ÄÄÄ ÄÄÄ Released at the Christmas-Party 1993 in Herning, DK ÄÄÄ - - - - - - - - All music is composed and arranged by: ÄÄÄ Mads Orbesen Troest ÄÄÄ All coding (What coding?) is performed by: ÄÄÄ Mads Orbesen Troest ÄÄÄ Sirius Logo created by: ÄÄÄ Morten Schnau Fog ÄÄÄ Additional graphics (WHAT graphics?) is done by: ÄÄÄ Mads Orbesen Troest ÄÄÄ Fonts - I'm afraid - are all from: ÄÄÄ Deluxe Paint 2.3 Enhanced ÄÄÄ GOLDPLAY is coded by: ÄÄÄ Sourcer / The CodeBlasters ÄÄÄ I had to patch GOLDPLAY a bit, mainly because it refuses to signal when a tune is finished. I did not want the pieces to loop, and therefore had to perform a minor "tape'n glue" operation, which - in the end - worked out just fine... I also needed the ability to fade out a MODule automaticly, when a certain point was reached, but - well - now it functions... Anyway, I'm not all that happy about GOLDPLAY, and of course every decent group should have their own play-system. In fact this should be the only release from [SCC] using that routine, because me and ReX plan to finish the MOD version of our own sound-system on The Party. And we like to think it's a BIT better than GP. But thanks to the makers of GP anyways! After all it is an acceptable play-routine released to the masses, thus helping manu new groups to start. And without GP I could not possibly have released this "symphony" at The Party. It was already some moths late. I really needed to release it... NOTICE: I just found out that GoldPlay apparently fails to initialize properly on fast machines. I don't know about 50 MHz machines, but on Frodo's I-80486 66 MHz DX/2 it is necessary to toggle the MHz to 33. I realize this is most inconvenient, but since I didn't write this play-routine there is really nothing I can do about it. Guess you'll just have to set your computer to 33 MHz, or so... ð:þ( - - - - - - - - (C)opyright 1993: Mads Orbesen Troest ("Marvin") - of - <> Artificial Arts <> - of - The "Sirius Cybernetics" Corporation - and - >> Onkel Dunkel's Disciple << - of - Oh, shut up... ð;þ) - - - - - - - - You are allowed to use any of the MODules in Non-Commercial releases, as long as you clearly state the origin of the music, aswell as my complete name and handle (Mads Orbesen Troest - alias "Marvin" of "Sirius Cybernetics" - that is)... - - - - - - - - Short Info: ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ AGONY.EXE : Standard Execution of Music Demo AGONY.EXE ? : Parameter Help & Info AGONY.EXE L : LoopMode Execution of Music Demo (Continous play and Menu skipping) AGONY.EXE 0-9 : Play a selected tune (Skipping Menu) - - - - - - - - The first time you execute the "symphony" you should chose the CONFIGURE menu-item. Then answer the questions, and a Config-File will be saved so that you won't have to configure the demo next time you execute it. The music will play continously, until the last tune has been played. When a piece is finished the next will be loaded automaticly - so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy. Or don't enjoy... Whatever. When the tunes are playing you can press ESCape at any time, to skip to the next melody. It may take a little while, because when ESCape is pressed the music starts to fade out at the same speed the music is playing. But it will - eventually - reach volume 0, and skip to the next tune... ð:þ) X, SHIFT-X, ALT-X, CTRL-X (or any combination ð;þ) may be pressed at any time to exit Agony, while executing the demo. All poetry-quotes (without music) will fade down by themself in 8 to 16 secondes (depending on the length of the text, of course), but this delay can also be skipped by pressing ESCape... If you want the music to play continously (skipping the selection-menu and restarting when the last tune has been played), you should merely add the parameter "L" (without the quotes) to the command-line: AGONY L Tunes and delays can still be skipped by pressing ESCape. If you want to play just one of the tunes, simply add the number of the tune (starting from 0) to the command-line. To play the 4th tune, for example, type: AGONY 3 Tunes and delays can still be skipped by pressing ESCape. The music is not really intended for stereo, as the tracker I used to compose it in does not support stereo. ð:þ( Therefore I fear that some voices that do not fit frightfully well together will share the same speaker in some of the tunes - if they are played in stereo, that is. This is why you can't select a SoundBlaster Pro. in the Configuration menu - but don't worry, the filter IS turned ON (I think - if my little patch work, that is) on the Pro. cards... The music-files are standard Amiga-type MODules, so they can be played in better quality by most players: VP, DMP (though DMP adds too much digital noise, in my oppinion), etc. - - - - - - - - Requirements: ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ þ AT-80286 (OR bigger ð;þ) þ Slightly below 2 MegaBytes of free HD space þ Approx. 300 Kb. of BaseMemory þ Standard VGA þ Beeper (Nooo!), Covox (Hmmm...) or a SoundBlaster / SoundBlaster Pro.

