KABUTO/TITAN ON THE KEYS!..
SO ALIEN ASKED WHETHER I COULD DO A MEGADRIVE ADAPTION FOR THE MUSIC DISC.
IT WAS A HELL OF A WORK TO SQUEEZE 4 CHANNEL MOD/AHX MIXING AT 26 KHZ OUT
OF A MEGADRIVE, WITHOUT THE HELP OF PAULA'S HARDWARE ACCELERATION...
AND THEN HAVE JUST 10% CPU TIME LEFT FOR EVERYTHING ELSE. BUT IT'S WORKING
FINE, AND IT'S ALWAYS FUN TO WORK WITH OTHERS ON A PROJECT LIKE THIS.
c ORIGO AT THE KEYS THEN... bWELL WHAT CAN I SAY ?
THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE PHATTEST PROD I HAVE EVER TAKEN PART OF.
THE UTTERLY AWESOME EFFORT PUT INTO THE SONGS
JUST MAKES MY MIND EXPLODE.. I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO ALL OF THEM, FOR HOURS AND
HOURS NOW, AND THEY STILL ARE JUST FRICKIN AMAZING... BEING THE CHIP-NERD I AM
IT'S BECOMING ALMOST PAINFUL TO LISTEN TO THE ORIGINAL SONGS ..
I HAVE TO ADMIT THAT I DID NOT QUITE PROPERLY
CONSIDER THE CONSEQUENCES WHEN AGREEING TO CODE THE AMIGA VERSION, BUT
FRANKLY, EVERY SECOND HAS BEEN A PLEASURE, AND EVERYONE INVOLVED HAS REALLY
COME THROUGH!
THE ONE POINT I AM DISAPPOINTED WITH IS THAT EVEN THO WE CAN MAKE AHX SONGS RUN
ON AN EXPANDED A500, THERE WOULD BE LITTLE ROOM FOR ANYTHING ELSE. THIS MEANS YOU
HAVE TO GET AN A600 OR A1200 TO PLAY THE AHX TUNES ON A REAL AMIGA, OTHER THAN
THAT, YOU CAN ALWAYS GO CHECK OUT THE HTML VERSION TO LISTEN TO THE AHX SONGS.
BIG SHOUT OUT TO ALL MY BROTHERS IN
c INSANE dc
c YOU RULE dc
b ALSO A BIG THANKS TO ALL ACTIVE OLDSCHOOL PEEPS THAT KEEP THE SCENE ROCKIN! ...ORIGO OUT.
...AND NOW A FEW WORDS FROM THE HTML5/CODEF SCIENTIST, MELLOW MAN....
YO! HOPE YOU GUYS IN 'BROWSER LAND' ARE ENJOYING STUCK SOMEWHERE IN TIME!!!
SPOT CONTACTED ME AFTER SEEING MY OLD-SKOOL DEMOSCENE REMAKES ON THE CODEF
FACEBOOK PAGE..... HE PUT OUT THE SUGGESTION FOR THIS COOL DEMO, AND I WAS HAPPY
TO BE INVOLVED.... AND AFTER SEEING MY EFFORTS, I WAS REWARDED BY BEING RECRUITED INTO
THE RANKS OF UP ROUGH.... SO I HOPE YOU LIKE MY FIRST UP ROUGH PRODUCTION! NEXT UP, IT'S
TIME FOR SOME ADDITIONAL CREDITS..... CODEF LIBS - NONAMENO....
MUSIC PLAYBACK LIB - FIREHAWK.... JS REPLAYER BUGFIXED BY 8BITBUBSY....

KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
c (451) HERE! dc
b WOW MY BANGOVER HURTS SO BAD AFTER FINISHING THIS TUNE!
RIPPED MOST OF MY HAIR OFF AND GOT BOTH SQUARE EYES AND TINNITUS
BUT WHO CARES WHEN THERE'S AN IRON MAIDEN TRIBUTE COMING UP!?!!?!??
(GETTING IN A BIT OF A SENTIMENTAL MOOD HERE) MY LIFE BEGAN WHEN I WAS 15,
STARTED TRACKING, SKATEBOARDING AND LISTENING TO IRON MAIDEN PROBABLY THE SAME SUMMER.
USED TO COMBINE SKATEBOARDING AND NEW WAVE OF BRITISH HEAVY METAL A LOT
BUT FOR SOME REASON NEVER COMBINED TRACKING AND MAIDEN BEFORE
SO WHEN GOTO80 ASKED ME IF I WANTED TO BE A PART OF THIS TRIBUTE
AND BE ABLE TO DO A VERSION OF MY FAVORITE IRON MAIDEN SONG 4 LIFE
c I C R A P P E D M Y P A N T S
b WITH ANTICIPATION! !! !
