        This week! I have been mostly eating... silver-bullets


=====! interview !=============================================================

        Session Start: Sat Mar 20 01:06:57 1999

        *** superhoe has joined #demojournal

        <superhoe> Flam!

        <|ps|> hello! so who are you sir?

        <superhoe> Hello my name is dr. green thu.. erm. Erik Lyden
                   prev. known aaaas Carebear/Orange or whatever they called
                   me on the Amiga days ...

        <|ps|> and the question is... what do you do?

        <superhoe> Professional trickery.. music. And I can code a
                   rotate-zoomer.

        <|ps|> wow!!!! rotozoomer!!!! :)

        <superhoe> Yes.. that is pretty impressive

        <|ps|> for how long are you around?

        <superhoe> For how long am I around.. as long as this interview's
                   been complete, at least =D

        <|ps|> i mean in the scene! :P smart-ass

        <superhoe> heehhehe =).. Yeah, it depends.. I was AWARE of the scene
                   in something like 1990-1991 I started making mods with
                   Soundtracker (Amiga) on 1991 or so (forgive me if I
                   remember these wrong, but at least they should be
                   somewhat right) My first party was Assembly'93.. so let's
                   say maybe I was in the scene 'officially' then..

        <|ps|> so that makes... 6 years? :) damn your old! :P how old are
               you actually?

        <superhoe> Yeah, if you start counting from '93.. 6 years.
                   Me? 1 month to 20 years
                   DON'T BRAG ABOUT IT =).. i've always been the youngest in
                   ALL the groups i've belonged in

        <|ps|> whizzkid! :P

        <superhoe> heh, I take that as a compliment..

        <|ps|> so you where all happy the other day about getting a job or
               smtg... care to say something more about that? :)

        <superhoe> Well. That's not a big secret. I happen to be a ugly
                   computer nerd (because I love playing games) So naturally
                   my musician 'career' eventually leads me to making
                   *tanttaramdamdaa* - surprisingly - to make game music
                   You see, making the game music is just great. It's just a
                   neverending pursuit of capturing the feeling that the
                   game/situation requires
                   It can be really challenging.. and therefore very
                   enjoyable

        <|ps|> you getting well paid or thats internal erik lyden stuff?

        <superhoe> I'm afraid it's very much internal. I hate saying that,
                   but it ain't actually up to my decision if to say it or
                   not.. I mean, I hate saying 'it's internal'

        <|ps|> hehe :) so what are your plans scene wise? also internal
               affairs? :)

        <superhoe> My plans.. eh. I knew this would come.. well. If we are
                   talking about my plans, I have some basic things i've been
                   trying to do..

        <|ps|> like...

        <superhoe> First of all, I still want to keep doing good demos, which
                   I myself enjoy watching too. What are beautiful, well done
                   And where is a joy to see your tune used well
                   Just for a greeting, JMagic has done just that in Godog..
                   just mentioning because I think that is maybe the best
                   demo i've ever participated in (imho)
                   .. and, for the second thing

        <|ps|> how many demos have you participated in btw?

        <superhoe> I have no idea. I just noticed few days ago that I don't
                   even have all the tunes i've done left..
                   Naah, there's not 4000+ There's something like.. I just
                   don't know. Demos & intros.. maybe 10-20.. could be more
                   I never actually kept track =)
                   but, for the second thing..
                   The second thing is that.. I still try (besides my
                   limited time) to do something with the 'new' groups as
                   well. Because there is an upcoming talent. This attitude
                   is mainly because of Blasphemy.. I'm not saying that
                   Blasphemy necessarily are 'newcomers', but when I made
                   music to 'Louis Lane'.. I actually did it blind-folded,
                   I had never heard about the group. I just wanted to try
                   And the demo turned out very good, I liked it myself very
                   much, and it seems that so did the 'great public'.. hello
                   boys =) (& girls)

        <|ps|> you know you are gonna get flooded with musical requests now
               don't you? :)

        <superhoe> Yes.. but as I said, I try to keep up with the 'new'
                   talent. My time is limited, and I don't do many modules
                   nowadays.. For the last year, every .XM i've made has
                   been more or less 'tailored' for something.. made upon
                   request. So if that tune request flood comes, let me then
                   add something - If I refuse, that is mainly because I
                   don't have time.. Inspiration is sometimes limited too.

