<pre> editorial

some time ago i,biz kid released the 9th
issue of this mag!! more precise then it
was on the 29th of december 1993.

in the meantime a lot of work,phonecalls
previews, and especially coordinating
has taken place..
but now, finally it is ready..
the monster edition has been finished,
and spreaded to the best computer-scene
ever - the c64 scene!

welcome to

S K Y H I G H

issue 10

yes i proudly present the best issue of
this mag ever...
it was said to be out late february, but
i failed!!!! but i'm sure it has been
worth waiting for..
i really hate delays, but what could i
do? - i was waiting for chapters, gfx,
music and code to arrive!! some people
are more active than others. you should
know i have tried to get it finished in
time, but things didn't work out the way
they was supposed to.. but never late,
than not at all!!!

sorry anyway!!

ok no more excuses. this time i bring to
you a lot of surprises.
first the mag is 2-sided this time. the
reason for this is ofcourse : monster!!!

no the reason is that, this issue is a
kind of celebration issue.i have reached
the first magic number in the row : 10.
i wanted to celebrate it with lots of
text, tunes and surprises.
next time it will be back to normal, and
back to one side!

ok some more surprises are :

1. i proudly present a interlace-piccy
made by my cool polish friend :
cruise of elysium!

2. ten (yes 10!!!!) exclusive tunes!!!
some kind of a record eh??
check out the chapter 'thanx to' for
the composers!!
you'll also find them in this chapter
or simply look at the credit-line!

3. a small demo part by the coder who
has taken the top-spot in every mag
for a long time.
i'm ofcoz talking about tts of oxyron

4. a pac-man surprise game coded by :
raz of camelot!!

5. an exclusive 'skyhigh 10' cover by
my cool german friend :
earthquake of antic & cosmic style!!
(if you haven't got it then contact
me and i'll mail you one as long as i
have some copies!!!)

6. finally i have made a new logo for
the upscroller!! what do you think
about it??

furthermore some new chapters has been
invented.

besides the usual chapter written by raz
and me, you will find a music-chapter by
pri and then a new invention called :
'oxy-intern' (an idea invented by rrr!)

also the chart-chapter has been improved
from now on it'll be edited by scrapper!
so you can except a much higher chart-
quality in the future!!!
and this time i have made a special mega
chart chapter as well!!!

well i better not reveal more for now!
better check it out yourselves!!

by the way

the chapter from 'raz' will first be in
next issue!
caused by some serious work on his uni-
versity, lots of reports and his new
girl he had to delay this issue a bit..
i know he feel rather rotten about this!

BUT i'm the first one to tell him that
his study, his love and his real life
ofcoz has a higher priority than getting
this mag releases right on time!!

but the fact that he has coded all night
(16 hours with no sleep, and then off to
university) to get this issue finished,
caused that he couldn't manage to write
his chapter aswell!!

but he asked me to write this :

i, raz, am very sorry that i couldn't
manage to write my chapter this time.
to make it up to you, i'll write a long
chapter or maybe even two for the next
issue...
enjoy the pac-man game until next time!!

- -- --- ------------------ --- -- -

as you might know by now then our second
magazine 'addybook' is dead!!!
the reasons were among others : no time
and inspiration; but also to concentrate
on one super mag than two good ones!!!

machine has left oxyron and the c64 for-
ever.. he has joined the army and he
will never return to the c64, but maybe
on the pc!!!

you mike (machine!!) thanx for the great
time we had.. i hope you'll have a good
time in the army, and i hope we'll meet
at every party there'll be!!!
just remember to party on my friend!!

i would also like to welcome the 3 new
skyhigh co-editors : scrapper, pri & rrr
i know we will have a cool time here as-
well. now we are able to make this mag a
winner!!