A BIG THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO MADE THIS HAPPEN!
REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO GETTING ALL MY HEAVY METAL GEAR ON,
GET SHITFACED AND BE OBLITERATED BY THIS MONSTER OF IRON MAIDEN MAYHEM!
EDDIE LIVES!
c ACEEES HIIIIIIGHHHYAYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!
b ALRIGHT,
GOTO80 ON THE KEYBOARD! DRENCHED IN BLOOD. WITH SPIKES ON THE SPACE KEY
AND DRAGONS ON THE SHIFT-KEYS
THIS WILL BE A SWEET RIDE
b I'M HAPPY THAT WE MANAGED TO GET THIS PROJECT TOGETHER IN THE END - SOME MAD EFFORTS FROM
A BUNCH OF PEOPLE AROUND SATAN'S WORLDS ACTUALLY, I'M QUITE SURPRISED THAT SO MANY
COMPUTER PEOPLE LOVE IRON MAIDEN SO MUCH. I HAVE TO ADMIT, I'M MORE FAMILIAR WITH
ANTON MAIDEN THAN IRON MAIDEN SO MY VERSION OF RUN TO THE HILLS MIGHT BE MORE SIMILAR
TO HIS VERSION THAN THE ORIGINAL WHICH MIGHT BE A GOOD THING .. I TRIED OUT
THE SONG AT A FESTIVAL I PLAYED IN FINLAND, AND THE RESPONSE WAS QUITE OVERWHELMING
ALL THE MEN AND WOMEN THREW THEIR UNDERWEAR AT ME A CREW OF LEATHER DWARFS STARTED TO
FIGHT WITH SWORDS SATAN'S CHAOS EMERGED SUDDENLY LIGHTNING STRUCK
THUNDER TWO PEOPLE IN THE CROWD WERE HIT AS IT TURNED OUT, THEY WERE NOT SPIES
FROM ANCIENT TIMES LURING NON-SUSPECTING BYSTANDERS INTO A BRIGHT LIGHT PAST
BUT JUSTICE WAS MADE AND THE AMIGA DISK DRIVE STARTED TO PLAY THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST
IT WAS A WILD SUCCESS IN DEATH AND HORROR JUST THE WAY WE LIKE IT
WE ARE SATAN'S PEOPLE
c AAMIIIIIIIIIIIGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
c 6 6 6 dc
c ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!!
c ALIEN / PDX dc
b HEADBANGING YA KEYBOARD FOR YOUR PLEASURE! FIRST OF ALL I'M RESPONSIBLE
FOR THE METAL AS FUKK PICTURE OF EDDY AND SOME OF THE LOGOS U SEEING HERE... ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR
THE MEGADRIVE PORT WITH FELLOW CODER KABUTO OF TITAN... SO THATS THE BORING STUFF! NOW I GREW UP WITH
MAIDEN... OK, I WAS SIX WHEN THE FIRST MAIDEN ALBUM 'KILLERS' GOT RELEASED... AND I ACTUALLY DIDN'T HEAR IT
UNTIL, LIKE 6 YEARS LATER... SO, MY TEENAGE YEARS WHERE MAIDEN...
c EXCEPT.. dc
b NOT FOR REALLY LONG THOUGH ..AS SOON AS I GOT INTRODUCED TO GRINDCORE..
c WELL... dc
b I TURNED INTO A GRINDCORE BEAST.. I'M RUINED WITH DEATHMETAL
AND CYBERGRIND, PORNOCORE AND BRUTAL SLAM DISCO.. HOWEVER.. MAIDEN IS STILL IN MY PLAYLIST FROM TIME
TO TIME.. TRACKS LIKE ACES HIGH.. POWERSLAVE.. NUMBER OF THE BEAST.. NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES U HEARD
THEM..THEY NEVER GET BORING.. MY GIRLFRIEND IS VERY OPEN MINDED.. SHE LOVES ALL KIND OF MUSIC.. EXCEPT 2
STYLES.. HEAVY METAL.. AND CHIPSONGS!! SO THIS DISC WILL DRIVE HER INSANE, WHEN I WILL BE BLASTING IT OVER
THE STEREO FOR 24-7. IT WILL BE GLORIOUS! ALIEN / PDX SINGING OFF, PREPARE FOR THE NEXT HEAVY METAL HIPPY RIGHT NOW!