        <|ps|> so what about your life? what else do you besides doing
               game-music? :)

        <superhoe> Me? Well.. my life is pretty basic. I study a bit (very
                   little actually).. love my gf and in the summer, I let
                   some steams out with my in-line skates. I drink coffee,
                   I scratch my cat, I enjoy social moments with my friends.
                   And I love Thousand Island salad dressing.

        <|ps|> salad dressing? :P

        <superhoe> Yeah.. it's that stuff when you slice some vegetables out
                   and put that thing on top of 'em to make them taste better

        <|ps|> humm sounds interesting! :P

        <superhoe> Well.. what could I say =)

        <|ps|> what are your musician influences? games? :)

        <superhoe> I don't actually have a lot of influences. I've been
                   asked this zillions of times and I'm always forced to
                   answer: I don't know.
                   If I must name some influences, I have to say something
                   strange.. my influence is life in general

        <|ps|> like what? little things in life?

        <superhoe> For example, I drove a 150km+ from Helsinki to Tampere..
                   all the way 120km/h-180km/h.. then I came home

        <|ps|> yes...

        <superhoe> Blam. Then I made some really fast beats. And all the way
                   I drove the car, I hummed some really fast basslines and
                   banged the steering wheel with the beats..
                   That's a good example of my influences =)..

        <|ps|> hehehe and you didnt crashed? :P

        <superhoe> Nooo.. of course not. I never do =)
                   (knock on the wood, yeah =D)

        <|ps|> :P [ed: dont try this at home kids!!!]
               do you listen to much tracked music by others?

        <superhoe> Hmm.. good question. In case no. Maybe I should..
                   I listen to others' tracks sometimes But very seldom
                   I'm too lazy to download, and there's a way too much
                   artists.. when I listen to others, I usually listen to
                   old Amiga 4-ch's from my very own A1200 HD

        <|ps|> do you listen to commercial music?

        <superhoe> Commercial.. well, yeah.. I am a music freak after all..
                   and I do love listening to music. In case i'm one of
                   those persons who listen to music all the time =)

        <|ps|> name some

        <superhoe> Hmm. I have a wide range.. if the music is well done,
                   almost everything goes.. Jarre, Beck, Beastie Boys, A
                   Tribe Called Quest (and all _good_ hip hop in general)
                   70's soul =)
                   Orbital.. Fluke.. Chemical Brothers

        <|ps|> sounds like a regular musical junkie to me! :)

        <superhoe> Lots of trip hop in general. Yeah, I confess =)

        <|ps|> what about demo wise. you like viewing demos? what are your
               favorites?

        <superhoe> I don't have a too fast machine myself.. I seldom watch
                   demos. But some rare pieces I do watch, and of course the
                   ones i've participated in making. I can't say what is my
                   favourite.. demos are so many as well

        <|ps|> cammon... say some names! :)

        <superhoe> Just the same thing as in the music.. I just can't say
                   what is my favourite.. sorry, I must be a difficult person
                   to interview =D
                   Well. Coma has things that are original. Liked 'em for
                   years - and worked with Virne as well, because of that
                   Not just because i'm a member, Komplex is my all time
                   favourite (especially from the Amiga)
                   HiRMU: Muna is absolutely amazing

        <|ps|> ok, so lets go into pixels! you view some pics occasionally or
               also no?

        <superhoe> No.. never =) I can't recall if i've ever dl'd any pics
                   since '97 =).. I enjoy my pixels mostly in the demos hehe
                   I can't draw at all

        <|ps|> then what are you doing on #pixel all the time?

        <superhoe> Well, I guess 5% of the ppl on #pixel are actually
                   graphicians.. heh.. I care about the people, not the
                   profession.

