Skyhigh 09 ch08 The Biz-Mix
From C64 Diskmag Wiki
tha biz-mix!
yo yo yo, welcome to another edition of
'tha biz-mix!'
last time i emptied my head for a lot of
wacko thoughts.
i haven't got any feedback yet. i guess
no one disagrees then - or??
i would like to get alot of reactions on
the c-64 scene today!!
so come on dudes! sit down and shake yar
head a bit!!
let all these thoughts slip out of your
head and put 'em down in an text-editor!
no matter what editor you use i'll con-
vert it to skyhigh - format!!
so don't be shy!! every single thought
is highly appriciated!!
ok enough about the c64 scene today!!
a lot of newcomers don't know shit about
the history of the c64 and its scene.
i still remember the good old times when
we saw a lot of good and revolutionary
code from the groups.
who can remember when 1001 crew made the
first sideborderscroll or the legendary
tmc with all his great demo's such as
game-music
try take a look back and remember all
the dope routines which was invented in
the past.
routines as :
a simple split screen
(and later on rasterbars)
all borders open
esco's
fld
dycp or dysp
tech tech
hardware scroll
and some of the 'latest' inventions
vectors
plots
bobs
plasmas
fli
interlace fli
well all these routines are today
''everyday-code''
but just think back some years and
everybody would have sworn that alot of
them couldn't be done ever...
but they did anyway.....
who remember the war between sodan and
the 1001 crew. not to mention the :
federation against danish elite..
yo these were the days were we saw a lot
of cracks from groups like :
dynamic duo
a.c.e
hotline
1001 crew
the softteam
u.s.a team
a.c.c
swedish cracking crew
and the list goes on forever
well at the time there was a whole lot
more games than today. but at that time
you could make alot of money by selling
crax.
well more nostalgic talk..
try sit back and remember the times.
remember the music-wizards ..
people as
ROB HUBBARD
MARTIN GALWAY
MATT GRAY
yeeaahhh boy - these were the days...
but nowadays a lot of people don't give
a shit about things like that or a lot
don't even know about all that...
and that's wrong. so i'll try to give a
hand, and help you.
more specific then i am looking for
information about everythig concerning
the scene:
information like :
- who cracked the 1st game
- who started making intros
- who started making demos
- who made the first magazine
- which groups where at the beginning
and up to now
- which group is the oldest and still
active
- which person/group invented a new
routine (date/year)
and so on and so on ..
loooong time ago it was my idea to start
up a chapter bringing some c64-history!
i asked and encouraged people to mail me
some facts or stories from the past!!
but not much happend! - actually only 1
guy did so..
diz guy was devil of noice (yeah i guess
you've heard that name mentioned in this
magazine before!)
he collected some facts on the founding
on horizon!
he and i would like to thanx boogaloo
for the great help he has given!!
ok check it out yourself!:
- ----------------- -
in 1988 there was a fusion between
SSS and THUNDERCATS, they became HORIZON
in october '88 they discovered the fli
but never released it, the first fli
was later released by BLACK MAIL...
in the beginning of 1989 MSD (micro
systems digital technology) joined,
and ruled ever since....
they were: BOOGALOO, EXILON and RUSH.
msd's most famous demo was and still is
BONANZA, with the first D011 scroll
ever made...
in the beginning of 1990 2 more members
joined, from the at that time very cool
fairlight: pernod and judge...
horizon have always been ruling the
scene, and they still do...
their demos are known to be 2 years
ahead of all the others...
- ----------------- -
well you see.here's a lot of information
that i presume you didn't knew!!!
and that's what it's all about..
sharing stories, memories and knowledge
with eachother!
but i can't manage to do it on my own.
i need the help of all you out there.
especially the old-timers are wanted.
so come on all you out there. all you
who once in the past founded one of all
these famous groups!
who started legends like :
dominators, ikari, 1001 crew, sss, afl70
...... (and the list goes on and on!)
at the moment lot's of groups are gettin
rebuild. -groups like alphaflight 1970,
vision or the fake ikari.. there must
be someone who knows the story!!
why not share it with the rest of us??
please mail it to me and i see to that
it will be brought to the masses!
