WITTY'S CHAPTER ========######### hello and feel welcome once a- gain to another chapter witty's. this time i will speak more about the australian scene in general, and not as much about our country as it seems the last two times i have done this chapter i have spo- ken not much of the australian scene.so to start... let me tell you of the groups currently in australia.fully made groups are lithium,bodycount,tsr, paralax,breeze designs,hype,bat- tery,msr,false motion(ex-force) and probably some more.but they a- re certainly the main ones. also...there are certain divi- sions of groups such as wow,clique triad...(and once illusion...) so things are not all that bad in this country at the moment.now i will tell you about some of the- se groups. LITHIUM:has some good members like druid(one of the best coder in a- ustralia),slortibartfast(probably the coder who gave battery most of its fame and a great coder),cruze, decoy,me(witty-but also in wow) and more(a new zealand section). allup probably one of the best in the aussie scene and could become number 1 if they release enough of there quality. BODYCOUNT:this group is good too. it has the best aussie musicians in it.(namely pearl/bodycount)also has a nice mag called vandalism news.but the group is let down a bit with coders.but recently psyc- ho(ex-force) joined them.so he should add some spark with his re- al time vectors,plasmas etc.allup, a good group in australia which also is up there with lithium and could be number one if they relea- se! TSR:well...not a bad group.this is probably where the majority of the scene comes from.incubus used to be the main coder in tsr,but left the scene.so i don't know if they still have a good coder?but yet their magazine the link still li- ves on.tsr was ince the most pro- mising groups on the 64 aussie scene,but seems to have died in the bum a bit since members lea- ving.but good old uptonogood(lea- der) keeps on fighting on.keep it going!! PARALAX:another big group like tsr they are ok,but only seem to make cracks.(as they have no coders?) well they could be a good group if they tried with guys like qwetzel who can do world firsts.but it is just the lazyness factor i guess. overall,an ok group but too many lame members. MSR:has a good coder in tbm...but as active as blackmail(hehe)...but still the group has talent if they want to use it. HYPE:news has it that only deadbo- ne is the only member left.but he is a good graphixman,so they will live as long as he can draw some- thing i guess.(and get a displayer coded...) BREEZE:has a major aussie talent, who draws,composes and codes all in the one breathe as its sole member.yep(metro) is a very capab- le guy of getting breeze in the top 3 groups in australia by him- self but he will have to be very active i think.maybe if he got so- me more kicking members in breeze it would be a very good group! FALSE MOTION:this is the group so called formed by the old force members.but i can't see much po- tential here,as they are too inac- tive.(even though they have good yet old scener members.) no more comments from me.but just some news and rumours. the magazine violation may re- turn to the scene,as 8-ball,maxell slash/ex-cure are expected to re- turn to the scene.they are rumou- red to come back soon,form a new group with caine/hype and release it.(hope so...bcoz violation is a great magazine,which is quite un- deratted through europe and deser- ves more recognition.) caine/hype supposingly rang up metro/breeze to ask him if he wo- uld ask deadbone/hype into his group,bcoz he don't like him.(for some reason,something has crawled high into caines ass and he has turned into a dickweed.)don't ask me why but he seems to have some- thing against everyone in austalia (even me-which i don't have the slightest clue about) smarten up caine.you are a good grafixer,co- der,but don't abuse that fact.what caused the change? psycho/bodycount has a demo planned for release in april 93.it is supposingly gonna have real ti- me vectors,plasmas and much more cool stuff. jeroen tel is supposingly co- ming to australia later in the ye- ar(or next year) and there will be a big party hopefully in newcastle around the time...(the first aus- sie party in two years!?!?!) so that ends this chapter for this month.if this chapter is re- leased before horizon/party remem- ber us aussies here,and how we would really like to be there me- eting you all...(but unfortunately that can't be with expensive air prices throughout the world!so you must come here!!!! must run.regards... witty of wow+ltm give us feedback!!!! for everything with this corner and swapping write to: witty/wow XXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
