THIS DEMO WAS A CRAP TO CODE - BUT THE FUCKING INTERFACE BETWEEN THE SOUNDROUTINE AND THE CONTROL-SYSTEM MADE MY SLEEP RESTLESS.....                     SORRY 4 THE LATE RELEASE DATE, BUT IN THE STYLE COUNCIL SCROLLTEXT WRITING TOOKS A MULTIPLE TIME OF THE CODING TIME (ABOUT 100) - COZ WE ARE SO LAZY.... GOOD SCROLLTEXT WRITING IS LAMER-WORK - WHAT SHALL A LAMER DO ELSE IN A GROUP ? IF YA READ THINGS LIKE GIRLS AND PARTIES IN A SCROLLTEXT YOU CAN BE 100 PERCENT SURE THAT A BLOODY LAMER IS TALKING..... A GOOD CODER HAS NOT GOT THE TIME AND THE BRAIN FOR SUCH PRIMITVE THINGS...HE HE HE....               WELL ABOUT MUSIC.... MY FAVOURITE MUSICIANS ON AMIGA ARE.... 1. ESPRIT (WHO ELSE ?) --- 2. UNCLE TOM (SCOOPEX, NICE MELODIES) --- 3. 4MAT (ANARCHY, GOODS RHYTHMS) --- THESE ARE THE BEST COMPOSERS, NO COMPARISON WITH THE STUPID DISCO-PISSERS OF MANY GROUPS - THEY CREATE ONE PATTERN OF MUSIC, ARE REPLAYING IT 100 TIMES AND THEN THEY ARE CALLED MUSICIANS - PAH - WE WOULD CALL EM PISSERS.....                     SUMTHING ELSE... HI TO AVENGER.....384KG HAMBURGERS FOR YOUR MEGADEMO ? ARE YOU CULTURED HUMANS OR JUST LIVING TRASHCANS ???

DO FEEL VERY WELCOME TO MY FIRST MUSIC-DISK ON AMIGA. I HOPE YOU LIKE THIS AUSTRIAN AURAL ARRANGEMENT. FIRST I MUST SAY, THAT THE MUSIC SCENE ON C64 WAS MUCH MORE BETTER, BECAUSE YOU HAD TO KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT THE SID, WAVEFORMS, ENVELOPE AND SO ON. BUT ON AMIGA I THINK ITS TOO EASY AND EVERYBODY BELIEVES THAT HE IS THE ULTIMATE MUSICIAN.     TAKE A NICE BASSDRUM, SOME KIND OF SNARE AND A BASS-SOUND, LOAD IT INTO THE SOUNDTRACKER, SHAKE YOUR AMIGA AND THE NEW MEGA-SONG IS READY.      WELL I HATE THIS, AND HORRIFYING, THE SAME IS TRUE OF SOME SOFTWARE HOUSES. HEY UBI-SOFT, YOUR GREAT COURTS IS VERY NICE BUT THE INTRO SONG IS COMPLETE SHIT. (THE ONLY USE INSTRUMENTS OF ST-01)   BUT NOW TO SOMETHING MORE PLEASANT.  ALL THE SONGS WERE PRODUCED WITH THE NOISETRACKER OF MAHONEY+KAKTUS. IT WAS MY INTENTION NOT TO MAKE THE USUAL DISCO SHIT, BUT SOMETHING ELSE. NOW FOLLOWING A LITTLE DESCRIPTION OF THE INDIVIDUAL SONGS. SELECT THE CONCERNING ONE, SO THAT YOU CAN BETTER UNDERSTAND ME.          SUM SWING :  WHEN I COMPOSED THIS TUNEI HAD ONLY ST-01 AND ST-02. AT FIRST I DID NOT WANT TO USE ANY PERCUSSIONAT ALL. BUT THEN I COULD NOT STAND TO INCLUDE SOME DRUMS. EVERYBODY WHO KNOWS, WHAT SWING IS NOW WILL CRY. OF COURSE, I KNOW THAT ITS NO REAL SWING, BUT THE WALKING BASS IN THE MIDDLE MADE ME NAME IT THIS WAY.I WROTE THIS TUNE IN AN OLD TRACKER WITHOUT THE PATTERN-BREAK FUNCTION. OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE MADE OF COURSE A REAL SWING. (AND NOW I HAVE MADE SOME SWING TUNES, WHICH WILL BE ON FURTHER MUSIC DISKS)         BAROQUE BYTES:   SIMPLE AS THE NAME, A LITTLE TUNE WHICH WAS CREATED, BECAUSE I WANTED TO USE THE INSRUMENT AHHVOX ON ST-02. SOME NICE CHORDS. AGAIN ONLY SAMPLES OF ST-02.         