(WHAT?!) - - - - - - - - Story of this Demo: ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Oh, but I badly suspect nobody really cares to hear it... I will tell you this much: It started when there was 1« or 2 months left of my stay on "Testrup Hjskole". That was when I got to know Anne - or she got to know me, perhaps. That was when I started composing the first Agony tune: Miracle. I guess it all began one night when I was sitting alone in my room, improvising some rather depressive music using the church-organ sound on my keyboard. The lights was off (I sort of like the dark), and the only lights in the room was the LED's in the display and controls of the keyboard. Suddenly the door burst open - somebody was on the phone, and Anne was sent to fetch me. I don't know who was the more surprised... ð:þ) Then late one night after a party, which I had not (as usual) attended, I sat in the dining hall, the lights off (as usual), playing the Bsendorfer piano. Suddenly I heard some noice from the kitchen in the far end of the hall. Puzzled (and somewhat startled, I admit) I stopped playing, listening for the noise to come again. Suddenly the door opened, and it turned out Anne had been in the kitchen raiding some food together with some male guest whom I did not know. I never attended the parties, but in a way I looked forward to them anyway, since I knew Anne would appear when the party was about to end. We talked a great deal, and she said a lot of things some of which I was naive enough to believe in. Ah, I could tell you were not really interrested... And why - indeed - should you be? Well, the short and long of it is that I had several of my theories regarding people and the validity of their words confirmed... Now I can only look back, and wish that I - for one - had acted upon those theories. But people learn from their mistakes. Even if they don't want to. - - - - - - - - Artificial Arts: ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Since my group ("Sirius Cybernetics") appeared not to be too productive, I decided to make a special music-department - <A>rtificial <A>rts. I am still a full-time member of "Sirius Cybernetics", but if YOU should ever be in a desperate need of depressive Non-Techno music, I would be glad to assist you. I sure hope some of you will like my music - perhaps even vote for it. When I am composing I don't sit down with the idea of composing some music, unless I really feel I have.....well, something to say. Argh, it sounds really crappy, but it's true nevertheless. I am conviced that if I worked otherwize it would only lead to "standard-music", which I dread even more than myself. All of the pieces in Agony are composed when I suddenly found myself in DigiStudio whacking in notes and scanning through my samples. Therefore the music in Agony has taken about 4 months from the first tune was started till the last was finished. Then I lamed around for another month, listening to the tunes time and again, perhaps changing a sample, adjusting a few notes or improving some sample loop-points. So perhaps I may not be as productive as other musicians, but I don't really know since I am not acquinted with any. And I don't really care either...

