!: weekly :
This week! I have been mostly eating... cartoons
! interview !
Session Start: Sat Jul 24 11:25:46 1999
*** radix has joined demojournal
ps hi radix! : who are you? :
radix Hi! Im a 20 year old boy, living in Stockholm, Sweden..
Well mentally Im probably 12 years old. My greatest
passions are composing music, watching cartoons and writing
litterature
ps and how did you get to be a part of this thing we call
scene? :
radix Well it started sometime in 91 when I borrowed a 1200baud
modem from a friend. Called some local bbss and got in
touch with the sysops who were in various groups at that
time. Earlier i had started playing around with soundtracker
on amiga, so i spread around some of my work, and after a
while i was good enough to join my first group.
ps and what group was that?
radix it was called Meka Design. We made some 40k productions with
my chipmusic
ps what year was this?
radix ps: 92-93
ps how were things back then compared to nowdays?
radix well back then i was 12-13 years old, so everything was so
mysterious and exciting. i had huge respect for the people
who had been in the scene for a while. i guess the respect
part is the biggest difference
ps how did you went from those times to nowdays fame and glory?:
radix fame and glory? right : well i just tracked and tracked
music. i got better, i hope :.
ps dont be modest now : you have any favorite personal tracks?
from yourself that is :
radix i dont like my own stuff, really. when i compose them i
listen to them like thousands of times. but i guess i can
say that im more pleased with some of my tracks. for
example im happy with Donovans Moonbike
ps do you listen back to them once youve finished them like..
lots of time after... do you feel like re-doing the tunes or
do they sound finished properly?
radix well i think i found them pretty flawless at the time i
composed them. if i listen to a track from last year i would
find some stuff id like to change
ps which brings us to current days, what have you been doing
lately?
radix Ive been working on various projects. some cd projects and
also some future demo plans. well see how all that turns out
ps what about your real life, what do you do nowdays?
radix well my real life consists of taking it easy with my
friends. watching videos or something, the exciting things
in life like that :
ps i mean what do you do for a living :
study/work that kind of thing :
radix Im not doing anything like that at the moment. Later this
fall i might be starting some studying. dont know yet if i
will get accepted at the school.
ps what was the first demoparty you attended?
radix it was ECC or TCC, dont remember what it was called.. it was
a party in sweden 92 i think
ps what is your best and worst memory of it?
radix my best memorey was when they played Probes track in the
music compo. the compos were great at that time. when a
compo started everyone would gather together to watch it,
voting was a really serious matter at that time.
my worst memory was when i threw up in the toilet. but im
glad i dont remember it very clearly
ps hehe, is it true about the tradition swedish demoparties have
on boozing? :
radix nah i dont know, not much more than any other country. and
as far as im concerned i think its really silly
ps silly? why? :
radix drunk people just act like total jerkoffs. its just plain
stupid. i dont have anything against drinking, not at all.
but i have witnessed too much bad things happening when
people get too drunk and violent
ps :P what was the best demoparty you ever attended?
radix i think it was tp3. it was awesome :
ps why do you say so?
radix it had great atmosphere, very good releases. I still
remember when i saw Arte from Sanity for the first time on
that bigscreen. And the sequel to State of the Art from
Spaceballs, 9 fingers was also released there.
ps are you ready for demojournals super top quizshow contest? :
radix yeah!
ps 1. whats your favorite color?
radix blue
ps 2. whats the capital of madagascar?
radix Antananarivo
ps 3. how much wood would a woodcutter cut if a woodcutter
would cut wood?
radix Can i get back to you on that? Have to ask my grandpa
ps 4. what is the relation to you of the son of your sisters
grandfather? go ask this one to your grandpa too :
radix well if i had a sister, her grandfathers son would be my dad
or my uncle? yes i better ask him
Java once drew a picture of my sister
ps i though you didnt have a sister :P
radix As far as I know i dont have one. But Java seems to know
her :/ She is really pretty, too!
ps really? can i have that pic? :P anyways..
5. what is the earths radius measured over the equador line
in meters?
radix i think its something like 40.000.000m
sure i can send it ed: winner pic from remedy99 btw
ps please do : so whats your favorite demo of all times then? :
radix I think that is Baygon or something produced by Melon Dezign
on Amiga : brilliant stuff :
ps baygon? isnt that an anti-bug spray?
radix i dont know? might be :
ps hehe :P what are your favorite coders, trackers, gfxians?
radix that are active today?
ps anything! you pick : you know.. that pic is said to be
pixelled from a magazine.. which means that girl actually
exists! : so you actually have a sister :P
radix ok, my favourite coder is Raven/TPOLM,
favourite musician is MD/TPOLM and my
favourite graphician is Thor/TPOLM ed: THOR RULESS!!!!
yes she is out there somewhere!
ps you seem to keep it in the family. why is TPOLM so good? :
radix they are the most beautiful people i know
ps : so what are your plans for the future on the scene?
radix i dont know. lately i have been really disappointed at
certain people in the scene, at a degree i have lost alot of
will to continue. but well see. probably ill go on
tracking music like i always have
ps i hope you do, you have any particular projects going on?
radix yes but they are all secret :
ps :P your no fun! :
where do you get your inspiration to track?
radix from everywhere.. mostly from the one i love above
everything else in the world
ps aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh... isnt that sweet :
radix :D
ps what tracker do you use nowdays?
radix fasttracker2 mostly. though madtracker2 looks really
interesting. i hope it will be accepted by the scene soon,
cause that what its all about. if no one uses it theres
not much point for me to use it, cause i want people to be
able to listen to my tracks :
ps where can ppl get madtracker?
