Check out http://www.blacksmoke.org for freebie mp3s of Jimmy Cautys current work, btw. Not forgetting that they should also watch the flash video for "Gimpo Gimpo", based on Gimpo's epic 25 hour non stop journey around and around the M25 London orbital motorway in a white Transit van. &q...

I'm speaking of "Ducks" by TAT - you know the one "all the people on the left, wam bam boogie" etc etc. :) Apart from having the original demo on floppy (courtesy of the Kenz Binary Zone Emporium), I don't have it to listen to on my PC. When Waz was in charge of the HVSC collect...

I totally agree with Jan about Winamp3 though. It's pants (or bobbins as Waz might say) :) Indeed, I'd use that word as an understatement where Winamp3 is concerned. I downloaded it once, installed it, used it and thought like Butthead: "what the hell is this crap?". Bah. Winamp 2.80 work...

Chances are that I wont be making the reunion (boo!) cos I start a new job a week Monday (yay!) and it may be difficult to get time off in the first month. Ill make arrangments at another time if I dont make it to catch up with some of you... Well you know whenever you fancy a trip down to Manchest...

We have a good idea now what the plan is, so in the next few days i'll put up a page about the thing. I'll drop you a mail anyway Neil, but I do think some of them visiting might just want to see the Ocean logo-ed building. It's history, man! Not least for some of us... And no Chris, I can't take i...

The idea would be for us all to meet up on the Satuday 29th of November around noon time so we can have a few pints and a bite to eat. (That'd be the official time of the gathering) Easy solution: if everyone likes Chinese, meet at Buffet City around the corner on Portland Street for all you can ea...

Is The Blob Shop still there Waz? Nope. Got renamed a few years ago and has gone really downhill now, don't even bother with it. I was thinking, we could actually hire somewhere on the Saturday night. I'm sure if I remember correctly that Font on New Wakefield Street (just behind Manchester Oxford ...

Warren or anyone else in the know:.... We need a pub ofcourse, so any tips for a great meeting place prefferably near the train station? Is this on the Friday night? If so, most of you will be coming into Manchester Piccadilly station, I imagine. Now to be honest, there aren't that many pubs near t...

We had lunch on Saturday in a great all-you-can-eat Chinese which was an incredibly cheap £5.50 per person. The selection & quality at the buffet was excellent Indeedy. The place concerned is Buffet City on Portland Street. It's not been open that long but the food is most excellent, and bec...

I'm sorry you feel that way, DHS. A real shame especially as I happen to like the tune: * It's a demo tune that no one has attempted before, so no one will know how it's going to be remixed. That's up to your individual style to do. For having the guts and bravery to take my challenge on of doing so...

> isn't the music in Barbarian 2 some kind of movie cover? No, and Richard would give you a long hard glare for suggesting it! Indeed, and Richard knows how to glare, especially at Bouff! He composed the music to Barbarian 2 in Ubik's Musik too, some feat considering the limitations of the editor, ...

so why do you all sit and complain and yet on the remix request board nothing is actually put down there? Infamous, Part of the point of my article was also aiming a shot at the public and the requesters to not just request the same stuff but also to listen to a more broad range of C64 tunes and re...

Since this morning on certain web pages I keep getting various "run-time" errors when I access the page. Try the following: go to Tools/Internet Options - click the Advanced tab and go the browsing section. Make sure disable script debugging is ticked and also display notification about s...

Oh, and Hunter's Moon is also pretty darn good. Understatement. I love that game. I particularly liked the sound effects which almost sounded like human voices, especially the way he used the ring modulation to almost go "Hiya" as one of the effects. Excellent Matt Gray tune in that one a...

Yes, there are. And to help out a little, I'd like to give everyone a small excerpt of those VARIOUS tunes which are on my playlist all the time. Nice selection indeed, I have to say. I'd be quite happy to hear any of those remixed. For optimum hearing pleasure on PC, use Sidplay 2, but you already...
