Why 42?
42 originates from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy , a comic science fiction book by British author Douglas Adams, which was made into a film in 2005. This book describes how on a planet far far away a giant computer has been given the task to calculate the ultimate answer to life, the universe and everything. After 7.5 million years the big moment appears where everyone has been waiting for. The - disappointing - answer: 42.

After the book and film were released, there have been countless people who have tried to calculate what the question is that 42 is the answer to. On the internet there are many theories wandering about, such as this. And even if you ask Google what the answer to life is, it says ...

trio42 derived its name from this. Not because we think we are the answer to life. But because we believe music is!
