This week! I have been mostly eating... broken wings
! interview !
Session Start: Sun Oct 10 22:11:04 1999
*** NitroTRM has joined demojournal
NitroTRM hi ho silver
ps so who are you? :
NitroTRM Hi, Im Nitro, musician and a beginner-level
3d-graphician My real name is Kai-Eerik Komppa. I live in
Helsinki, Finland
ps and what do you do on real life?
NitroTRM I work too much : I am enrolled nurse now this is real
which is my dayjob, and I have a few music-related project
going on for the rest of my time. For example, I have now
a project of arranging and producing a music of one
promising female singer, Teque/Trauma has also his hands
in it too..
ps trauma.. whats its story? :
NitroTRM Whoo.. to make it short.. Trauma was formed from three
groups Hysteria Dee Dubius because all members knew
each other and had several co-ops going on all the time..
so we just decided to join forces.. I think it was a
right thing to do. Nowadays we all have something to do
with computers on real life too, therefore our
productivity is a bit slow etc. Personally, having a
dayjob of all different trade, I can do more.. thats why
I joined. thats actually very recent joining that is:
ps when did you first started into computers?
NitroTRM uuuh.. back in -82 my brother and I had a shared present,
in xmas I think, it was a Sinclair Spectrum 48k.. cool
gear! I even coded on it then :- I think that there is
still even a Spectrum-scene alive today, really
ps there is?
NitroTRM Yeah.. my brother claimed he found some demos on web that
run with an emulator.. I havent seen em tho:
ps i heard you recently joined kooma?
NitroTRM yeah, I have been hanging around with Los/kooma and he
was designing a demo, but had no music.. and for some
reason he asked if Im interested in composing for that..
and since even Virne liked my tune, I thought that what
the hell, if Im good enough for them, I want to join
since Trauma is really on/off group nowadays because all
the other members are pros with computers.. or
something : ..and, to make it clear, I applied to join,
they didnt ask me :-
ps hehe : so what are your plans scene wise for the future?
NitroTRM Oh.. I still want to make music, and if I manage to
develop my skills further on 3d, Ill be doing that too..
I have a secret shhh dream that Ill get to bigscreen
one day in animationcompo, having my own soundtrack in
it: No really I am pretty serious on this 3d right now
ps lets talk music... what do you use to make your music?
NitroTRM I have some gear.. Korg X3, Yamaha cs1x, Yamaha TG55 as
synths, then some fx-processors and a 20-channel mixer..
When I do trackermusic, I use good ol FT2. I never got
excited on IT, since I allready used synths when IT got
superior.. and believe me, using synths and other
midi-gear is better way than any tracker.
ps for how long have you been composing now?
NitroTRM My first releaseable tunes got out on -91 I think.. ..but
there was a dramatic improvement on -95 when I got my
first synth:-
Oh, btw I recently also got in traxinspace so now
theres some place for me to put my mp3s whenever I
got something to release:- theres 1 now, but Ill
upload more
ps nitro: woho! why didnt you get an homepage before?
NitroTRM oh, its not a homepage even:- just an account on that
community in web www.traxinspace.com.. I have been
inactive with it just simply because Im lazy and I
havent had so much fate in my material that it should be
so much released.. or something Im repeating myself:
ps anyways, what are your inspirations for your tracks?
NitroTRM lots of things.. some tracks born out of random jamming
with keyboards, if I get a nice chords by mistake
usually:.. then sometimes I get my hands on a pile of
great samples that inspire.. or sometimes I just have a
clear vision of a tune or a part of a tune
for example soundtrack on machines of madness was
entirely created on the long resonation-sound playing on
it all the time.. I just thought that a long rez would be
cool:-
ps : are you ready for demojournal top quiz show contest?
NitroTRM never more! Thats not, but I think that you can not be
less interested!:- Shoot me!
ps 1. whats your favorite color?
NitroTRM balck
black even:
ps 2. whats the capital of mexico?
NitroTRM Mexico-tequila-city!
ps 3. whats is the speed of light?
NitroTRM certainly enough. Really. I mean it.
ps 4. whats your favorite book and movie of all times?
NitroTRM hmm.. book would be Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy and
movie is...movie .. hmm.. can I name 4? no? then its
Big Lebowski.
ps you can name 4
NitroTRM B.L., Rosemarys Nightmare, Matrix, Star Wars
ps 5. if you died and got ressurec, what animal would you like
to be?
