Why did you stop demoscene? And don't you want to come back for some beers on Evoke or Revision?
I think Daniel Wressle aka Brandon Walsh is doing stuff for digisonix now, he's doing pretty good in compo's.
Im not sure exactly why I stoped but I think most of my scenefriends did the same thing at about the same time. We were all about the same age and I guess there was some sort of generation change happening. I seem to remember feeling like I wasn't enjoying it as much any more, thinking that I've had my run at the scene and that it simply was time to move on. Studies, work, relationships, new hobbies and the rest of life in general took over.
I joined Loonie at some small local c64-gathering a while back. Can't remember the name. I might do that again if the opportunity presents it self , but I cant see my self traveling outside Stockholm for a demoparty any time soon. I don't have the time.
I don't think I know of Daniel Wressle but I'll google him!
Can you point out other recent chip-trackermusicians that do melodic tunes like Radix and Loonie used to do them? I know about Malmen but I'm sure there are loads of others I have missed!
Where do people release their stuff these days?
I guess we (cerror and I) make what you like. You can find stuff on our soundcloud (which I've commented with on your tracks) or http://xyce.bandcamp.com. Malmen, Radix and Loonie are pretty much our biggest inspiration so I guess we sound a like.
Daniel Wressle / Brandon Walsh is doing the same really. So you should really find him. I think he has a couple of rendered songs on Youtube. Or you should check out scene.org, he did some releases in the tracked music compo on Evoke and a release in oldschool executable on Revision.
Too bad you retired the demoscene but I can comprehend. I've actually been talking a lot to Radix lately and he seems to be picking up some chiptunes lately. Still too busy with his child and other life stuff to join on regular partying but he's been to some Swedish parties last year I think.
I'm one of the younger concerning generation, and seeing a lot of younger people on parties as well, although it's still overrun by the oldtimers.
