hockey, and sumtimes i'll just take
the bus to gothenburg and go to a

+ how did it all start?
- good question, it began, i think, when
my friend moved to our town, and then
it was quite fun with a computer, we
played a bit, but i wanted to try to
code sumthing (in basic ofcoz), and
he said like: noo boring, but i said
that i knew how to make a porno game,
and then he thougt, yeah cool make one
i didn't know shit 'bout basic but i
started typing sum shit and there was
actually no errors, but it was no
porno-game, i can tell ya, and that's
the way we began programming basic
back in 1986-87 l8r we began a bit
with ml, and so on and now, you see
dreams can come true...
+ when did you enter the scene, and in
which groups have ya been ?
- in 1989, me and 2 friends started a
group called big size, we later
changed name to xl, and the status was
devil, lone wolf, macho and rat.
then in 1990 i joined the noice crew,
and that's probably the reason why
i'm still on this machine.

+ well that was the faves, and among 'em
was favourite friends.
what about dudes you hate/dislike in
the scene. ?
if you got some please tell us who -
and why you don't like them !
- i don't think i hate anyone, i don't
dislike any special person, but those
who think that they are the best, and
doesn't care about friend ship, in
general, those who can't handel to get
well known or famous in the scene.
+ what is your plans for the future ?
both in the scene and in private !
- well, i've been working on a game
and i will try to finish that, i'll
graduate from school, and code sum
more demoparts and utilitys.
+ when the c64 dies(hopefylly many years
from now !!!!) what will you do then ?
jump to the (l)amiga or pc. ?
or simply quit the whole compy-scene?
- if i buy another computer it will most
certainly be a pc, but i don't know
i'll try to keep in touch with my
friends anyhow....
+ please tell me what a lamer is in your
opinion ?
- it's as i said in the dislike question
a person who thinks he's the coolest,
and won't help those who might not be
so good on coding or what ever he is
doing, knowing is a gift, share it!!
+ what do you think about the -
'elite contra lame' thing ?
is there anything we can do about it?
- hmmm, well no one is elite until other
people say he is, but i don't think
it's much to care about elite and lame
coz it has always been there and it
probably always will be, i try to
look up on people in the scene as
friends, not as elite or lame, thoug
some of'em are better than other, but
some people will always be better than
other, you can't do anything about
that.
+ about your contacts
-------------------
+ do ya have a lot of contacts ?
(how many - name a few.)
- well, since i'm really not a swapper i
can't say that i have so many contacts
my contacts are: biz kid, authentic,
artsi, maja, nantco bakker, cruzer,
pri, storm lord, jazzcat and kevin.
+ do you prefer legal stuff or cracks
or mayby both from your contacts.
- i don't care realy, friendship is
numer uno. (you're damn right -bk!)
+ do you use cheated stamps ?
- no.
+ why not?
- i don't have so many contacts, so i
can afford to be legal.
+ about demos : do ya like 'em ?
is there to many or to few ?
- love'em well, it would be nice with
sum more, but there isn't much to do
on this one as 3-4 years ago and i
mean a group can't create 10 good
demos per year.
+ and the same for mags ?
- like'em, but it takes time to read all
the stuff in the mags...
+ if you had the opportunity to build up
a new group - which persons would you
like to join ?
- honestly i think i'ld like to rebuild
noice, due to great friendship between
c-64, amiga and pc sections. but i can
give you an mix.
