JEEZ this thing is the most QUALITY release i've ever heard (not that i'm willingly putting down EGG2 ... but this thing KICKS-ASS!!!). if people haven't heard of this music disk then here's the scoop .. it's a joint release of from iCE/Reneissance that includes music from members of Reneissance, Future Crew and KLF ... and several others that i've forgotten so i can't mention. There's like 15-20 tracks in it (didn't count cuz i was too awe struck by the music!!! :) don't ask me what ftpsite i got this from cuz i didn't ... i got it off a local bbs board and i just happened to take the chance to DL it cuz it mentioned Future Crew and KLF members (or should i say KFMF). (btw the members are Basehead and Necros ... FC's are purple motion and skaven ... but you all know that :) btw, can anyone tell me some ftpsites where i could get some personal releases from Basehead and Necros that WEREN'T released through KLF? also for FC member music and for a guy named Erik Stridell of Cascada?

The only new tracker player I want to see is something that runs over the ones out today, Inertia Player and CapaMOD are the only players on my HDD, and I use ST3.2 and FT2 for composing.

Well, as for me I was far more impressed by EGG2 as a project than epidemic, though it woulda been nice if the artist distribution in EGG was a little more even. I really like Maelcum tracks I do I do, but what about the rest of you KFMFers? > don't ask me what ftpsite i got this from cuz i didn't ... i got > it off a local bbs board and i just happened to take the chance to DL it > cuz it mentioned Future Crew and KLF members (or should i say KFMF). I was impressed by the array of artists they got, but it seems as if some put in tracks they had left over on their hard drives for a while, not at all the best I've heard from them. But then again I'm not a real fan of soft new-agish stringy things, and that's what a lot of them were. > btw, can anyone tell me some ftpsites where i could get some > personal releases from Basehead and Necros that WEREN'T released through KLF? If you read DemoNews, Necros pointed to ftp://ftp.uwp.edu/pub/msdos/demos/music/artists/necros I dunno 'bout basehead, though I 'magine he can answer for himself :) > a guy named Erik Stridell of Cascada? That'd be Zodiak. He's been around for a while. He just won the Party 94 multichannel competion.

I ripped all of them (all S3Ms, but some seem to have been MOD and converted to S3M for use in Epidemic) using PowerRipper. It's on Hornet, filename something like p-rip.zip or similar.

When I got that music-disk, I was SO TIRED that I layed in bed and didn't feel like getting up at all. Epidemic was REAL good, but I always had to get up after 15 minutes or so when the current song had looped 5 times to go on to the next one. That's one of the reasons why I ripped the songs. Now I can use DMPC and CapaMOD to play them. :) l8r -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - jester (Tobias Reckhard) jester@rbg.informatik.th-darmstadt.de FAQ maintainer for alt.binaries.sounds.mods Obtaining the FAQ: - finger jester@rbhp21.rbg.informatik.th-darmstadt.de - WWW http://grfn.org/~zaphod/absm-faq/index.html - send email to jester@rbg.informatik.th-darmstadt.de you speak to me in riddles and you speak to me in rhymes - Sarah McLachlan - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ----------------- Date: Thu, 12 Jan 95 17:17 EET From: Schitzo Subject: [KLF-TALK:685] Re: Epidemic ...

There's no special compression, they're just concatenated files, so any decent ripper should yank 'em out for you. Go to /music/programs/rippers, or somthing like that in the hornet archives and download s3mrip or powerrip or whatever and it'll pull them all out for you, nice and neat. ----------------- Date: Fri, 13 Jan 95 05:27 EET From: ST56G@Jetson.UH.EDU Subject: [KLF-TALK:688] Re: Do We Need Another Tracker ? >>> >I really think the last thing everyone needs is a new tracker.... >>> >>> Hehe, and especially not another incompatible quirky format.
