Jamaica 02 ch04 Interview

               interview
               yo readers!

welcome to the interview of this issue.
this time i have interviewed a guy that
you probably have heard about before..
TTS/OXYRON. well, let's start!!

?= BUMBOO/JAM
!= TTS/OXYRON

?: yo tts! please tell us something
   interesting about yourself.

!: well, i don't know if there is
   something interesting about me. i'm
   21 years old, i have one brother and
   sister and i still live at my parents
   place. my hobbies are only my c64 and
   i into the local disco called ROXY.
   i am listening to independent music
   like: deine lakeien, sisters of mercy
   new model army.

?: you are now in OXYRON but how did it
   all start?

!: i started my interests in computing
   in summer 1981 at school. my first
   machine was an SINCLAIR ZX81 where i
   coded in basic. then i got my first
   c64 and i started the normal things
   like game collection and basic code.
   in autumn 1988 i started assembler
   coding. i build up the group TIF
   together with akc and sid. after
   YAZOO, tmu and red baron joined us we
   renamed into GLOOM and produced 15
   demos and some issue's of the monthly
   news. then some other dudes joined
   and at the BONZAI PARTY we renamed
   into OXYRON and we started the demo
   series COMA LIGHT. that's the story!!

?: do you think the c64 is a dying
   computer? how long do you think that
   the scene will be as big as today?

!: i think the c64 scene is GROWING at
   the moment! more and more groups are
   build up. look at the scene observer
   issue 05 under group corner. more
   than 300 GROUPS! in my opinion the
   scene will stay until there is
   friendship in the scene.

?: are you a lamer? or what is a lamer
   for you?

!: a lamer is someone who tells shit
   about other scene dudes. another kind
   of lamer is someone who thinks that
   he is coolest.

?: if oxyron die, what group would you
   like to join then?

!: i think oxyron will NEVER die, even
   if i will be the last guy in the
   scene. it's a bit of unlancholy for
   me. i think i would never leave
   oxyron, but to say some group names
   i would like to join TRANCE for
   example, coz this group is not high
   on the charts and so you have
   something to work for.

?: what do you think about disc magz?

!: in my opinion disc mags help to keep
   the scene ALIVE, coz you can be
   informed about the latest scene news
   or partys which are going to be held.
   also the charts are important coz you
   see how the scene thinks about you
   and your group.

?: what do you think about the amiga
   scene?

!: the amiga scene is growing fast but
   lots of dudes thinks that c64 is
   nothing in comparision to the amiga.
   but was has the amiga what the c64
   hasn't? for example VESTORS? no, look
   at ORIGO and HORIZON! i think the
   friendship at c64 is much better but
   there are also cool groups on amiga
   like: anarchy, silents, rebels.

?: are you in LOVE with your c64?
!: of coz i am! the birthday of my
   lovely machine is the 26.04. and
   always before i go sleeping i give
   her some KISSES. try SEX with c64!!

?: some greets?

!: well, that's difficult as i'm sitting
   in a bus in order to drive to axis.
   i want to see his new routines for
   COMA LIGHT 8. but now some brain-
   sorted greets to contacts: nuke, c18,
   incubus, venice, walker, tmm,
   bitnapper, deathstralker, carrion,
   chronos, woise, andre, mac, slator,
   elegance, drago, silver, kreator,
   pete dosset, canabis, dave, asmodis,
   testicle... other greets to some
   people i hope to meet at some soon
   comming partys: boogaloo, bob, mac,
   incubus, ecco, technoir, drax, goblin
   yup... of coz also greets to all

   who helped me in the long time since