NitroTRM this is easy.. of course An Ass!
ps i said an animal..
NitroTRM it IS an animal: no really.. I would be a locust. I like
to be in a croud:
ps do you have a pet?
NitroTRM no. I have had guinea-pigs in a previous life, but
nowadays, living single, I cant have any. Im never home
etc.. you know
ps what parties did you ever attended? which ones were the best
and worst?
NitroTRM I have attended on every assembly since 94 ..then I have
been on TP5, but, being busy and lazy bastard, thats
about it. I liked TP or asm95 best, but I did not enjoy
last asm too much.. maybe because we ruined our demo on
the last moment:- and because there were no enough
tickets, damn it:
ps how was last asm? you got 2nd on 3d acc
NitroTRM yeah, well, the new partyplace is cool. Theres all the
positive things I have to say about it..:- No really,
most people seemed to have a great time there.. Im still
a bit sad about a few technical things that made our demo
to look-not-so-good:.. 2nd, well, it was nice, I think
that we have some fans here that voted us.. and Teques
!Cubes soundtrack was great on that demo.
ps im running out of questions now.. : you have anything to say
to your fans?
NitroTRM Hey! Is there any!:- In future, from time to time, check
out traxinspace for my new tunes. Do not hesitate to
contact if you want me to make music for your demo,
theres allways room for atleast conversation on that
subject. Have a happy life!
ps ok.. drop your mail :
your mail not your pants you sick pervert!
NitroTRM uh. Use my hotmail, Ill check it once a week.
kaitsu5@hotmail.com. Other contact info also available at
http://sauna.net/trauma
wow :
ps well.. thank you so much for your time nitro :
NitroTRM dont mention it. I think that youre a great man for
scene, keeping us alive. Im your fan! :
ps wow its when i hear comments like these that i realize why i
didnt stopped demoj yet.. :D editor: :
Session Close: Sun Oct 10 23:25:53 1999
! demo !
Chained by Agravedict party-version
Found at www.scene.org Horizon99/demo/01.rar
1st place at Horizon99
System requirements:
An info-file WITH requirements! The crowd goes wild!
Required: Pentium+MMX, 16 MB RAM, 3 MB HD, Vesa2 with LFB
Recommended: P225, 32MB RAM, DOS but works with Win
Im not sure which musicplayer they used, but it supports SB clones.
The demo:
Chained is mainly a 3D-demo. The biggest part is a long ride over
a very detailed PC-motherboard. Its a strange combination of
flat phongshaded objects, with without textures, existing
imaginary components. Its original, f.e. the greetings are visible
on secondary chips, but it lasts too long. Sometimes its better to
reveal only brief glimpses instead of a long showoff, so the watcher
wants to see it again, rather then becoming bored. A second 3D-world
shows us the room of a lone scener, and bestows upon us a Message.
Im not fond of Messages notice the capital, but the
demoscene-objects made me smile deja vu, who hasnt some scene
books CDs in his/her room?. Non-standard 3D is at the start of
the demo, during the credits, when a nice real-time raytrace-engine
kicks in. It shows some balls floating in a cylindrical room, with
walls, ceiling, floor and balls all mirroring. Its slightly blurred
2*2 blocks, but looks good enough to make me wish there was another
ray-scene in the demo. 2D-effects are few and simple, like fading
letters, a colorful horizontal blur and an extremely simple
water-reflection sinus-wobbling, yawn. Regarding graphics, two
handdrawn logos Agravedict Chained with an oldschool feel give
the demo a kick-start, the first is very nice colorful, the second
is a bit flat-colored. Further there are a few poster-textures in
the 3D-room, and a mediocre landscape. And hey! An ANSI-endscreen!
Thats been a long time. Hope some groups follow the example.
The music reminds me of my inability to categorize music : Something
between standard demo music dnb ? Anyway, its not bad, but could
use more variation, maybe a second theme and/or a clear lead. Now
its just the same theme with a few slower breaks.
Worth the download ?
WARNING: some people say Im overly positive on newbie-demos and
nit picking on big demos. Thats true :. Its because I expect
more from famous groups, and their demos will get downloaded anyway,
while smaller groups may need some advertising. If you think thats
unfair, keep it in mind while reading my reviews, or write your own
100 objective ones and send them to our grateful editor.
