Remember Dan Wright?
He was the founder of Hornet, started organizing the Music
Contests, and has released the Escape Freedom CDs. He has a small
company nowaday, Fusecon, wich tries to release stuff from
scene-musicians on CD. Check out
http://www.fusecon.com/audio/scenecds
There is also a database with all scene-related CDs
releases/announced so far, sorted by date, so you can easily see if
theres something new. This month, already 3 CDs have been released
mostly music.
I know, Fusecom exist already one/two years, but its the first
time I hear about it, and its updated 13-1-1999, so I thought some
editors may regard this as news : ed: so we do! :

barog sulphur joined at the same time
sulphur he phoned me up and begged.. got down on his knees.

PsychicS nrg: define errm... :P
sulphur he said sulphur.. join! Ill pay you.. I felt sorry for him
in the end. :

sulphur nrg joined because he makes cracking joints!
PsychicS sulphur: how many ppl are in tesko?
sulphur he rolls them with his eyes closed. :
NRG- I sent some code and gfx and I was signed up ehehe
Tesko derives itself from several demo groups over the years.
Way back in October 1991 a new Amiga demo group called Doom
was born. This groups talents were quite poor for a long
while, until the group underwent a name and style change in
February 1993. Out went the boring Doom name and serious
wannabe demo group... in came a new crazy almost Melon like
style and the name... Voodoo Design! Morale boosted somewhat
and Voodoo put out a few demos and intros plus the well known
UK Charts. Until October 1993, when Voodoo disbanded into
separate groups Tesko and Killer Zombie Dezines
sulphur cutnpaste from webpage. ha.
NRG- : blah
barog 12 people in tesko at the moment.. actually might be 13..
depends if trev included sin. our newest coder.. we arent
recruiting any more for now
PsychicS all from the UK?
NRG- shall we talk about how big and upncoming the uk demo scene
is?
PsychicS nrg: please do! :P
NRG- about tesko
http://www.scentral.demon.co.uk/teskodev/about.htm
barog psychic: yep.. all uk tallent
NRG- Im thinking. barog help me out
we got a mailing list :
barog the ukscene yea..
nrg: ill do this bit.. im good at speeches
well..
NRG- yea leave the boozin to me
barog Im in Bradford with TimJ at the moment and last night in the
pub we discussed Deja Vu.
PsychicS over a couple beers :P
barog Tim views the ukscene in exactly the same way that MajicM and
I have been talking about it. The scene needs to talk, to get
together.. it needs to have something added to it or maybe
something so it can develop
NRG- needs a new attitude
barog If people can meet, and experience scene meets again, then
groups will form and we can share ideas to help the uk scene
improve to become the BEST scene out of all international
scenes.. all we need, is people at the party..
to make the effort..
PsychicS so the point is... all in dejavu? like in last year? hei?
NRG- I think the problem is that people in the ukscene see coders
etc. as nerds
barog well.. dejavu last year wasnt planned at all like this one..
dejavu 1 was minor in comparison.. this time we have a domain
a good site..
PsychicS how many ppl did turn up on last dejavu? 20?
barog 10.. but we held it in a house this house
this is held in a proper partyplace..