(And I don't mean like Svenns Birthday) - I'm looking forward to your noter... ð:þ) Good luck with your new job! Jesper Gravgaard Jensen ("ReX" of "Sirius Cybernetics") ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Well... Perhaps some day I shall understand how quickly things can change, and when I do I might even need a few mathematical comments on the matter. ð;þ> Anyway, it's actually quite nice developing stuff together with you again - "Just like the ol'e 64 days", as one might be inclined to say. Oh, do help me - I'm getting sentimental! ð:þ) Dan Have Thomsen ("Lydian" of "Sirius Cybernetics") ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Hummmm - My oldest friend, I guess... I remember one of our first encounters in the 1st grade: I corrected your pronunciation of "LASER" (you were about to shoot me with a rather StarWars inspired Laser-Blaster), and I vaguely remember you replying by threatning to kick my butt, or some other quite horrible thing... ð;þ) Holger S. Jensen ("Hex" of "Sirius Cybernetics") ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Hey Holle! Are you aware of how long time it's been since we last met? What, 5 months or something similar?! How can so little have happened in so much time? ð;þ> Well, we shall have to do something radical about that. Oh yes, we can't have you slowly slipping away in the dark outskirts of Odense, can we? Peter Hauge ("Doom") ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ I think you are one cool graphician! Thanx for the logo you made at The Party! I hope we perhaps can arrange something about you joining our group... Mikkel Orbesen Troest (Oups - my littlebrother?!) ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Hey! I hate to admit it, but it's actually quite nice having you back from that interresting place of united hope & despair. "Testrup High" (sorry Birger), that is. Hope you've left happier than I did... Birger Larsen (Well, "just" a good and reliable frind...) ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Og Hunde Hopper Hurtigst Over Heste! Ih, de fine sm fiiiskene... Another hero just returned from a public folk-highschool, or whatever lame translation one chose to use. "Ry Hjskole", anyway. It is about time we get some serious RolePlaying started, eh? And remember: We are going to sew ourselves some spooky robes, thogh I do not yet know how such a feat could possibly be brought to a successful conclusion... ð;þ) Per Martin Halskov (Ah - another solid friend...) ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Honestly Per! What ARE you doing in Japan?! And don't give me any "Oh, but I've always been so - you know - fascinated by their whole culture. I mean - I was like, you know, captured by a larger moment and...", because I believe it. ð:þ] Morten Schnau Fog (Fellow Brother in "Onkel Dunkel's Disciple") ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Well... That appartment was too good to be true, anyway. In fact most things that appear to be "good" tend to give away their real self by becoming "too good", hastily suffixed by "to be true". I know that where you are easily accellerated I require a bit more potential energy to start rolling, but - if I may take the liberty - it appears to me that you are also very easily decellerated... But anyway - don't listen to me. I'm just a poor loser on adole. Oh, I forgot; I'm not even on adole anymore. Guess the status of Loser will have to do. ð;þ) To tell the truth, I'm rather disappointed that you have haven't replied my invitation to "Onkel Dunkel's ReUnion"... ð:~þ( Carsten Gehling (Fellow Brother in "Onkel Dunkel's Disciple") ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ I might come around and visit your _4TH_FLOOR_APPARTMENT_ (!) again, some day. But then again - I may not. Who am I - of all - to tell... Oh, anyhow - "Asperum Aestimare Fimi Aliqvid Hodie"... Or something not quite unlike that. I'm not fluent in Latin. Unfortunately. I hope we can realize the M.U.D. project we talked about...

Naaah... Remeber the masses crying "FANDO-FAF! FANDO-FAF! FANDO-FAF! (Rep. Ad. Lib.)" - Ah, those were the days, those were the days... I'll get around to mailing you those Lucas-you-know-who disques... Probably... (I wouldn't trust me!) Anyway, I hope that the SIMU-arranged ReUnion _will_ take place, and then you'll get'em there, of course. And if that screws up - you'll get'em at The Party.

You KNOW you should save your money for "ODD" ReUnions <TM>, and NOT use them on simple earthly, capitalistic items such as a guitar. Oh, and a driver's license. Nay, I must despair over you... ð;þ} Keep up the spirites, pal; Life has never been easy. Not even to those who deserve it...