That said, Chained is Agravedicts first demo : OK, theyve made
several VHS-demos and a few intros, but its their first PC-demo.
In short:
Good points:
- Raytracing My favorite effect, its the future
- Pixeled logos
- Some original ideas main good point of many new groups
- Low requirements
Bad points:
- Bad timing 3D too long, first logo too short
- Old effects
- Overall quality could be higher music, pictures, design
So decide yourself, I didnt regret downloading it.
Seven
! intro !
Bakkslide 7 by hellcore+omnicolor
1st place at takeover99
Mrock asked me why didnt i ever reviewed bakkslide 7.. and well..
i simply had forgotten about it and dlee never picked it up for a
review so here it comes now. :
This is one of the best intros ever! Heavy on design and feeling,
it goes with hi-res greyscalled weird effects synced deeply with an
awesome soundtrack by yeks/omnicolor.. Its really hard to describe
this intro, its easier seen then explained.. imagine a te-2rb on
intro with some deep words scattered around and thats the closest
definition of bakkslide7 i can give you.
Im sorry this is short but im really not cut out for reviews :P
ps
! music !
Hold, Four steps to emptiness
Aisth
www.aisth.com 7MB
Aisth offers three demo songs on their homepage. First one
is Box which was 3rd at Assembly99 in mp3 competition and
which was reviewed here already. ed: wasnt box 2nd? at asm?
Another two songs are Hold and Four steps to emptiness
and they prove experimental sound of Aisths music, where the
most important instrument is human voice. All other instruments
are secondary, only drums remain. They dont have a tight place
or form and melody often changes in strange ways. Song may
start in classical way, but since beginning youll hear
secondary melodies moving in strange ways and slowly eating up
whole song. Interesting is that this songs wont leave in you
a feeling of electronical music. Even when theres a lot of
inluences from various styles and a lot of synth- instruments,
songs sound naturally. It isnt too much catchy, something
that would you exactly remember, but it sounds interesting
and its worth listening - so go on. Both songs are in mp3
format, first one is 4megs big, second one is 3 megs big.
editor: in case you dont know, and you should by now couz ive
already written it like 3 or 4 times before! aisth is
jugi/complex + alison that voice you can hear singing
they recently won the bornonthewww compo and as a reward
they got shitloads of studio time and went play life
at Los Angeles at the prize ceremony.. There is a cam
session of their performance... damn.. i need to go find my
mails.. wait!
http://vote.artistdirect.com/adoma/webcast/webcast.html
here we go... the thing is 2 hours big and aisth were
some of the last to play i havent checked myself.. no
bandwidth to get more then 5 seconds stream so fastforward
to see them :
Haux EP
Stereoman
www.noisemusic.org 7,5MB
If you didnt like stereomans electronical-only excesses like
Lurc and other, youll be pleased with this one. This release is
more similar to his older works which I liked more. Again long
ambient sounds, this time combined with more electronical
instruments which remained from his last works, but they arent
used that often. EP consists of two songs - Dreamborder and
rfip vik which are offered separately, so you dont have to
download whole 7MB, if you just want to know what its about. Only
if it wouldnt be in mp3 format.

Who the f*uck is Das?
Well, i have read in the dj59, that our US friend Pyromaniacs
favourite graphician is still Das of Shock! lately Chrome
Why doesnt anyone know him? Why is he still unreachable via
e-mail, IRC, or any other way? It seems that only one man knows the
secret: Atx of Chrome. And maybe me. :
I try now to tell the story of Das, and after that there will still
be unanswered questions are comming.
Das... in the past, he was the ONE. Not Neo. The only one
quality graphician of Hungary. He came from the dust, and now away
in the dawn... There was no Xtro Filler, Enok, Blackhand, Warpig
or Inferno at that time. Rack/Majic12 was the only one and REAL
hungarian concurent of the mighty Das/Absolute! Yes, you understand
right, he isnt from our nice country, he is from Finland! Atx met
him at Assembly 1994, when some of the hungarian fellows, and groups
were present at the party. groups like: Phantom Design - later
Shock! or the last placed demos creator Damons - later Mandula
uhh. Rod will kill me. And Atx met a dissapointed and
disqualified graphician... he was Das of Absolute PC. His picture
wasnt selected for the top 15. But they changed snail mail adresses,
and become good friends. They sent Xmas cards to eachother too, love,
peace and unity. UNITY! Phantom Design hadnt got a good graphician.
