.a. Dub Tractor) and Thomas Knak (a.k.a. Opiate) in 1994. He is also a member of People Press Play and Jesper & Anders, also known as Recycler 202.