        <|ps|> uhhhhhhhh are we getting filosophical? :)

        <superhoe> Of course not.. or who knows, maybe nothing is true,
                   except the truth itself, which doesn't exist after all

        <|ps|> oh dear! lets change subject! :P

        <superhoe> Hihii

        <|ps|> arg! i dont know anything to ask. er... did you ever killed a

=====! demo !==================================================================

        Jumpy! by Digital Murder (party-version)
        Found at www.scene.org
        2nd place at the Volcanic 5 party

        System requirements:
        (Wow! A nfo-file WITH requirements listed! :))
        Pentium 120, 32MB RAM, 11MB HD (!)
        Dos: Vesa2.0 or univbe.
        Win9x/NT: DirectX 2.0 (5.0 preferred)
        A Linux version is available but not included in the party-release.

        The demo:
          Like most of today's demos, this one has a lot of 3D. Aside from a
        few pictures, one could even say this is 100% 3D. Is this a bad
        thing? Well, it depends on the quality of the 3D, isn't it? And
        luckily, the quality of Jumpy!'s 3D IS above average. After a
        film-like intro (Group-presents-demo in space), we see a skysurfer
        falling from the sky. This is done _very_ well: the movements are
        realistic, the man is not composed of blocks or cylinders but is
        almost real, the textures are clearly larger then the average
        256*256... Sometimes a TV-effect is used, looks like an interlaced
        videomode. I don't like those horizontal lines, but I've to admit it
        brings some variation, and it's used sparsely. In the next 3D scene
        the same man does a bungee jump from a mountain bridge. Whoaaa!
        Impressive! And with those short slogans ...( Temptation always
        finds a way! )

          A very strange blur-zoom effect dives into a woman's eye, to the
        earth, to an island. (Hmm, OK. There ARE 2D-effects too.) I expected
        another 3D-scene, playing at an island, but we get some very good
        pictures instead. The greetings follow in several cool fonts, while
        we fly through some tunnels, ending in space. This part breaks with
        the atmosphere from the previous parts. And the next 3D part is even
        more different: a baby dancing at a stage with lots of mirrors around
        him. The last part can run as a stand-alone part of the demo. It
        features a drummer, playing a long drum solo, with lots of effects
        like vertical blur, inverted colors, the TV-effect ...  By changing
        the drum-module, you can control the drummer. Somehow I feel this
        part is too long, and I think the drummer is less realistic then the
        other characters, but maybe that's because the camera moves much
        closer. The pictures are well done: a logo (visible for 1/2 second),
        some retouched photos (I think) of the skysurfer & the bungee-jumper,
        a very good grayscale face & leg, and a "cover" from some advert: a
        girl with angel's wings.

        The Music:
          Starting slowly during the intro, the music quickly changes to
        techno, lots of fast beats, but with enough melody to keep it good.
        Not much synchronizing, but it follows the speed of the demo
        perfectly. Apart from a short break during the pictures, the same
        style is kept till the drum-part. I don't really like the drum-solo,
        but as I'm no musician, I don't pretend to be able to do it better.
        And hey, it's perfectly synced to the movement of the drummer :)

        Worth the download:
          Yes. Especially if you like fast-paced demos, or when you want to
        see a drummer play your self-made drum-mod (XM, actually). The only
        serious drawback (IMHO) is the "feeling": the whole first part
        (until the tunnel) evokes a feeling of freedom, skysurfing &
        bungee-jumping, looking for kicks... The greeting-tunnel is already
        different, and the baby really doesn't fit with the rest. Another
        thing is the big size: 11 Meg is quite a lot. Tip: delete
        jumpywin.exe & midas.dll, it saves about a Meg. After all, this demo
        deserves full-screen, so who needs a window?
                                                                        Seven


=====! intro !=================================================================

        Nocturnal: Mind over Matter (Hype '99 democateghory 3rd.)

          Yeah man belive me, only this intro is worth to download from this
        party, if you wanna see good design, wanna hear mindfucking music,
        and the usual code! I thought if Nocturnal than Lone Wolf made again
        some ambient stuff, he didn't so Xhale made asskickin basses, and
        rock my speakers to their end! Really good work, congratulation! And
        the colors and everything fit's - a little bad mooded intro, but
        i'am in bad mood too now, hehh.
          Other good production from the party the Replay demo.
        (as always. =) [hi baloo and goofy. =)]

=====! music !=================================================================

        'Streets of Budapest' / Carlos jazz quartet

          Hey! I wanna present to you a great module in very rare style -
        free jazz. To be honest I've never heard such a unique tune on the
        scene. The best thing - samples. They are perfectly matched and sound
        wonderful. The piano gives character to this tune. The drums
        accompanying the piano are very interesting. Bass - this is beautiful
        too (played on contrabass). After some improvisation on piano, there
        is a main theme played on saxophone. In the background, you can also
        hear piano. (Eh... piano, piano... it is everywhere :)) Next thing...
        improvisation on the bass (a bit accompanied with drums). The main
        part - theme played by all instruments together. And that's the end.

