ARTLINE DESIGNS IS BACK IN FORM OF A MUSIC COLLECTION, DONE IN TRUE OLDSKOOL STYLE AS NOTHING ELSE IS POSSIBLE, AT LEAST FOR ME, FLEX. AS A CHERRY IN THE CAKE SCORPION IS BACK PRESENTING HIS UNRELEASED TUNE FROM THE 90'S. BEFORE SCORPION TAKES OVER THE SCROLLTEXT, LET ME TELL YOU A FEW THINGS ABOUT THE SONGS I'VE COMPOSED... ' MANIAC ' IS MY VERSION OF MICHAEL SEMBELLO'S SONG FROM THE MOVIE FLASHDANCE. TUNE 5 ' FIELDS ' IS A COVER OF A FINNISH TUNE ' SINA VAIN ' BY TAUSKI PELTONEN. YOU COULD SAY THIS COLLECTION IS ALL ABOUT BRINGING BACK THE MELODIC SID-STYLE OF THE OLDSKOOL ERA... I'LL GET BACK TO YOU LATER AND NOW IT'S TIME FOR ... SCORPION ... HI FOLKS, THIS IS SCORPION ON THE KEYBOARD. IT HAS BEEN A LONG LONG TIME SINCE MY PREVIOUS SCROLLTEXT IN THE GOOD OLD C64... FIRST I'D LIKE TO PEERHAPS SAY A FEW WORDS ABOUT MY TUNES IN THIS COLLECTION. BOTH WERE WRITTEN WITH MY MUSIC PLAYER, ALTHOUGH WITH DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF IT. THE FIRST ONE, SHAMELESS, WAS NEVER REALLY OFFICIALLY RELEASED ANYWHERE AS FAR AS I CAN REMEMBER, BUT ANYWAYS I FOUND ITS WAY OUT TO THE SCENE. THE NAME SHAMELESS WAS GIVEN BY ME NOT LONG AGO TO HIGHLIGHT THE FACT THAT THE SOUNDS AND THE BASS AND ARPEGGIOS ARE PRETTY MUCH STOLEN FROM A DRAX TUNE, AND ONLY THE MELODY WAS MADE ANEW. STILL I KIND OF LIKE THE TUNE. THE SECOND TUNE,PREVIOUSLY WITH NO NAME BUT NOW DUBBED 'SHORT PAUSE' WAS ACTUALLY RELEASED IN THE ASSEMBLY 1995 PARTY INVITATION DEMO WHEN I WAS A MEMBER OF THE SHARKS. THE TUNE ITSELF WAS IN THE NOTE PART OF THE INVITATION, AND PROBABLY WAS LEFT UNNOTICED BY MANY. I THINK THIS TUNE IS MY BEST ONE, ALTHOUGH A SHORT ONE. THE REASON FOR THIS ONE IS THE LITTLE DETAILS HERE AND THERE IN THE TUNE, ESPECIALLY THE SHORT PAUSE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SONG. NOT SURPRISINGLY, THIS IS WHERE THE NAME FOR THE SONG COMES FROM. ALSO, THE VALUE OF THIS SONG FOR ME IS PROBABLY HIGHER THAN MANY OF THE OTHER ONES AS I COMPOSED IT BY MYSELF FROM THE SCRATCH. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO THE SOUNDS. MOST IMPORTANTLY, THOUGH, I AM VERY HAPPY ABOUT OUR MUSIC PLAYER AS THE SOUND QUALITY VS. USED MEMORY FOOTPRINT AND ESPECIALLY RASTERTIME WAS RATHER GOOD, AT LEAST BACK IN 1990... WHAT COMES TO MYSELF, I HAVE BEEN VERY FORTUNATE IN THE SENSE THAT AFTER MY TIMES IN THE SCENE - IN MANY WAYS, DUE TO MY INTEREST IN COMPUTERS AND THE C64 SCENE - I GOT MY MASTER OF SCIENCE DEGREE IN COMPUTER AND INFORMATION ENGINEERING, AND ENDED UP WORKING WITH CUTTING EDGE CELLULAR TECHNLOGIES. DURING THESE TIMES I'VE MET WONDERFUL PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD, LEARNED A GREAT LOT ABOUT TECHNOLOGY, CREATED AND BEEN PART OF CREATING SEVERAL PATENTS AND IN THE PROCESS MADE A DECENT LIVING FOR MY FAMILY. FOR MORE ON MY EXPERIENCES ON THE C64 SCENE AS WELL AS OTHER INTERESTING STUFF, PLEASE SEE C64.COM FOR A RATHER COMPREHENSIVE INTERVIEW. FINALLY, I WOULD LIKE TO SAY A WARM HELLO TO ALL THOSE I'VE MET OR IN GENERAL BEEN IN CONTACT WITH DURING MY TIMES IN THE C64 SCENE. I WILL NOT, ALBEIT TEMPTED, EXTEND ANY SPECIAL GREETINGS HERE. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. SCORPION OUT. FLEX IS BACK.. SOME OF YOU HAVE ALREADY HEARD TUNE 'AVIATOR' AND 'HIGH SCORE MAN', BUT I PUT THEM HERE A LITTLE BIT FIXED. MEANING THE SOUNDS.. YOU SEE CODEWISE THIS COLLECTION IS NOT STRONG, BUT BELIEVE ME THAT GETTING EVEN THIS FAR HAS TAKEN SOME SERIOUS HACKING INTO MY OLD CODED STUFF TRYING TO REMEMBER HOW THINGS WERE DONE.. 'GOLD DUST' IS A TUNE THAT SOMEHOW STARTED TO DEVELOPE LIKE ITSELF, I DON'T REMEMBER MAKING A TUNE THAT EASILY EVER BEFORE.. HOPE YOU'VE READ THE FRESH ' RECOLLECTION 3 ' AS THERE YOU CAN FIND INTERVIEWS OF BOTH ME AND ROCKSTAR, ADDED TO SCORPION'S C64.COM INTERVIEW THAT MAKES A LOT OF CONTEX GUYS TELLING ABOUT THE PAST. TO THE END I SEND FAST GREETINGS TO DRAX, IAN COOG, JAZZCAT, GEIR TJELTA, SANDER, ACIDCHILD, ARROGANCE, MASON, JAN HARRIES, LINUS, JAMMER, CONRAD, ZARDAX, MIXER, HEIN, JEFF, REYN OUWEHAND AND ALL OTHER RESPECTED ONES.