Atx was in one group Absolute PC with Das. And these people made a
historical moment: Shock! - hungarys best known, and most active
group born! Great victories have come in several graphic
competitions, and lot of good demos ... that was the marriage with
Das/Atx and Shock. But one thing never changed, only Atx had the
contact with the superb graphician. Even other Shock members didnt
knew him. Lot of good rankings, and nobody knew him? The first rumors
started then. Some of the hungarian sceners still think that Das is
hungarian, and he is Atxs dad! Well if you check in the phone book
of Budapest, you can see next to Atxs father the profession:
painter-graphician. He really made that cheat that a professional
entered an amateur competition? I think not. But who knows?
Naturally some sceners have seen the real oil versions of Dass art
in Budapests X and Y Gallery. But they were just envious, and talked
crap. And when Shock ended up carreer, Das followed Atx to his new
group: Chrome, showed his last picture in the demo Plastik and
after that nobody heard anything from him again.
Atx told me that Das ended school, and after his final exams he is
painting, and illustrating books. They havent contacted since 1996
autumn. No postcard, no phonecalls, nothing.
But i know the real? snailmail adress of Jussi Kaakinen. Thats
his real name. Because i hope that Das will work on the Berlin
demoproject too, and after much-much talk Atx finally gave me the
adress of Das. But i will not share it with you. I promised.
Maybe ill force Droid/Haujobb to meet him one time, and talk
realtime about the demo, because i think that just an invitation
on paper isnt enough...
Now the interresting question:
Ok, he lives in Finland... I talked with much .fi sceners, and
they were really wondering when i said that he is from Finland...
Why wasnt he never on a .fi party except? Assembly 94?!?
Why entered he his pics every time ONLY with Atx?!? means, only
hungarian parties, + the party 96. And we could ask some more
questions...
If anyone of you dear demojournal readers know some other facts,
or ever met Das personally please write back! Hahho .fi readers!
I hope you know something...
Was ist das? DAS. MOST WANTED. 1000
Btw. did you know that Finns and Hungarians were one nation
in the past? Maybe we must find the answer here...

This week! I have been mostly eating... broken wings
! interview !
Session Start: Sun Oct 10 22:11:04 1999
*** NitroTRM has joined demojournal
NitroTRM hi ho silver
ps so who are you? :
NitroTRM Hi, Im Nitro, musician and a beginner-level
3d-graphician My real name is Kai-Eerik Komppa. I live in
Helsinki, Finland
ps and what do you do on real life?
NitroTRM I work too much : I am enrolled nurse now this is real
which is my dayjob, and I have a few music-related project
going on for the rest of my time. For example, I have now
a project of arranging and producing a music of one
promising female singer, Teque/Trauma has also his hands
in it too..
ps trauma.. whats its story? :
NitroTRM Whoo.. to make it short.. Trauma was formed from three
groups Hysteria Dee Dubius because all members knew
each other and had several co-ops going on all the time..
so we just decided to join forces.. I think it was a
right thing to do. Nowadays we all have something to do
with computers on real life too, therefore our
productivity is a bit slow etc. Personally, having a
dayjob of all different trade, I can do more.. thats why
I joined. thats actually very recent joining that is:
ps when did you first started into computers?
NitroTRM uuuh.. back in -82 my brother and I had a shared present,
in xmas I think, it was a Sinclair Spectrum 48k.. cool
gear! I even coded on it then :- I think that there is
still even a Spectrum-scene alive today, really
ps there is?
NitroTRM Yeah.. my brother claimed he found some demos on web that
run with an emulator.. I havent seen em tho:
ps i heard you recently joined kooma?
NitroTRM yeah, I have been hanging around with Los/kooma and he
was designing a demo, but had no music.. and for some
reason he asked if Im interested in composing for that..
and since even Virne liked my tune, I thought that what
the hell, if Im good enough for them, I want to join
since Trauma is really on/off group nowadays because all
the other members are pros with computers.. or
something : ..and, to make it clear, I applied to join,
they didnt ask me :-
ps hehe : so what are your plans scene wise for the future?
NitroTRM Oh.. I still want to make music, and if I manage to
develop my skills further on 3d, Ill be doing that too..
