COMMENT: "This was made for and released in the trackmo 'Radio Napalm' of our group 'Reflex', which has won a party, but I can't remember which. [It won the X'95 demo competition held in Utrecht, Netherlands] Quiss told me it was shown with a old SID chip 6581 and the music wasn't that what it should be supposed to, but the crowd was so impressed by the trackmo that the applause during the whole demo was even louder than the sound equipement. So the old SID wasn't that much of a problem :) It's a DMC music and I hate it for the 16 slots instrument limitation, you can hear it: the filter doesn't sweep smooth at the first part, they are like triggered in a mod file. :( Later I released this song in one of our Brainbeat music collections, but I forgot to relocate the song, so every one could load the tune directly in his DMC. The result: some very bad remixes (which uses this horrible filter off-set soundsystem). The party [the demo was released on] had a limitation in length of demos: 5 minutes. So first I composed the music as a 5 minutes track. Unfortunately Quiss (the coder of the trackmo) didn't get enough parts in time to fill up the 5 minutes complete. We first have planned to show during the whole demo a backward timer which runs from 5 min to 0 with the comment "We hate timelimits!!!". After Quiss told me the lack of a needed last part I shortened the music drastically. I have done this track on a new SID chip, KB/TOM (now farbrausch) later converted this song for the old SID chip and released a "old SID chip" version of the trackmo." (PVCF)