... CORPSICLE/INSANE ON THE KEYS. I WAS HONOURED TO GET ASKED TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS PRODUCTION
FOR SEVERAL REASONS. THE MAIN REASON BEING THAT I'VE LOVED IRON MAIDEN SINCE I WAS A WEE LAD.
ONE OF THE FIRST ALBUMS I OWNED WAS PIECE OF MIND, SHORTLY AFTER CAME KILLERS. SO FOR THIS PROD
I CHOSE TWO SONGS FROM THOSE ALBUMS TO MAKE COVERS OF. IT'S BEEN GREAT FUN MAKING THESE TRACKS
AND REALISING THAT I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO MAKE NICE AMIGA CHIPMOD SOUNDS. OH WELL, I THINK BITS
OF THE TUNES TURNED OUT REALLY WELL IN THE END ANYWAY. OBVIOUSLY I HAVE SOME GREETZ ASWELL...
SYS5 .. TOTAL CHAOS .. HELLBEARD .. ELEND .. MANU .. CDETH .. EVERYONE IN THE DEMOSCENE ...
DID I FORGET ANYONE ? OH, AND .. UP THE IRONS! MYGG/INSANE TAKING OVER THE KEYBOARD...
WELL I REALLY DONT HAVE ANY RELATION TO IRON MAIDEN AS A GROUP, I HAVE NEVER ACTUALLY LISTENED TO THEM,
BUT WHEN SPOT ASKED ME IT WAS A EASY DECISION. THE TUNE BLOOD BROTHER I HAD NEVER HEARD BEFORE,
BUT AFTER SOME LISTENING I STARTED TO LIKE IT. I ALSO DECIDED TO MAKE A TUNE THAT WAS NOT EQUAL TO THE
ORIGINAL, MAKE A 'MYGG-VERSION'. SO IT ENDED UP WITH A REGGAE VERSION. HOPE YOU LIKE IT! THANKS FOR
LETTING ME BE A PART OF THIS NICE MUSIC DISC.
HEYA THERE, TRIACE RAPING THE KEYS. PEOPLE WHO KNOW ME MAY BE WONDERING HOW I POSSIBLY COULD CONTRIBUTE TO
SOME KIND OF METAL CHIP PROJECT, BUT HEY: I LISTENED TO THAT STUFF QUITE MUCH 'BACK THEN'....THANKS AND
MANY GREETS TO THE WHOLE UP ROUGH, INSANE AND TITAN POSSE'S FOR BRINGING THIS COOL TRIBUTE TO LIFE... GREAT
EFFORT AND THANKS FOR ASKING ME TO ADD MY FIVE CENTS TO THIS DISC.... PERSONAL GREETS (IN NO ORDER) TO ALL

c JERRY/DESIRE dc
b ON THE KEYS! .. I HAVE BEEN AN IRON MAIDEN FAN SINCE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AND HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE
OF WATCHING THEM LIVE THREE TIMES HERE IN MY HOMETOWN, BERGEN, THE LAST TIME JUNE THIS YEAR DURING THE MAIDEN
ENGLAND TOUR 2014. I HAVE BEEN GOING AROUND WITH SOME IDEAS TO DO SOME MAIDEN COVERS THE PAST YEAR, AND ALSO
AND WAS INVITED TO CONTRIBUTE SOME TUNES, WHICH I WAS MORE THAN WILLING TO DO DESPITE TIME CONSTRAINTS :) ..
IT WAS DIFFICULT PICKING THE SONGS, BUT I ENDED UP WITH DOING ONE OF THE MORE RECENT ONES, AN AHX VERSION OF
'FACE IN THE SAND' (ONLY THE SECOND AHX I COMPLETE IN ABOUT 12+ YEARS OR SO), SO I WAS A LITTLE BIT RUSTY WITH
THE AHX TECHNIQUES. IT'S A QUITE LENGTHY AND COMPREHENSIVE SONG, AND I'VE AIMED AT DOING IT PRECISELY AS THE
ORIGINAL, MAKING IT A PAINSTAKING ENDEAVOR, THUS I HAVE SPENT QUITE A FEW HOURS ON IT, AND HAVE NEVER USED SO
MANY TRACKS (AROUND 200) OR INSTRUMENTS (30) IN AN AHX TUNE BEFORE.