I have a secret shhh dream that Ill get to bigscreen
one day in animationcompo, having my own soundtrack in
it: No really I am pretty serious on this 3d right now
ps lets talk music... what do you use to make your music?
NitroTRM I have some gear.. Korg X3, Yamaha cs1x, Yamaha TG55 as
synths, then some fx-processors and a 20-channel mixer..
When I do trackermusic, I use good ol FT2. I never got
excited on IT, since I allready used synths when IT got
superior.. and believe me, using synths and other
midi-gear is better way than any tracker.
ps for how long have you been composing now?
NitroTRM My first releaseable tunes got out on -91 I think.. ..but
there was a dramatic improvement on -95 when I got my
first synth:-
Oh, btw I recently also got in traxinspace so now
theres some place for me to put my mp3s whenever I
got something to release:- theres 1 now, but Ill
upload more
ps nitro: woho! why didnt you get an homepage before?
NitroTRM oh, its not a homepage even:- just an account on that
community in web www.traxinspace.com.. I have been
inactive with it just simply because Im lazy and I
havent had so much fate in my material that it should be
so much released.. or something Im repeating myself:
ps anyways, what are your inspirations for your tracks?
NitroTRM lots of things.. some tracks born out of random jamming
with keyboards, if I get a nice chords by mistake
usually:.. then sometimes I get my hands on a pile of
great samples that inspire.. or sometimes I just have a
clear vision of a tune or a part of a tune
for example soundtrack on machines of madness was
entirely created on the long resonation-sound playing on
it all the time.. I just thought that a long rez would be
cool:-
ps : are you ready for demojournal top quiz show contest?
NitroTRM never more! Thats not, but I think that you can not be
less interested!:- Shoot me!
ps 1. whats your favorite color?
NitroTRM balck
black even:
ps 2. whats the capital of mexico?
NitroTRM Mexico-tequila-city!
ps 3. whats is the speed of light?
NitroTRM certainly enough. Really. I mean it.
ps 4. whats your favorite book and movie of all times?
NitroTRM hmm.. book would be Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy and
movie is...movie .. hmm.. can I name 4? no? then its
Big Lebowski.
ps you can name 4
NitroTRM B.L., Rosemarys Nightmare, Matrix, Star Wars
ps 5. if you died and got ressurec, what animal would you like
to be?
NitroTRM this is easy.. of course An Ass!
ps i said an animal..
NitroTRM it IS an animal: no really.. I would be a locust. I like
to be in a croud:
ps do you have a pet?
NitroTRM no. I have had guinea-pigs in a previous life, but
nowadays, living single, I cant have any. Im never home
etc.. you know
ps what parties did you ever attended? which ones were the best
and worst?
NitroTRM I have attended on every assembly since 94 ..then I have
been on TP5, but, being busy and lazy bastard, thats
about it. I liked TP or asm95 best, but I did not enjoy
last asm too much.. maybe because we ruined our demo on
the last moment:- and because there were no enough
tickets, damn it:
ps how was last asm? you got 2nd on 3d acc
NitroTRM yeah, well, the new partyplace is cool. Theres all the
positive things I have to say about it..:- No really,
most people seemed to have a great time there.. Im still
a bit sad about a few technical things that made our demo
to look-not-so-good:.. 2nd, well, it was nice, I think
that we have some fans here that voted us.. and Teques
!Cubes soundtrack was great on that demo.
ps im running out of questions now.. : you have anything to say
to your fans?
NitroTRM Hey! Is there any!:- In future, from time to time, check
out traxinspace for my new tunes. Do not hesitate to
contact if you want me to make music for your demo,
theres allways room for atleast conversation on that
subject. Have a happy life!
ps ok.. drop your mail :
your mail not your pants you sick pervert!
NitroTRM uh. Use my hotmail, Ill check it once a week.
kaitsu5@hotmail.com. Other contact info also available at
http://sauna.net/trauma
wow :
ps well.. thank you so much for your time nitro :
NitroTRM dont mention it. I think that youre a great man for
scene, keeping us alive. Im your fan! :
ps wow its when i hear comments like these that i realize why i
didnt stopped demoj yet.. :D editor: :
Session Close: Sun Oct 10 23:25:53 1999
! demo !
Chained by Agravedict party-version
Found at www.scene.org Horizon99/demo/01.rar
1st place at Horizon99
System requirements:
An info-file WITH requirements! The crowd goes wild!