Cortesy appearance of NRG! :
! demo !
Moai by Nomad party-version
Found at http://files.theparty.dk
1st place at The Party 8.
System requirements:
DOS: Pentium, Univbe or Vesa 16-bit, SB or GUS, 5.5 MB HD.
Windows: DirectX 3.
Memory requirements are not listed, but I read on
comp.sys.ibm.pc.demos that the party-version requires 64MB Wow! I
have that :, but the final version should work with only 32MB.
The party-result:
Well, there has been quite some discussion whether Moai or State of
Mind/Bomb deserved to win at TP8. Well, Moai DID win, so apparently
they deserved it, isnt it ? But State of Mind feels better the more
you look at it, while Moai has a large surprise-factor. After
looking at it three times, its less appealing because you know what
will happen. So, you may wish to skip the next section till the
The demo-part, because Ill tell the story, spoiling the fun of
those who havent seen it yet. Youve been warned.
The story:
Do you know the Easter-island? Its an island in the Pacific where
there are old statues, mostly very large faces, looking at the sea.
Moai i with 2 points on it, nowhere on my keyboard is the name of
either the statues or the civilisation that created them Im not
sure. Do you care?. Enough geographic bullshit. The demo starts with
a 3D-scene of 4 of those statues looking at a stormy sky. The credits
are crossfaded over this, and the title screen is shown black
white, yuck. Then a hand-drawn? picture of the heads is shown
while the rest of the demo is being loaded. The main part starts at
the entrance of an ancient temple. We walk through several tunnels,
arriving in a large hall with 6 statues, a mirror and some kind of
pointy mirror-ball, hanging from the ceiling. This part reminds me of
The Fulcrum/Matrix. Suddenly, a part of the wall rotates and an
Moai-priest enters the room. The mirror rotates and some laser-guns,
made of stone, fire at the mirror-ball at the ceiling. The bullets
reflect on the mirror and hit the priest, who melts into the ground.
He re-appears below the mirror-ball, now wearing a white costume. The
whole hall transforms to a disco, the music changes and the priest
starts dancing. This is really surprising, the first time you see it.
Even the statues are dancing, really funny. Then the main characters
are shown with their name, like at the end of Tribes. When you think
the end of the demo is reached, the camera zooms out, showing a
television in a modern room with books, an aquarium, a computer, ...
When we walk out the door however, we are back in the temple-hall
with the dancing statues, and back in the modern room, the priest is
dancing. The greetings appear, while the camera keeps zooming out,
revealing the television, then turning to the priest and zooming out
again. If this sounds confusing, the effect itself is even more
confusing. You really lose your grip on time/space perception dont
use drugs, watch Moai :. Then some boasting about the nr of faces,
objects, etc appear, not really interesting. The end-credits are
original: a text saying who did what, morphs into a 3D-modelling of
that person.
The demo:
Basically, its another of those high-quality 3D-world shows. No
2D-effects, hardly any pictures, just 3D-studio objects. The quality
of the code is hard to judge on a P2 350, but there are omnilights,
mirrors, recursive vectors, ... Yes, all done before, but the best
thing about this demo is not the 3D-engine, its the ideas and
surprises design, if you wish. Nomad really tried to be original,
and I think they succeeded. There are some links to other famous
demos Tribes, The fulcrum, and some little jokes 3de Moai:
DiCaprio :. The music fits the feeling of the demo, calm and exotic
in the first part, changing to some disco-tune at the second. The
music is an .XM, not an MPEG. Good.
Worth the download ?:
Its a real party-demo, grabbing your attention and really
surprising the FIRST time you see it and thats all that counts at a
party. Unless you want all demos to be shown three times. Its a
must-see, but not something you will keep on your harddisk forever.
Apologies:
Yes, this review is way too long. I know. Sorry Psychic. But we all
know how long it may take before the final version is released, so I
wanted to keep those people up-to-date who dont have 64MB, didnt go
to The Party, but want to know what everyone on the net is talking
about :. ed: its all fine by me! :
Seven
! intro !
Alien Sex Clone - Fudge
Fudge has already proved that they are THE masters of 64k intros,
and they didnt dissappoint us with the new member of the clone
series. Im not going to describe the intro effect by effect, itd take
too long. Instead, id like to talk about the overall feeling itself,
which is just great. First, its good to hear that synthesized music
i mean synth. samples of course does not automatically mean 303
like fast-paced techno music. The song just fits great to the intro
itself, mild melody with nice colors, and - traditionally -
eye-pleasing textures. The code itself seems to be good too - its
fast, accurate, even in 512x384 which is strange, considering that
my video card doesnt support it - and still, it runs perfectly.
Fudge guys took their time and came up with a long intro which ISNT
boring - not at all. Some effects seem familiar, but take another
look: theyve been redesigned, at least most of them.
Alien Sex Clone by Fudge is a MUST for every scener - no doubt. Oh,
and it won the TP98 64kb intro competition, congrats to Fudge, hope
to see some more from them soon.

author: captain
lenght: 5:06
type: 4 channel mod
the song begins with nice choirs and filter sweeps. then begins the
melody and the drums which arent the usual 909 or 808 and sound
acoustic. it sounds a lot like its played live and its not so
minimalistic as the music nowdays is. it can be heard that the maker
has done a lot for it. it sounds a little like technotronic and gives
a good look of the music made back then. the samples sound like
sampled from a digital synthesizer. something like a roland d?
a very nicely organized song in 4 channels, a classic which doesnt
die.
you can download it from

Shut your mouth and get back in line,
and if you dont like it, well, it suits us just fine...
We hold the levers! We pull the strings!
And those are just some of our favorite things...