I ALSO PLANNED TO DO A PROTRACKER MODULE VERSION OF 'THE WICKER MAN'ù, BUT WAS THEN ASKED TO DO A ONE OF THE OLD
CLASSICS INSTEAD AS SOMEBODY PULLED OUT OF THE PROJECT, AND THE CHOICE THEN NATURALLY FELL ON 'THE NUMBER OF THE
BEAST', ONE OF MY FIRST MAIDEN MEMORIES, AND ONE OF THE TRULY GREAT CLASSICS. THIS IS ALSO QUITE A COMPREHENSIVE
SONG WITH CHANGE OF PACE AND BEAT, ALTHOUGH NOT AS LONG AS THE FIRST ONE I DID, IT STILL TOOK A LOT OF HOURS TO
DO IN THE EVENINGS AFTER THE KIDS WERE SLEEPING :)
I HAVE BEEN USING SEVERAL SOURCES TO TRACK THESE TUNES. OF COURSE THE ORIGINAL SONGS, BUT ALSO GUITAR TABLATURE
SITES SUCH AS SONGSTERR.COM AND ULTIMATE-GUITAR.COM WHERE YOU CAN ISOLATE AND PLAYBACK EACH INSTRUMENT AND ALSO
ADJUST TEMPO, WHICH HAVE BEEN VERY HANDY ON THE GUITAR SOLO PARTS. BOTH SONGS WERE MAINLY TRACKED ON MY ASUS
ZENBOOK LAPTOP WITH SENNHEISER HEADSET (TO NOT DRIVE MY WIFE TOTALLY INSANE), USING WINUAE (I STARTED UP DOING
'FACE IN THE SAND' ON ONE OF MY A1200S, BUT IT WAS TOO CONVENIENT HAVING THE OPTION OF PLAYING BACK TABS AND
THE SONG IN THE BACKGROUND ON MY LAPTOP WITHOUT CHANGING HEADSET, SO IT WAS MORE SUITABLE FOR THE PURPOSE).
GREETINGS FLIES OUT TO ALL MAIDEN FANS OUT THERE, AND MY COMPANIONS IN DESIRE AND FELLOW MUSICIANS AND SCENERS
I'VE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH OVER THE YEARS, WAAY TOO MANY TO BE MENTIONED :), AND OF COURSE MY WIFE AND OUR TWO
LITTLE PANDAS WHO ENRICHES MY EVERYDAY LIFE :)

b ON THE KEYS....
MAKING THESE COVERS WAS JUST ABOUT THE HARDEST THING I EVER DID.
RIGHT UP THERE WITH SHAVING AND BRUSHING MY TEETH. BUT I PULLED THROUGH.
SO THE NEXT TIME YOU SAY I'M LAZY THINK AGAIN, LOVE. AND FOR THAT MATTER,
WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE ME? AND WHO AM I TO JUDGE YOU? WE WILL BOTH STAND BEFORE EDDIE IN THE END.
THESE TUNES TRAVELLED THE WORLD WITH ME. I STARTED MAKING PROWLER BACK HOME IN
TYRESO KINGDOM, AND BROUGHT IT WITH ME TO THE PSYCHEDELIC BEACHES OF SARDINIA
AND COMPLETED IT IN A STATE OF TOTAL ECLIPSE IN SMALAND. AFTER RECOVERING FROM
THE EXHAUSTION IN A SILENT SANCTUARY, I DISCOVERED TO MY ABSOLUTE HORROR THAT
NOBODY HAD MADE A WASTED YEARS COVER. FUCK! I HAD TO GET MY SHIT TOGETHER AND
MAKE ONE, OR THE WORLD WOULD BE NEVER BE THE SAME. OR ALWAYS THE SAME.
SOMETHING LIKE THAT. HOLY SHIT, THAT CTRL-KEY KEEPS LEAPING AT ME, CAN SOMEONE
HOLD THAT FUCKER DOWN? THANK YOU. I PROMPTLY NEGLECTED MY JOB AND ABUSED MY
FAMILY TO THE GREATEST EXTENT I COULD, THEREBY ACCUMULATING THE EVIL NEEDED TO
GET ANOTHER COVER STARTED. AFTER SENDING A PREVIEW TO SPOT AND GETTING HIS
APPROVAL, I BROUGHT THE TUNE TO THE SCORCHED GROUNDS OF TURKEY, LIVED AS A
REFUGEE FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND THEN WENT BACK HOME TO FINISH IT OFF IN AN
AMNESIA HAZE. I LOST ALL MY FRIENDS IN THE PROCESS. I HOPE IT WAS WORTH IT, DIPSHITS.