radix check out www.maz-sound.com
ps why do you prefer madtracker over the rest? over fasttracker
mainly.. :
radix well it supports stereo samples and it has better features
like realtime filters. and its also a tracker for win32 so
it can be run at the same time as lets say Soundforge.
being able to task between different programs, to make all
the samples.
right now i use two computers. one for ft2 and one for
processing all the samples, and i have them connected in a
small network
ps humm.. you have any synths or that sort of machinery aswell?
radix i only have my Roland JV1080
ps is that enough for your tracking needs? :
radix yeah i guess it is. i can get a hold of most things i need
from it. and if i want some analog kind of sounds there are
a bunch of excellent soft synths out there
ps ok, well.. i dont know whatelse to ask. you want to say
anything in particular? :
radix nah i dunno :
ps oh yeah! where do you find the names for your songs?
radix where i find them? i dont know :. some of them i just come
up with when i listen to the track.
ps wanna say hi to friends some more his hehe
radix id like to say hello to the TPOLM family and my friend Tove
special His to Nisse!
ps hehe, no thanks to your dogs/cats?
radix I doubt my cat will ever read this! but *hugs* to robin!
ps hehe, you have an homepage and an email? :
*free advertising time!*
radix www.tpolm.com/radix radix@tpolm.com
there are scary pictures of me on my homepage!
ask your mom for permission!
ps :P ok, thx a million for this interview radix! :
radix no problemo! adeus!
ps haha! : bye
Session Close: Sat Jul 24 13:20:33 1999
! demo !
*strike*
! intro !
*strike*
! music !
on me paniq rmx
paniq / tdr
scene.org tdr release 114
june99
Even when its called remix, the structure of the song has changed
a lot. Paniq took the samples and assembled them into happy-hardcore
-influenced bigbeat this specification of style was used in info
file and I liked it so much that I had to use it :. This one
isnt special in the musical form no art: but, as writes paniq,
its fun to listen to. And thats the reason for downloading.
Camel without filter
Co-Op pedro guy / cbr
http://www.cbr.avnet.it
feb 98
This one was rated as 3rd best on tracked worx98 cd maz.
So I had to download it. Info file says its funk. Well Ok, if you
did smoke something you didnt know what it was and were riding on
the camel. Thats what they did to the funk. Its just ... great !
Btw 2nd was Iron curtain by Hunz and 1st Dead lock by Elwood.
Check Maz www.fh-zwickau.de/maz for details. Its somewhere
between old news.
Strangers
Drax / MoN
eh, dont know www.xs4all.nl/mon maybe
1999
I love songs made with sine sample only. Do I have to say anything
more? Maybe that Wave also did some - Stranglehold I, II and 1999.
But you have to know them. Downloading 4k wont kill you.
for marie
xerxes
www.level-d.com
1999
This one is better than the previous level-d releases by him.
Xerxes uses approved procedures in tracking, but he has updated
his sample gallery and made nice ballad, which floats on and on
and then, suddenly disappears. I also like its instrumentation
which is more advanced than in some of his previous releases.
Thats good old xerxes once again with one of his top songs.
Helden der Stille mp3
Vivid / KFMF
kosmic.org
1999
Vivid back again. Pretty dark again. Experimental again.
Thats all what has to be said. It could be used in a film. Place
Stalker into the unknown city in the Germany and this track is
what perfectly fits. It sounds like other vivids tunes with its
darkness but its more electronical. Damned good.
Moisture party edit
Jobe/KiloBite
ftp://ftp.scene.org/pub/parties/1999/vm99/mmul/jbevm99.zip
http://kilobite.cjb.net
winner of VM99 multichannel compo.
Pretty strange track. Text file included. I dont understand to it
but words like Satanic Sanitation or Necronomicon are enough for
me. The tune is strange as the text file but its really good. Its
weird sound is done by structure and especially by the samples. To
be exact, style of this music is similar to songs like Bodies and
sorrows by Mojo or Da water of Oblivion by Manual places 3,4 at
gardening97. If you have not heard any of the songs, get this one
to know what Im talking about, else you know what and the decision
is on you. Thanks to Bitnik / KiloBite for the tip.

distance i dont want fame, i want hash
! question !
question of the week:
is hplus better then alien sex clone or not?
i believe it is.
-baloo
H+ is not an intro, its a living form.
-Knos
yes. but its not as good as clone meets clone.
-Sagacity editor: clone meets clone rules the clone series!
not
-zden
hplus is better than alien sex clone.
hplus is not part of a cloning factory
-distance
ho yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees !
alien is very-very-very good too, but i think hplus is
so..... ass-kicking
-rez
hplus is porn and alien sex clone is just a kiss! x-
bitnik / body hammer kilobite
i liked hplus very much, its a trippy thing. Well aliensexclone
ive seen only once. Or maybe not even once. But I think once. If it
was the winner peezee intro from tp8.I liked hlpus more. Its looped
haha. And i have an amiga so i have no clue about peezee things
anyway...Blaaaaaaaaaaaah.
-teo . kangoorooexceed
hplus rocks.. nice design.. surprising!
alien sex clone... nice effects... erm... its nice too
i dunno.. i think i prefer hplus :
-ser
yes. bearing in mind that alien sex clone does not work on my
computer, grr, grr, argh.
-Vampyr
hplus is art, alien sex clone is just an intro. cant compare them.
-melwyn
hplus is better, because alien sex clone requires some alien
video mode not supported by my card... i havent seen it yet
-mrock
alien sex clone rullzz :
-gardner
thats boring. what about is sex better than coding or is real
life just an illusion?
-bam editor: i think you watched the matrix one too many times