huh?............................The more alive among you already know what
YALP is, the more sober among the alive
already know that the third one is coming,
and the more informed among the sober also
know that were changing our traditional
time of year and party place. However, for
the dead, drunk and uninformed, we are
going to say that YALP is the oldest great
Yugoslav demo party, that two summer ones
have been held by now, and that we are just
inviting you to the first winter YALP.
The date is January 23rd, and the address...........fine, when and where?
is Radomira Vujovica 3, Belgrade. The
easiest way to find us is to reach the
hospital Dragisa Misovic by public
transportation lines 40, 41, 42 or 59, or
the Topciderska zvezda square by the line
43, and then follow the attached map. The
door gets opened at 12:oo noon and closed
somewhere during the next night or morning.

ok, im definitely coming!
! DSYS reactions !
editor: this is an ICQ log of a conversation between me and
Programmer/Universe. Me and prog though it would be
appropriate to share it with the rest of the demoscene
Psychic Symphony dsys has been released!
Programmer dsys?
whats that?
Psychic Symphony doomsdays demomaker! system
Programmer really? and what does it do?
Psychic Symphony makes the doomsdays demos! like boost,off
and elektronics
Programmer
Psychic Symphony it runs a script, if u know smtg about 3d and gfx
u can make a demo without coding at all!!!
Programmer Does it has Windows interface to create good demos?
Psychic Symphony no... no interface... all txt script
Programmer uh... now the scene will be flooded with a dsd alike
demos?
Psychic Symphony im waiting for reactions on that!
Programmer ghm write down my own reaction , ok? : ed: NO hehe!
Psychic Symphony i reckon some articles will be written about that!
Programmer There was some effects in last doomsday demos, looking
always the same , and there was some different 3d
scenes. To their end, they have released a DSYS. Or
havent released, anyway. But for now, it will be called
lame as it was done 5 years ago with the famous
program called intromaker
have you heard about it?
Psychic Symphony the guys lived far from each other! MRI wrote the
script reader so the gfx dudes could test some
3d/gfx ideas without needing the coder around!
no! cant say i heard about it!
Psychic Symphony u want me to copy what u are writing? write down
my own reaction...
Programmer yes , I want you to copy it. If their system can just
use internal effects, it will kill the scene.
never heard?
where can I download this system?
Psychic Symphony no! i think it can use some externals... i dont
recall very well, i only read a little of some
info files...
on ftp://demo.cat.hu/New/ system or smtg
Psychic Symphony its 7 megs with the examples boost and off
Programmer I want to : But I will say more , when I will get an
archive
editor: there! hope this little article can unleash some opinions
about dsys... What will happen when a gfx/sound duo wins
some demoparty with a demo done with dsys? If you read the
infofile on dsys, MRI already says that to do such demos it
does still take lot of talent, predicting scene speculation.
Lets see what the future brings :

And Seven digged up some information aswell:
Remember Dan Wright?
He was the founder of Hornet, started organizing the Music
Contests, and has released the Escape Freedom CDs. He has a small
company nowaday, Fusecon, wich tries to release stuff from
scene-musicians on CD. Check out
http://www.fusecon.com/audio/scenecds
There is also a database with all scene-related CDs
releases/announced so far, sorted by date, so you can easily see if
theres something new. This month, already 3 CDs have been released
mostly music.
I know, Fusecom exist already one/two years, but its the first
time I hear about it, and its updated 13-1-1999, so I thought some
editors may regard this as news : ed: so we do! :

sulphur nrg joined because he makes cracking joints!
PsychicS sulphur: how many ppl are in tesko?
sulphur he rolls them with his eyes closed. :
NRG- I sent some code and gfx and I was signed up ehehe
Tesko derives itself from several demo groups over the years.
Way back in October 1991 a new Amiga demo group called Doom
was born. This groups talents were quite poor for a long
while, until the group underwent a name and style change in
February 1993. Out went the boring Doom name and serious
wannabe demo group... in came a new crazy almost Melon like
style and the name... Voodoo Design! Morale boosted somewhat
and Voodoo put out a few demos and intros plus the well known
UK Charts. Until October 1993, when Voodoo disbanded into
separate groups Tesko and Killer Zombie Dezines
sulphur cutnpaste from webpage. ha.
NRG- : blah
barog 12 people in tesko at the moment.. actually might be 13..
depends if trev included sin. our newest coder.. we arent
recruiting any more for now
PsychicS all from the UK?
NRG- shall we talk about how big and upncoming the uk demo scene
is?
PsychicS nrg: please do! :P
NRG- about tesko
http://www.scentral.demon.co.uk/teskodev/about.htm
barog psychic: yep.. all uk tallent
NRG- Im thinking. barog help me out
we got a mailing list :
barog the ukscene yea..
nrg: ill do this bit.. im good at speeches
well..
NRG- yea leave the boozin to me
barog Im in Bradford with TimJ at the moment and last night in the
pub we discussed Deja Vu.
PsychicS over a couple beers :P
barog Tim views the ukscene in exactly the same way that MajicM and
I have been talking about it. The scene needs to talk, to get
together.. it needs to have something added to it or maybe
something so it can develop
NRG- needs a new attitude
barog If people can meet, and experience scene meets again, then
groups will form and we can share ideas to help the uk scene
improve to become the BEST scene out of all international
scenes.. all we need, is people at the party..
to make the effort..
PsychicS so the point is... all in dejavu? like in last year? hei?
NRG- I think the problem is that people in the ukscene see coders
etc. as nerds
barog well.. dejavu last year wasnt planned at all like this one..
dejavu 1 was minor in comparison.. this time we have a domain

