*610... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 3... 2... 1... 0... krakoom! *5 yeeeaaah dudez!! u guessed it! indeed, this is a scroller...! o.k. enough of this kiddy language. now for some serious topics (&)! oh, boy! i wish you were a & beer! & as you might have noticed: the electronic knights are back and finally managed to release their first production on the last freak computer, the commodore amiga! we were so sick and tired of all our lame'n'lazy coders so that our graphic-designer captain bifat decided to learn coding on this machine. (this was about 2 weeks ago) and here is the result. we think it's pretty neat! so > out! - (he he he!!) we just remembered that this is an announcement for the probably greatest music-competition ever held on bread case's bigger brother. so we think we have to give you some more detailed technical information.... first of all, the best five will receive prices which are as follows: *3 1st price: 100 dm cash 2nd price: 50 dm cash 3rd price: 25 dm cash 4th and 5th: the disks we will receive. *5 we announce hereby that we are not going to make any profit out of this competition. for every module you send us (sound- noise- protracker) we raise a participation charge of 5 dm. this is in order to keep the prices a bit cheaper for us... another thing is that it is of no importance in which style your music is composed or if you belong to any group, famous or non-famous. we will not accept any modules that are longer than 120.000 bytes (unpacked of course!) and we offer you the ability to write your own scrolltext that will be scrolling over the screen while your music is playing (we are so cool, aren't we?) thank you! for further very very important information carry on reading the scroller. now to the invention of the month, awarded a price by leading beer-drinkers and hell raisers: the rotating-blades hygro beer cooler. keeps your beer comfortable and at a pleasant temperature during the summer. poor scandinavians... no warm summers, no cool beer... by the way, do you know why so many scandinavians code so many demos? --- they have nothing better to do (boozing &) because the beer is so fucking expensive, so they try to code all the time. let's rap a bit.... *4 we like our beer, so we drink it here- if i were a swede, i'd be sober complete- this status i'd hate with my mind all clear, but we like booze so we drink it here! *5 that should be enough... try to find the rhythm by yourselves... in case that you are waiting for anything like credits, regards, greetings or something like this, then we can tell you that we give you the opportunity to keep on waiting a while. there is some chaos around here... = the hungry (not hungary) captain bifat just returned from his third expedition to the cheesy swamps of pizza land. first expedition: bifat ordered a pizza number 20 without cheese (he hates cheese). 30 minutes later, bifat received a pizza number 20 with (!) cheese. another phone call leads us to the second expedition: bifat complaining and asking when his replacement part will be ready. answer: 30 min. after the announced thirty minutes bifat saddled his bike and started off to + lamers pizza swamp + returning without a pizza but with a red head from anger and exhaustion! he had been told that the gay cook just started to work on his pizza (what ever this may be...) now the really hungry bifat drove off for the third time to fetch his worked hard for pizza without cheese. when he was away for about 15 minutes, we heared a loud splash followed by the noise of a bifat sliding across the street with a pizza beneath his knees.... *3 silence... *5 as you might have guessed bifat returned without a pizza.... he is right now ordering a new pizza at another pizzeria which is probably better. hehehe! if you want the ultimate pizza horror then call *2# 0049 6042 2150 *3(phreaking welcome), *5 order some junk pizzas, wait for delivery and install your microwave oven!! drop the pizzas, now some lasagna stuff... (just kidding!) if you are about to organize any party then you must contact the 'tek gatecrasher team' for the ultimate party fun... (for us, of course). if you want a state of the art and most remembered party, then you must contact us! all you have to be is to be generous and cool and liquid (beer!&!&!). the rest is our problem, or yours... cut the crap... the truth is that we are about to visit some copy-parties all over europe in the near future... so watch out if we will be there ...you probably won't miss us. some technical information again: the first edition of 'music for your taperecorder' will be released by the end of 1991 and it will be spreaded to all the famous names on the scene. a lot of people are looking forward to this disk and a lot of famous musicians announced that they are going to take part in our competition! as you see, we give you the possibility to compete with the best. ok, i take over now! who? mac the swapper-brain, of course! thanx to banana. oh, we had quite a funny time some months ago as our new school was built in our huge'n'boring city. as it was not finished we broke into to have some nice and clean fun (?) ... we began our adventure on the first floor of the really big building. chairs and tables were standing everywhere in no order at all. our first impression was: this must be a big pool! then we experienced the second floor. it was dark, really dark. then suddenly we were standing before a huge gulch. banana almost fell down because of his stadium of advanced drunkeness. suddenly the lights went on! everybody was in panic, running in all directions. unfortunately, i hit the light switch. ...very sorry for that! anyway, we continued our search for the unknown. finally we found a nice refrigerator and took it with us, also a programmable calculator and the keys to the main entrances! the electric cables and the tuborg-beers were also quite useful. then we concentrated our interest on the local gymnasium where we turned on the ventilators and ripped a trampoline (?). clean fun, isen't it! oh boy, capt. bifat is really fond of writing some of his crap.... he he he he ! okay folks, at first let's increase the speed a little bit.... *8 hehehe that looks much better.... these two lamers are in fact too slow for hyper-ingenious coders like me.... hehehe just kidding... anyway ... we were running out of coders some weeks ago and thus we had to point someone out of us to learn 68000 coding... we all were very afraid of this machine language... what a relief when i found out that it's that easy! i would have never believed that there's a freak machine out there that can be programmed in assembly language like others in basic.... well, i must admit that this demo is probably the most awful production you've ever seen, but don't care.... and always remember: if you've got no booze... you loose! *6 now, what about some boring tek history? .... well, the electronic knights were already world wide famous when suckers like red sector were still shitting into their nappies.... back in early 1986, tek released their first c64 demos, not to forget that famous ibm musics, and, of course, jammaster, that ultimate routine that could play three music channels in combination with two sample channels, including reverse playing and echoes!! at the beginning, tek consisted of two members... that was mac (swapping, ideas, graphics) and banana (coding, musics, graphics, ideas, design and the rest i forgot) ... we started with some cute little productions called ibm musics (25 overall), we released several demos .... and finally disappeared when the german cops were on our heals....! sad, sad.... but now we are back to burn into your memory cells again! slit, slash, slot! fish force rulez! credits for that heap of shit: coding by me! graphics by me! the rest by the rest! if you like it more detailed: music by banana, coding by captain bifat, graphics by captain bifat and banana, design by tek. many thanx to iraner for some hints for the coding.... in fact, he wrote the wobbling routine for the tek logo.... *5 ..... mac taking over the keyboard ..... now for the current official tek memberlist! TEK HQ Germany: = Iraner (coding) = Mac (Mailtrading, Organizing) = Banana (music, graphics) = Captain Bifat (graphics, coding) Danish Section: = Whee!
