NEWSCOPY OF GENESIS PROJECT NEWSCOPY OF GENESIS PROJECT ___________________________ GIVE US A DESCRIPTION AND SOME PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOURSELF! Very well.Some irrelevant facts about my humble revelation. My first name is Per, last name Verted. I'm 19 years of age, though some call me senile. Wonder why really? I meassure 187 cm, 76 kg, have red hair, blue eyes, though my friends say I look like GASTON(Hi Soda!). At current time, I live in Gothenburg, Sweden, all to all a nice place, but I have spent a long time of my life in the wonderful state of Virginia, USA. I'm studying Natural Sciences, though it really bugs me down. My one big passion in life is women, though I'm getting to appreciate smoking and money a lot lately. NOW TELL US SOMETHING THAT MOST PEOPLE DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU. SHARE A SECRET! I didn't enjoy Wayne's World. Haha, seriously, I don't know. Well, might be, I'm writing a book about the scene and it's history out of different angles, and a pusblisher has already shown major interest in the script so far. There I said it! Who knows, I might be interviewing YOU one of these days! TELL US ABOUT YOUR PAST IN THE 64 SCENE LEADING UP TO THE TIME YOU JOINED G*P. Fair enough. Got hold of this 8-bitter in the early 8O's, as a follow up to my lovely VIC 2O. I found it fabulous, but I had no interest in anything but its capabilities and whatever they brought. In late '86/early '87, I ended up in THE SILENTS, basically doing nothing of importance but supplying. In late 1988, I joined the German EXACT, thru my mate Hookie/EXACT, who lived in the UK. Sad thing was, he was my main connection in the group, so when TCC, Delta and the guys joined RSI on the Amiga and the leader Fill disappeared, me and Hookie kept it up a anyway, doing a bit of coding here, a bit of cracking there. I had a lot of fine friends then. Some are left, some not. In late 1989, I got fed up with the crap and basically quit the scene. I kept supplying one of the major groups with originals during my 2 years of absence until I decided I was hungry for the cake again. In 1991, I returned, somehow ended up in JOY DIVISION but it proved a mistake. I got to know Sodapop through his board and a few others of importance. When VISION was rebuilt, I was asked to join and I accepted. In VSN I met Jucke, whom I teamed up with and became a rapid friend. Somehow, I met up with Skinhead, and we decided to form Caladan, in my eyes a project bound to die from the start, so I brought myself to my senses and ended up in G*P where I found the best of friends. Sadly enough, I barely crack nowadays. I figure it was so long ago, I probably couldn't match today's leading talents anyway. However, these are the days worth living. A very shortened outline. DO YOU HAVE A SPECIAL GIRL IN YOUR LIFE AND IF SO, HOW DOES SHE REACT TO YOUR SCENE-ACTIVITIES? That would have to be mom then!She cooks me dinner, cleans up my mess and never backstabs me! Haha. Nah,seriously at the moment I'm single. But I firmly believe I would have to compromise if I had a steady relationship going, but of course not letting one of my hobbies down the drain.However,you never know.I met this gorgeous girl a couple of weeks ago. I might end up doing something I wouldnt want to. Hopefully not. WHAT WAS THE CRAZIEST THING YOU EVER DID I don't know really. The list keeps growing by the minute, and no particular occurence comes to mind. One of the strangest things however, would be at my birthday, when my friends took me out and forced me to say 'I'd like to fuck you hard' to A NOT SO lovable woman. And she didn't even flinch! She just nodded and wanted us to go home. Newscopy went as red as his hair! ** TELL US YOUR FAVORITES ** \/ \/ FOOD............A goddamn Steak DRINK...........Mountain Dew/Dr.Pepper MOVIE...........Psycho BOOK............Candide By Voltaire DISKMAG.........Shock ACTRESS.........Diane Keaton ACTOR...........Gene Hackman MUSIC...........KISS, Pink Floyd 64 GAME.........Mule, Alter Ego IMPORTING GROUP.Empire DEMO GROUP......Judges MUSICIAN........Rob Hubbard PLACE...........Virginia, USA PRIVATE FANTASY.Turning into a donut HOW DID YOU COME TO USE THE HANDLE NEWSCOPY? By golly, it is a stupid name, isn't it? I met my destiny, taking shape of Clark Gable, but I figure that handle wasn't cool enough. And neither was Ronald Reagan. IF YOU HAD AN UNLIMITED AMOUNT OF MONEY FOR ONLY ONE DAY, WHAT WOULD YOU USE IT ON? Buy off and corrupt the whole goddamn scene. Isn't that all it's about? And perhaps I might add some Dr.Pepper. WHAT WAS YOUR MOST EMBARESSING MOMENT EVER? Might have been after a major fight, talking out with my former girlfriend, only to realize I was talking to her mother on the phone. I have done worse, but you wouldn't want to know. WHAT ARE YOUR FUTURE PLANS ASIDE FROM THE SCENE? Hopefully sticking around until the very end, and getting up the project on the Famciom/Super NES in the not too far distant. Furthermore, I hope to get my Amigamusic sold soon, and get that going on the SuperNES as well. WHAT'S YOUR OPINION OF THE U.S/CANADIAN IMPORTING GROUPS? Well, they used to be the gamehorny guys a few years ago, but opinions changed, and the Euro's are the ones itching for 1streleases. The Yanks are all to all nice, but it's sad seeing so few groups. I'd love seeing more competitors. WHO ARE YOUR MOST LIKED AND RESPECTED PEOPLE IN THE SCENE? My best friends, still at the scene would be Sodapop, Jucke, Tronic, Oliver, Skinhead, Gerwin/FLT, Cash/Vision God of Thunder, Solar, Chameleon and YOU. I respect the ones who are capable of keeping up their names and projects with pride and dignity. AND MOST DISLIKED? I don't like putting a stamp on people, but I've met a few complete assholes during the years. The other day, I found out that one of my best friends(!) far back, Razor/Oneway backstabbed me ages ago. I hate dishonesty. DO YOU HAVE ANY LAST WORDS THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH US? By golly, I hope not. This is killing me! However, hope to meet you all in Aars, Denmark around the Christmas- days. Now that's a party! And go dial Paradize.