Cortesy appearance of NRG! :
! demo !
Moai by Nomad party-version
Found at http://files.theparty.dk
1st place at The Party 8.
System requirements:
DOS: Pentium, Univbe or Vesa 16-bit, SB or GUS, 5.5 MB HD.
Windows: DirectX 3.
Memory requirements are not listed, but I read on
comp.sys.ibm.pc.demos that the party-version requires 64MB Wow! I
have that :, but the final version should work with only 32MB.
The party-result:
Well, there has been quite some discussion whether Moai or State of
Mind/Bomb deserved to win at TP8. Well, Moai DID win, so apparently
they deserved it, isnt it ? But State of Mind feels better the more
you look at it, while Moai has a large surprise-factor. After
looking at it three times, its less appealing because you know what
will happen. So, you may wish to skip the next section till the
The demo-part, because Ill tell the story, spoiling the fun of
those who havent seen it yet. Youve been warned.
The story:
Do you know the Easter-island? Its an island in the Pacific where
there are old statues, mostly very large faces, looking at the sea.
Moai i with 2 points on it, nowhere on my keyboard is the name of
either the statues or the civilisation that created them Im not
sure. Do you care?. Enough geographic bullshit. The demo starts with
a 3D-scene of 4 of those statues looking at a stormy sky. The credits
are crossfaded over this, and the title screen is shown black
white, yuck. Then a hand-drawn? picture of the heads is shown
while the rest of the demo is being loaded. The main part starts at
the entrance of an ancient temple. We walk through several tunnels,
arriving in a large hall with 6 statues, a mirror and some kind of
pointy mirror-ball, hanging from the ceiling. This part reminds me of
The Fulcrum/Matrix. Suddenly, a part of the wall rotates and an
Moai-priest enters the room. The mirror rotates and some laser-guns,
made of stone, fire at the mirror-ball at the ceiling. The bullets
reflect on the mirror and hit the priest, who melts into the ground.
He re-appears below the mirror-ball, now wearing a white costume. The
whole hall transforms to a disco, the music changes and the priest
starts dancing. This is really surprising, the first time you see it.
Even the statues are dancing, really funny. Then the main characters
are shown with their name, like at the end of Tribes. When you think
the end of the demo is reached, the camera zooms out, showing a
television in a modern room with books, an aquarium, a computer, ...
When we walk out the door however, we are back in the temple-hall
with the dancing statues, and back in the modern room, the priest is
dancing. The greetings appear, while the camera keeps zooming out,
revealing the television, then turning to the priest and zooming out
again. If this sounds confusing, the effect itself is even more
confusing. You really lose your grip on time/space perception dont
use drugs, watch Moai :. Then some boasting about the nr of faces,
objects, etc appear, not really interesting. The end-credits are
original: a text saying who did what, morphs into a 3D-modelling of
that person.
The demo:
Basically, its another of those high-quality 3D-world shows. No
2D-effects, hardly any pictures, just 3D-studio objects. The quality
of the code is hard to judge on a P2 350, but there are omnilights,
mirrors, recursive vectors, ... Yes, all done before, but the best
thing about this demo is not the 3D-engine, its the ideas and
surprises design, if you wish. Nomad really tried to be original,
and I think they succeeded. There are some links to other famous
demos Tribes, The fulcrum, and some little jokes 3de Moai:
DiCaprio :. The music fits the feeling of the demo, calm and exotic
in the first part, changing to some disco-tune at the second. The
music is an .XM, not an MPEG. Good.
Worth the download ?:
Its a real party-demo, grabbing your attention and really
surprising the FIRST time you see it and thats all that counts at a
party. Unless you want all demos to be shown three times. Its a
must-see, but not something you will keep on your harddisk forever.
Apologies:
Yes, this review is way too long. I know. Sorry Psychic. But we all
know how long it may take before the final version is released, so I
wanted to keep those people up-to-date who dont have 64MB, didnt go
to The Party, but want to know what everyone on the net is talking
about :. ed: its all fine by me! :
Seven
! intro !
Alien Sex Clone - Fudge
Fudge has already proved that they are THE masters of 64k intros,
and they didnt dissappoint us with the new member of the clone
series. Im not going to describe the intro effect by effect, itd take
too long. Instead, id like to talk about the overall feeling itself,
which is just great. First, its good to hear that synthesized music
i mean synth. samples of course does not automatically mean 303
like fast-paced techno music. The song just fits great to the intro
itself, mild melody with nice colors, and - traditionally -
eye-pleasing textures. The code itself seems to be good too - its
fast, accurate, even in 512x384 which is strange, considering that
my video card doesnt support it - and still, it runs perfectly.
Fudge guys took their time and came up with a long intro which ISNT
boring - not at all. Some effects seem familiar, but take another
look: theyve been redesigned, at least most of them.
Alien Sex Clone by Fudge is a MUST for every scener - no doubt. Oh,
and it won the TP98 64kb intro competition, congrats to Fudge, hope
to see some more from them soon.
! mod !
favourite song review by jaffa/static jaanto@cc.helsinki.fi
song: space debris
author: captain
lenght: 5:06
type: 4 channel mod
the song begins with nice choirs and filter sweeps. then begins the
melody and the drums which arent the usual 909 or 808 and sound
acoustic. it sounds a lot like its played live and its not so
minimalistic as the music nowdays is. it can be heard that the maker
has done a lot for it. it sounds a little like technotronic and gives
a good look of the music made back then. the samples sound like
sampled from a digital synthesizer. something like a roland d?
a very nicely organized song in 4 channels, a classic which doesnt
die.
you can download it from