c ALK / TITAN dc
b AT THE KEYS, TAKING SOME TIME OFF FROM TRACKING MY CONTRIBUTION TO TYPE SOME
WORDS FOR THIS METAL DISK... I'D HEARD ABOUT THE DISK FROM MY TEAMMATES ALIEN AND KABUTO
FOR A LONG TIME, BUT UNFORTUNATELY DIDN'T FIND THE TIME TO MAKE SOMETHING FOR IT... I'D
FOLLOWED KABUTO'S WORK ON HIS MEGADRIVE MOD PLAYER.. TILL NOW ALL DIGITAL AUDIO I'D
HEARD FROM MEGADRIVE WAS LOFI AND CRACKLY... THANKS TO SEGA'S HARDWARE DESIGN (OR SO I THOUGHT)
... STILL KABUTO HAD A PLAN, AND HE DELIVERED! CRYSTAL CLEAR 26KHZ MOD PLAYBACK ON MEGADRIVE!
AMAZING, BUT I WAS STILL TOO BUSY TO MAKE SOMETHING... ALIEN TOLD ME THAT SOME AHX TRACKS WERE ON
THE MUSIC DISK, BUT THE MEGADRIVE EDITION WOULDN'T PLAY THESE... THE MEGADRIVE
WOULD BE SECOND BEST :(((( FOR FUN I LOOKED AROUND THE NET AND CAME ACROSS SOURCECODE
FOR HIVELYTRACKER (WHICH INCLUDED AHX PLAYBACK), AND SENT THE LINK TO KABUTO. I'D FORGOTTEN ABOUT THIS
UNTIL SOME WEEKS LATER WHEN KABUTO MESSAGED ME, HE'D IMPLEMENTED AHX PLAYBACK ON SEGA'S 16 BIT MACHINE!
:-) MY OLDSCHOOL HEART WAS BEATING HARD BY NOW d I DECIDED THERE AND THEN I MUST TRIBUTE
HIS AND ALIENS AWESOME EFFORTS BY PRODUCING AN AHX FOR THE DISK... IT WAS NOW 1.5 MONTHS BEFORE
THE DEADLINE AND I'D NEVER COMPOSED AN AHX BEFORE... ASAP I LEARNT THE EXCELLENT
c HIVELY TRACKER d c
b I FIRST MADE MY OWN HIVELY SKIN, EXAMINED SOME AHX FILES FROM MODLAND,
AND THEN GOT TRACKING! I'M STILL WORKING ON THE TRACK BUT BY THE TIME YOU READ THIS
ALL WILL BE DONE, AND YOU WILL BE TAPPING YOUR TOES TO THE BEAT, I PROMISE! :) :) :) BEFORE I GO
THERE'S JUST TIME TO SEND GREETS TO SOME SPECIAL PEOPLE: ALL TITAN CREW INCLUDING
IROKOS, RED, BLASTY, LIRANUNA, DSTAR, STRAGER, OERG, JIX, FIZZER, MOQUI, ARVENIUS, NEOMAN, ISHA, GENCHA,
IKOER, MALODIX, STROBE, SIK, ZANER, PHUNCK, PIKZEL, SUNSPIRE, SVENZZON, MUESLEE, OERG866, RAINA, CHAIN...
AND ALL THE OTHER LOVELY SCENE PEOPLE WHO I MEET AT DEMOPARTIES AND SPEAK WITH ONLINE, BIG LOVE!!!! SEE
YOU AT REVISION 2015! ALK OUT ...BZZZTT.........
HEY HEADBANGERS!
I`M HONOURED TO TECONIZE YOU WITH MY VERSION OF THE
'IRON MAIDEN' SONG - ONE I SUSPECT IS EASILY FORGOT
AMONG ALL THE FAB CLASSICS. IT BECAME THE OBVIOUS CHOICE WHEN
THE CONTRIBUTION-LIST I SAW WAS MISSING THE FIRST ALBUM, AND WHEN I
REALIZED THERE WERE STILL FIVE DAYS UNTIL RELEASE... I THOUGHT IT WAS THE ONE
I COULD DO ON TIME, AND NOW IT`S UP TO YOU TO SEE IF YOU LIKE THE RESULT!
UNDERWAY, THE ORIGINAL REALLY GREW ON ME AND I`M DIGGIN IT MORE THAN I EVER
DID (MOSTLY LIKED THE OTHER TUNES ON THAT RECORD, EXCEPT MAYBE HARLOT).