FORMAL FUNK:  ONE OF RAYS FAVOURITE TUNES. IN THIS TUNE I USED THE NEW SAMPLES I GOT, AND FUCK, I HAD TO MAKE IT TWICE, BECAUSE AT THE FIRST TIME THE COMPUTER CRASHED AND I HAD TO RECOMPOSE IT NEXT DAY. (ALL USERS OF SOUNDTRACKER WILL FEEL WITH ME). FUNKY BASS, NICE ENDING.         BLUES:   REVOLUTION OF BASS SOUNDS. I RIPPED THE INSTRUMENT ELECTRICBASS OUT OF AN INTRO OF THE NUKEBUSTERS. I THINK THIS IS THE BEST BASS SOUND I HAVE (I AM MALTREATING THE BASS GUITAR, YOU KNOW) AND YOU WILL FIND IT IN MANY SONGS OF ME BECAUSE, IT FITS VERY WELL TO EVERY KIND OF PERCUSSION. THE OTHER SAMPLES MOSTLY WERE RIPPED FROM THE BRILLIANT RED SECTOR MEGA-DEMO. WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE GUITAR-LEAD SOUND ? I LIKED IT VERY MUCH, BUT I MUST HAVE HEARD IT ABOUT 200 TIMES AND I CANT HEAR IT ANYMORE.         BIT OF BLASTIN:  ITS REALLY NOT MY STYLE TO WRITE SUCH TUNES BUT I GOT TWO DISKS FULL OF ACID-SAMPLES AND I MIXED THEM IN THIS SONG. I WOULD NOT CALL THIS REAL MUSIC, BUT PLAYING WITH SAMPLES. AFTER ALL, IT WAS QUITE FUN TO MAKE IT. YOU MIGHT THINK THAT IT IS A BIT TO SHORT. OF COURSE YOU ARE RIGHT, BUT I HAD TO FINISH IT BECAUSE OF LACK OF MEMORY. (THE SAMPLES KILL ABOUT 250 KBYTE).         AND LAST BUT NOT AT LEAST AT ALL:  KIND OF EARTH. THE NAME COMES FROM ONE OF MY FAVOURITE GROUPS    EARTH, WIND AND FIRE.  THE ALWAYS HAVE A FASCINATING RHYTHM AND I TRIED TO REALIZE IT WITH MY LITTLE FACILITIES. I THINKS ITS RATHER COOL. AGAIN NEW AND BETTER SAMPLES. THIS IS A TYPICAL EXAMPLE FOR THE ELECTRICBASS, I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I MEAN.                THIS WAS ALL CONCERNING THE TUNES. NOW SOME DETAILS ABOUT MY PERSON, IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, IF NOT LOOK AWAY OR SWITCH OF YOUR COMMY.  WELL I AM 17 YEARS OLD (AT THIS MOMENT, CHANGING) AND ATTEND THE GYMNASIUM, 7TH FORM (OUT OF 8). MY FAVOURITE LESSONS ARE: MATHS, LATIN (!) AND MUSIC. I AM PLAYING THE BASS GUITAR, (PULL) TROMBONE AND EUPHONIUM. MY FATHER IS THE LEADER OF ONE OF THE BEST AUSTRIAN BIGBANDS AND MY BROTHER IS STUDYING JAZZ (SAXOPHONE) IN VIENNA.           IF YOU LIKE MY SONGS OR WANT TO SWAP SAMPLES OR MODULES OR (MUSIC)-UTILITIES THEN WRITE TO ME. I AM NOT INTERESTED IN ANY FORM OF MEGA-GAME-SWAPPING. ONLY WRITE TO ME IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING CONCERNING SOUND. AT THIS TIME I HAVE ABOUT 20 SAMPLE-DISKS (STEADILY INCREASING) AND I AM ALWAYS LOOKING FOR NEW ONES.  WRITE TO THE FOLLOWING ADRESS:   ROBERT BACHNER   FORSTERWEG 4   4651 STADL-PAURA   AUSTRIA          I SUPPOSE, VERY SOON WE CAN RELEASE OUR SECOND SOUND DISK, BECAUSE THE NEW TUNES ARE ALMOST FINISHED. THERE WILL BE A LITTLE PIANO SESSION (SOUNDS VERY GOOD), THEN A NEW FASCINATING RHYTHM SWING AND MANY OTHER TUNES WHICH WELL BE MUCH BETTER (IF POSSIBLE) THAN THESE ONES. SO LOOK OUT FOR IT.   THANX FOR READING THIS CRAP AND HAVE A NICE DAY.