Shut your mouth and get back in line,
and if you dont like it, well, it suits us just fine...
We hold the levers! We pull the strings!
And those are just some of our favorite things...

transportation lines 40, 41, 42 or 59, or
the Topciderska zvezda square by the line
43, and then follow the attached map. The

ok, im definitely coming!
! DSYS reactions !
editor: this is an ICQ log of a conversation between me and
Programmer/Universe. Me and prog though it would be
appropriate to share it with the rest of the demoscene
Psychic Symphony dsys has been released!
Programmer dsys?
whats that?
Psychic Symphony doomsdays demomaker! system
Programmer really? and what does it do?
Psychic Symphony makes the doomsdays demos! like boost,off
and elektronics
Programmer
Psychic Symphony it runs a script, if u know smtg about 3d and gfx
u can make a demo without coding at all!!!
Programmer Does it has Windows interface to create good demos?
Psychic Symphony no... no interface... all txt script
Programmer uh... now the scene will be flooded with a dsd alike
demos?
Psychic Symphony im waiting for reactions on that!
Programmer ghm write down my own reaction , ok? : ed: NO hehe!
Psychic Symphony i reckon some articles will be written about that!
Programmer There was some effects in last doomsday demos, looking
always the same , and there was some different 3d
scenes. To their end, they have released a DSYS. Or
havent released, anyway. But for now, it will be called
lame as it was done 5 years ago with the famous
program called intromaker
have you heard about it?
Psychic Symphony the guys lived far from each other! MRI wrote the
script reader so the gfx dudes could test some
3d/gfx ideas without needing the coder around!
no! cant say i heard about it!
Psychic Symphony u want me to copy what u are writing? write down
my own reaction...
Programmer yes , I want you to copy it. If their system can just
use internal effects, it will kill the scene.
never heard?
where can I download this system?
Psychic Symphony no! i think it can use some externals... i dont
recall very well, i only read a little of some
info files...
on ftp://demo.cat.hu/New/ system or smtg
Psychic Symphony its 7 megs with the examples boost and off
Programmer I want to : But I will say more , when I will get an
archive
editor: there! hope this little article can unleash some opinions
about dsys... What will happen when a gfx/sound duo wins
some demoparty with a demo done with dsys? If you read the
infofile on dsys, MRI already says that to do such demos it
does still take lot of talent, predicting scene speculation.
Lets see what the future brings :