- -- --- ------------------ --- -- -

i'm stunned about the speed this mag is
rising in the charts! we really has gone
"skyhigh" lately!!
in reformation #8 by fairlight 'skyhigh'
took the 4th place!
in nitro #15 by excess 'skyhigh' even
made it to the 2nd position!!!! cooool!

thanx everybody out there!!! it really
makes me happy to see you like it that
much... i hope you will enjoy this just
as much as the previous issue!!!

well it seems that skyhigh, maybe, has
made a new standard for mags!!
i'm talking about the key-controlling!!

jamaica from jam has now installed the
key-controller aswell! coool..

i hope more mags will follow, coz it is
much easier and more comfortable to con-
trol the mag like this. instead of the
useal search for your joydick ( which
often lays somewhere on the floor!) you
are able to use the mag at once!!!
besides you are able to control the mag
with one hand and in the same time drink
a beer with the other! well who can ask
for more?? way to go...

poeba and i had the same idea of a b-day
chapter in our mags (skyhigh + narcotic)
but it seems that someone has jumped on
the bandwagon!!!!!
poeba even says that someone is ripping
off our birthdates!!!
(he had made a fake birthday in his mag,
and later he found it in another mag!!)
i can't remember which mag who ripped it
(ask poeba if you want to know!!)
well i don't say that i or we invented
this idea, but it's a bit dissapointing
to see someone use the same idea, and
then even rip off our dates!!!

i don't accuse anybody becoz i simply
can't remember which mag who did it! but
i'm kinda dissapointed !!!

how low can you go?

well never mind, it is a free world we
live in..

- -- --- ------------------ --- -- -

i guess everybody know by now that the
party in sweden is cancelled!!!!

yes there will NOT be any easterparty in
g0teborg on april 1st.
but otha parties will take place instead

check out the party-invitation chapter
somewhere in this mag!!!

i, biz kid has done something bad!!!
i have stolen a party-invitation from
another mag... rip kid!!!!!

no i prefer not to call it stealing...
why ? becoz i have done it to help my
good dutch friends :

nastiness & mistress of entropy

i'm trying to help them with spreading
their inviation to their entropy-party
later this year (check out the chapter
for more information !!)
furthermore i don't see this as ripping
first i do it to help some good friends
of mine. they and i would like you (only
c64 sceners) to come to this cool party
in holland. second i have written two
times now that i'm doing this to help
and to see to, that as many of you will
be there.. furthermore all credits are
given to the entropy magazine 'TRIBUNE'
and it's editors nastiness & mistress.

by the way try to get the latest issue
of this great mag!!!
and remember to be at the entropy party
aswell. i'm already saving up money!!

see you all there!!

- -- --- ------------------ --- -- -

as mentioned before then i'm always look
ing for exclusive music for this mag..

besides being used in the mag, i will
spread them together with the issue whe-
re they are used !!!
you will ofcoz be credited like hell.

so far i have been able to release 2-3
issue with 3 exclusive tunes each!!!
this time i managed 2 bring 10 exclusive
tunes (monster-edition surprise!!)

well, i better give you the titles and
the composers of the 10 tunes!!

1 'blow of fate' by pri/tia/oxyron 1

2 'the boss' by peace/oxyron 2

3 'for skyhigh' by zyron/antic 3

4 'soul sister' by doxx/noice 4

5 'skyhigh 1' by chris/xentrix 5

6 'fun we look 4' by cubehead/chaos 6

7 'exclusive 2' by decoy/excess 7

8 'promised' by the syndrom/tia/crest 8

9 'pussycat' by smc/tia/pretzel logic 9

10 'solitudine' by jvd/focus 10

thanx to you all. you really do a great
job my friends!!!
your help is very much appriciated...

- -- --- ---- --- -- -

if you are a composer, and you want to
make a tune for me (and skyhigh!) then
just follow these simple rules :

location : $1000 to $1fff

init : $1000
jsr : $1003

please try to give 'em a proper name..
it's a bit boring for the readers to see
names as 'exlusive' or 'for skyhigh' all
the time. get the drift!!!

so far these fabulous composers has made
an exclusive tune (or more!) for skyhigh

the syndrom/tia/crest
echo/bass/comic pirates
jvd/focus
tragic error/tia
pri/tia/oxyron
red devil/fairlight
decoy/excess
zyron/antic
chris/xentrix
doxx/noice
cubehead/chaos
peace/oxyron
smc/tia/pretzel logic

what about being a part of this coool
list? if yes the send your tune to:

BIZ KID/OXYRON