          The tune isn't very long, so you surely won't get bored. I
        recommend this module to all people who appreciate a good jazz and
        improvisation.

 Sylvia Krasnieski was born in San Francisco, California, as the daughter of
 a Polish father and a half-French, half-Italian mother. Right now she is 24
 years old and one of the world's top models. "Actually I wanted to study
 art", she says. "But when I won the Supermodel contest some years ago, I
 decided I had no other choice than to start a professional model career. Now
 I am mainly a model but use as much of my spare time as possible to study."
 We asked her where she got the energy to be a model and study at the same
 time. In a mysterious voice, she answered: "I got it from my leisure
 activities when I was still at highschool. This gave me the happiness and
 motivation I need for my career." Being asked for details, Sylvia says: "I
 spent as much time as possible going out with my friends. And whenever I was
 alone, I used to read my Hugi."

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

 Peter Rosenthal was born in New York City as the son of a Jewish father and
 a half-German, half-British mother. Right now he is 21 years old and already
 the director of the one of the world's leading software companies. "Our
 success comes from an innovative software engineering tool called NeuroCode,
 whose development I have already started when I was at highschool. It makes
 programming much easier because of its artificial intelligence. You just
 have to implement the basic concepts, and then the program will do
 everything for you based on your dialogue with it. In other words, you talk
 to the intelligent program. And it anticipates your wishes." We asked him
 where he got the inspiration for this innovation. He said, "I used to
 discuss all kinds of problems with my friends. In this way I got a lot of
 ideas. And whenever I was alone, I used to read my Hugi."

                  RIPPED GRAPHICS IN HUGI #14: THE TRUE STORY

                              ( Adok/Hugi )

          Since I get a lot of spam via e-mail, I am accustomed to delete
        every mail looking like spam immediately. It was only pure chance
        that I did not delete the  mail I got from the webmaster of a
        porn-site on Sunday, March 14th. The subject caught my attention. It
        was: "Stolen Artwork". Unbelievable! What does a porn-site have to do
        with artwork? I began to read.

          "Some of my artwork was stolen and used in your issue #14. Can
        you please direct me to the appropriate person that can rectify this
        problem? I want my artwork REMOVED from your e-mag."

          Was that a new kind of spam? Or was it meant seriously? How did an
        ominous porn-site-webmaster get Hugi? What artwork could be ripped
        from a porn-site? We have never published any porn-picture in Hugi.

          In order to ensure that the mail was serious, I replied with the
        following: "Of  course [I will remove the stolen 'artwork']. But you
        have to tell me who you are and what exact 'artwork' you mean. How
        can you prove that you are its creator? As soon as I have got your
        answer, I will contact the author immediately."

          On the next day I got the reply. It turned out that the webmaster
        of the ominous porn site was DaVinci of iCE. Everyone who has some
        knowledge of the art-scene  knows  what iCE is. It is a huge
        art-group. DaVinci, one of many members, creates pixel graphics using
        Photoshop. My interest was arisen. I took an extensive look at his
        personal homepage and realized that the logo on the navigation page
        was quite similar to the winning picture in the Hugi Logo Competition
        by DARKflare/ActiveFuel. The border was identical, and the background
        of DARKflare's picture was an image in the "Lightening Tutorial" at
        DaVinci's homepage. For me, there was no doubt that the roots of the
        contest-winning picture were here.

          On his "Rip-Off" page, DaVinci showed a screenshot of DARKflare's
        picture. The text below said: "This piece of stolen artwork is the
        winning entry for a splash screen contest for HUGI DISK MEGA ZINE.
        HUGI14. FEB99 http://home.pages.de/~hugidownload/ Despite my begging
        and pleading, the thief stole my DaVinci logo from this site, chopped
        out the inside, used the lightening images from my lightening
        tutorial (he didn't even make his own), then he ripped off the name
        bar from my Fravia logo to put the name 'HUGI disk magazine' on. The
        artist credited for this mess is Darkflare of ActiveFuel. He even
        signed his name on the lower left corner. [...] If you're wondering
        why I'm uptight about my artwork, here is the reason why."