THINKING ABOUT IT, MAIDEN TO ME IS MOSTLY THE FIRST THROUGH FIFTH ALBUM.
AND L.A.D. OFCOURSE. IN PRIMARY SCHOOL WE WWERE COPYING EACH OTHERS
COPIES OF THOSE TAPES.. IT WAS THE AGE WHEN CASSETTE
PLAYERS AND JIVE BUNNY RULED THE WORLD.
BUT MAIDEN WAS MORE OF AN ICON (IS WHY THESE GUYS MADE A TRIBUTE
IN THE FIRST PLACE OFCOURSE!)
THE FIRST POSTERS I BOUGHT WAS IRON MAIDEN. THE BEST XMAS GIFT WAS THAT
BLURRY VHS COPY OF LIVE AFTER DEATH MY BROTHER GAVE ME.
THEN THERE WAS THIS CELEBRITY FOOTBALL GAME, WHERE STEVE HARRIS
AND THE DEF LEPPARD-SINGER WAS DRAGGED TO OSLO WITH SOME ENGLISH EX-PROFS.
A FRIEND CONVINCED HIS FATHER TO DRIVE US THERE. IT WAS SO
WEIRD, SO FEW PEOPLE, AND STEVE HARRIS IN A FOOTBALL (HAMMERS) OUTFIT
BREATHING THE SAME AIR IN THE SAME HUMBLE CAFETERIA AS OURSELVES.
WE GOT HIS AUTOGRAPH AND SAW A USELESS GAME IN LOUSY WEATHER. I FIGURE
HE DID HIS LAST CELEB FOOTY GIG THAT DAY.
AFFECTIONS FOR S.I.T. AND 7TH SON NEVER REALLY EXISTED, AND
THEY WERE WAY OFF WITH NO PRAYER FOR THE DYING, MOST OF US THOUGHT.
I RECALL PURCHASING THE TAPE, AND I RECALL REGRETTING IT.
HOWEVER, FOR A GREAT COMEBACK, MAIDEN ACCOMPANIED ONE OF THOSE FIRST TRIES
AT REAL LOVE WHEN IT TOOK FORM AS A DRUNKEN FRENCH KISS ON A SOBER GIRL
DURING SOME SONG OFF THE F.O.T.D ALBUM. HAHA! THIS IS WHEN HOMEBREW LIQUOR
RULED OUR WORLD AND I HAD MY FIRST `ROTBL0YTE` - AND SUBSEQUENTLY THE WORST
HANGOVER TO THIS DAY... FLIGHT OF ICARUS IRL.
AS IT WERE, THOSE YEARS ALSO MARKED A SIGNIFICANT SHIFT IN MUSIC INTEREST
AS OUR OLD BREADBOXES WERE REPLACED WITH A500S, WHICH IN TURN OPENED OUR
EYES TO THE WORLD OF CREATION AND EXPRESSIONIST EXTRATERRESTRIAL VAGINAL
BONANZA (OR JUST EXTRAVAGANZA) THAT HAD BEEN GOING ON. A SCENE FORGED BY
WRATHCHILDS AND PRODIGAL SONS BEFORE US.
IT SEEMED MORE NATURAL AND RATIONAL TO FOLLOW THAT PATH RATHER THAN
ROCKSTARS IN SLIM CLOTHING, SO TRACKING, PIXELLING,SWAPPING,
MAKING OUR CLI-PACKS, GROUPS, TRAVELLING AROUND WITH BOXES OF COMPUTER GEAR
AND SO FORTH, BECAME THE WAY. IRON MAIDEN DISSAPEREAD INTO THE BACKGROUND
WHILE OTHER BANDS AND ARTISTS TOOK THEIR PLACE...
BUT THEY KEPT CRAWLING BACK, YET NEVER AS POWERFUL AS NOW!
IT HAD TO BE AN AMIGA INVOLVED. IT HAD TO BE A CULTURAL THING, A BODY
THING... A SOUL THING. HUGE GRACIAS TO THE OTHER MUSICIANS, THE PRODUCERS,
CODERS, GFXIANS, EVERYONE HELPING OUT IN MAKING THIS DISK HAPPEN.. MUCH LOVE
AND RESPECT TO YOU - AND ALL SCENERS STILL PUSHING. ESPECIALLY IF YOU READ
THE WHOLE DAMN SCROLL! LOOK OUT FOR CHIP CHOP #16 BY DESIRE - COMING SOON.