Required: Pentium+MMX, 16 MB RAM, 3 MB HD, Vesa2 with LFB
Recommended: P225, 32MB RAM, DOS but works with Win
Im not sure which musicplayer they used, but it supports SB clones.
The demo:
Chained is mainly a 3D-demo. The biggest part is a long ride over
a very detailed PC-motherboard. Its a strange combination of
flat phongshaded objects, with without textures, existing
imaginary components. Its original, f.e. the greetings are visible
on secondary chips, but it lasts too long. Sometimes its better to
reveal only brief glimpses instead of a long showoff, so the watcher
wants to see it again, rather then becoming bored. A second 3D-world
shows us the room of a lone scener, and bestows upon us a Message.
Im not fond of Messages notice the capital, but the
demoscene-objects made me smile deja vu, who hasnt some scene
books CDs in his/her room?. Non-standard 3D is at the start of
the demo, during the credits, when a nice real-time raytrace-engine
kicks in. It shows some balls floating in a cylindrical room, with
walls, ceiling, floor and balls all mirroring. Its slightly blurred
2*2 blocks, but looks good enough to make me wish there was another
ray-scene in the demo. 2D-effects are few and simple, like fading
letters, a colorful horizontal blur and an extremely simple
water-reflection sinus-wobbling, yawn. Regarding graphics, two
handdrawn logos Agravedict Chained with an oldschool feel give
the demo a kick-start, the first is very nice colorful, the second
is a bit flat-colored. Further there are a few poster-textures in
the 3D-room, and a mediocre landscape. And hey! An ANSI-endscreen!
Thats been a long time. Hope some groups follow the example.
The music reminds me of my inability to categorize music : Something
between standard demo music dnb ? Anyway, its not bad, but could
use more variation, maybe a second theme and/or a clear lead. Now
its just the same theme with a few slower breaks.
Worth the download ?
WARNING: some people say Im overly positive on newbie-demos and
nit picking on big demos. Thats true :. Its because I expect
more from famous groups, and their demos will get downloaded anyway,
while smaller groups may need some advertising. If you think thats
unfair, keep it in mind while reading my reviews, or write your own
100 objective ones and send them to our grateful editor.
That said, Chained is Agravedicts first demo : OK, theyve made
several VHS-demos and a few intros, but its their first PC-demo.
In short:
Good points:
- Raytracing My favorite effect, its the future
- Pixeled logos
- Some original ideas main good point of many new groups
- Low requirements
Bad points:
- Bad timing 3D too long, first logo too short
- Old effects
- Overall quality could be higher music, pictures, design
So decide yourself, I didnt regret downloading it.
Seven
! intro !
Bakkslide 7 by hellcore+omnicolor
1st place at takeover99
Mrock asked me why didnt i ever reviewed bakkslide 7.. and well..
i simply had forgotten about it and dlee never picked it up for a
review so here it comes now. :
This is one of the best intros ever! Heavy on design and feeling,
it goes with hi-res greyscalled weird effects synced deeply with an
awesome soundtrack by yeks/omnicolor.. Its really hard to describe
this intro, its easier seen then explained.. imagine a te-2rb on
intro with some deep words scattered around and thats the closest
definition of bakkslide7 i can give you.
Im sorry this is short but im really not cut out for reviews :P
ps
! music !
Hold, Four steps to emptiness
Aisth
www.aisth.com 7MB
Aisth offers three demo songs on their homepage. First one
is Box which was 3rd at Assembly99 in mp3 competition and
which was reviewed here already. ed: wasnt box 2nd? at asm?
Another two songs are Hold and Four steps to emptiness
and they prove experimental sound of Aisths music, where the
most important instrument is human voice. All other instruments
are secondary, only drums remain. They dont have a tight place
or form and melody often changes in strange ways. Song may
start in classical way, but since beginning youll hear
secondary melodies moving in strange ways and slowly eating up
whole song. Interesting is that this songs wont leave in you
a feeling of electronical music. Even when theres a lot of
inluences from various styles and a lot of synth- instruments,
songs sound naturally. It isnt too much catchy, something
that would you exactly remember, but it sounds interesting
and its worth listening - so go on. Both songs are in mp3
format, first one is 4megs big, second one is 3 megs big.