          The next step for me to do was to contact DARKflare and inform him
        on the matter. I could not believe anyone would risk sending stolen
        graphics to Hugi, as our Legal Stuff section clearly states that all
        contributions "have to be free of third-party-rights".

          A few hours later I got DARKflare's answer, which he had also sent
        to DaVinci. He showed great concern. He admitted not having made the
        picture all by himself but having used some of DaVinci's images.
        However, he said that he had been given permission to use the
        graphics by a "fake DaVinci".

          Since it was now obvious that this picture had violated
        third-party-rights, I disqualified it from the logo competition and
        removed it from Hugi.

          In this way the other places moved up by one. Luminos/MAC was now
        the true winner of the competition. His picture was used as the
        closing picture in the new version of Hugi #14. I uploaded Hugi #14
        v1.1 on March 17th and announced it in several newsgroups.

          At this occasion I want to appeal to everyone once again that
        every contribution to Hugi has to be free of third-party-rights.
        This spares us all a lot of trouble and work.

          With this, I want to officially apologize to DaVinci.

                                                                  - adok^hugi

        DaVinci's reply


          [editor: i contacted davinci asking if he had anything to say...
        he has! :) and here it is...]

          ps: thanks for your note. I guess what I'd like to say is that I'm
        happy to have received cooperation from both adok and the group
        ActiveFuel. Both were embarassed by this incident, and the whole
        thing is most unfortunate.

          What's really a shame is that Darkflare does not have the courage
        to confess to stealing my work, but instead says he received
        permission from "a fake DaVinci".  That's ridiculous because he
        knows me, knows that I'm in #phrozencrew on Efnet, and knows where
        my site is and how to contact me. Anyway, he must now suffer the
        penalty for his actions, and his name is forever ruined in the art
        scene community. He has proven to be untrustworthy, a thief, and a
        liar.

          In closing I would like to thank the thousands of visitors to my
        site who know my work and report back to me when they see it used
        without my permission. If someone rips me, they will get caught.
        It's not a question of IF, but a question of WHEN. We should all
        work together and learn from each other instead of ripping each
        other's work. It is in the spirit of fellowship and of sharing our
        techniques that we all grow and improve together.

        Best regards,
                                                 DaVinci [iCE / Phrozen Crew]

        Subject: MAZ: TW98 voting / 2800$ prices!
        Date: Tue, 16 Mar 1999 00:31:35 +0100
        From: maz <maz@fh-zwickau.de>

        Hi there!

        Good news, MAZ proudly presents:

        ! Vote for your favourite song @ tracked worx '98 !

         There's a price-pool of stuff worth 500$ for the voters (an original
        GUS PnP with Interwave for instance) and prices worth 2300 US$ for
        the three winning artists/groups, sponsored by TerraTec, RME
        Intelligent Audio Solutions and by the german Hoontech distributor
        RIDI multimedia.

          Since I saw damn lame people at demo parties who personally tried
        to convince all people they know to vote for their crap (in this
        case) instead of respecting the work of the other crews as well as
        they want to see the own work respected:

          Please support good artists who actually DESERVE to get the prices
        in your opinion! Don't vote for the lamest song because you think
        this will help pushing your own one to top - you waste the power of
        your vote.

          Uhh, another "lame people" thing: Users have reported two songs of
        the TW98 CD, which are an obvious 99% rip of another song (which I
        didn't know, shame on me), in both cases the songtext clearly claims
        it's an own creation. I will release a "list" with the names of songs
        and author names in the next days at my NEWS-page. Of course those
        guys will be happily disqualified from voting and winning.

          If you think you could be one of those two guys, just contact me
        BEFORE I put your name online.

          OK, the voting sheet and pics/descriptions of all prices are online
        at http://www.maz-sound.com/vote/ or for the europeans at
        http://www.fh-zwickau.de/~maz/vote/