editor: in case you dont know, and you should by now couz ive
already written it like 3 or 4 times before! aisth is
jugi/complex + alison that voice you can hear singing
they recently won the bornonthewww compo and as a reward
they got shitloads of studio time and went play life
at Los Angeles at the prize ceremony.. There is a cam
session of their performance... damn.. i need to go find my
mails.. wait!
http://vote.artistdirect.com/adoma/webcast/webcast.html
here we go... the thing is 2 hours big and aisth were
some of the last to play i havent checked myself.. no
bandwidth to get more then 5 seconds stream so fastforward
to see them :
Haux EP
Stereoman
www.noisemusic.org 7,5MB
If you didnt like stereomans electronical-only excesses like
Lurc and other, youll be pleased with this one. This release is
more similar to his older works which I liked more. Again long
ambient sounds, this time combined with more electronical
instruments which remained from his last works, but they arent
used that often. EP consists of two songs - Dreamborder and
rfip vik which are offered separately, so you dont have to
download whole 7MB, if you just want to know what its about. Only
if it wouldnt be in mp3 format.

Who the f*uck is Das?
Well, i have read in the dj59, that our US friend Pyromaniacs
favourite graphician is still Das of Shock! lately Chrome
Why doesnt anyone know him? Why is he still unreachable via
e-mail, IRC, or any other way? It seems that only one man knows the
secret: Atx of Chrome. And maybe me. :
I try now to tell the story of Das, and after that there will still
be unanswered questions are comming.
Das... in the past, he was the ONE. Not Neo. The only one
quality graphician of Hungary. He came from the dust, and now away
in the dawn... There was no Xtro Filler, Enok, Blackhand, Warpig
or Inferno at that time. Rack/Majic12 was the only one and REAL
hungarian concurent of the mighty Das/Absolute! Yes, you understand
right, he isnt from our nice country, he is from Finland! Atx met
him at Assembly 1994, when some of the hungarian fellows, and groups
were present at the party. groups like: Phantom Design - later
Shock! or the last placed demos creator Damons - later Mandula
uhh. Rod will kill me. And Atx met a dissapointed and
disqualified graphician... he was Das of Absolute PC. His picture
wasnt selected for the top 15. But they changed snail mail adresses,
and become good friends. They sent Xmas cards to eachother too, love,
peace and unity. UNITY! Phantom Design hadnt got a good graphician.
Atx was in one group Absolute PC with Das. And these people made a
historical moment: Shock! - hungarys best known, and most active
group born! Great victories have come in several graphic
competitions, and lot of good demos ... that was the marriage with
Das/Atx and Shock. But one thing never changed, only Atx had the
contact with the superb graphician. Even other Shock members didnt
knew him. Lot of good rankings, and nobody knew him? The first rumors
started then. Some of the hungarian sceners still think that Das is
hungarian, and he is Atxs dad! Well if you check in the phone book
of Budapest, you can see next to Atxs father the profession:
painter-graphician. He really made that cheat that a professional
entered an amateur competition? I think not. But who knows?
Naturally some sceners have seen the real oil versions of Dass art
in Budapests X and Y Gallery. But they were just envious, and talked
crap. And when Shock ended up carreer, Das followed Atx to his new
group: Chrome, showed his last picture in the demo Plastik and
after that nobody heard anything from him again.
Atx told me that Das ended school, and after his final exams he is
painting, and illustrating books. They havent contacted since 1996
autumn. No postcard, no phonecalls, nothing.
But i know the real? snailmail adress of Jussi Kaakinen. Thats
his real name. Because i hope that Das will work on the Berlin
demoproject too, and after much-much talk Atx finally gave me the
adress of Das. But i will not share it with you. I promised.
Maybe ill force Droid/Haujobb to meet him one time, and talk
realtime about the demo, because i think that just an invitation
on paper isnt enough...
Now the interresting question:
Ok, he lives in Finland... I talked with much .fi sceners, and
they were really wondering when i said that he is from Finland...
Why wasnt he never on a .fi party except? Assembly 94?!?
Why entered he his pics every time ONLY with Atx?!? means, only
hungarian parties, + the party 96. And we could ask some more
questions...
If anyone of you dear demojournal readers know some other facts,
or ever met Das personally please write back! Hahho .fi readers!
I hope you know something...
Was ist das? DAS. MOST WANTED. 1000
Btw. did you know that Finns and Hungarians were one nation
in the past? Maybe we must find the answer here...
