WITH..PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT THEY'RE T ALKING ABOUT,..WITH PEOPLE THINKING FOR US.....SINCE THE LAST ISSUE I AGAIN OBTA INED A LARGE..AMOUNT OF FEEDBACK, THE MA IN FOCUS WAS ON MY..LAST ARTICLE, WHICH COVERED HOW MUCH OUR..SCENE SYSTEM ACTUA LLY CHANGED FROM IT'S..ORIGIN TO IT'S DE STINATION ON OTHER COMPUTERS...MANY PEOP LE ACTUALLY ASKED ME WHY I WRITE..ABOUT OTHER COMPUTERS, IF THIS CHAPTER IS..CAL LED 8 BIT THOUGHTS. THE REASON IS AS..F OLLOWING. I WAS ALWAYS FASCINATED BY THE ..CHALLENGE TO EXPLORE SOMETHING NEW. A FEW..YEARS BACK I DECIDED TO QUIT THE CO MMODORE..64 AND TO GO NEW WAYS ON CONSOL E AND PC...I WAS EXPECTING TO HAVE THE S AME FEELING..LIKE I WAS USED ON C64, BUT IT WAS FOOLISH..TO HAVE SUCH THOUGHTS. I ACTUALLY UNDER-..STOOD WHAT THESE SCEN ES ARE ALL ABOUT AND..HOW MUCH THEY CORR UPTED SOMETHING WHICH HAD..IT'S ORIGIN O N THIS LOVELY BREADCASE WITH..GROUPS LIK E IKARI, TRIAD AND FAIRLIGHT!....I WANTE D TO MAKE YOU AWARE THAT ALSO IF YOU..MA Y NOT FEEL THE SAME, THERE IS CERTAINLY. .NOT MUCH FUTURE FOR THE CRACKING SCENE AS..SUCH LEFT, AS IT GOT A MONEYORIENTAT ED..BUSINESS. AND THIS WAS THE REASON F OR..WRITING THIS ARTICLE, NOTHING MORE, NOTHING..LESS.. I HOPE YOU SEE IT LIKE ME AND..THAT YOU TRY TO SUPPORT THIS LIT TLE COMP-..UTER, BEFORE SEARCHING FOR TH E CHALLENGE..ON OTHER SYSTEMS, BESIDES T HE MACHINE AS..SUCH IT ISN'T WORTH THE T IME AND EFFORT..YOU STICK INTO THE WHOLE AFFAIR. BELIEVE..ME. COMMODORE 64 STAYS WHAT IT IS .....THE BEST!....HOWEVER.. THANKS FOR YOUR REACTIONS....PLEASE KEEP ON SENDING THEM, YOU..CAN REACH ME OVER MIDFIT@MIDFIT.RUHR.DE ... ....NOW OVER TO THE TOPIC OF THIS TIME............... THE HISTORY OF THE DISK MAGS...._....AGA IN TIME FOR MIDFIT/LEGEND TO SLAP YOU..S OME RADICAL THOUGHTS BETWEEN YOUR EYES.. .THIS TIME I'LL TALK ABOUT SOMETHING WHI CH..IS SURELY THE MAIN ATTRACTION, WHENE VER..ONE GETS RELEASED. YES, I AM TALKIN G ABOUT..THOSE LITTLE DISKMAGS, WHICH TR Y TO ENLIGHTEN..US AND TO FILL OUR DAILY LIFE WITH INFORM-..ATIONS. I WANT TO RE VEAL THE HISTORY IN IT'S..NEARLY FULL DE TAIL AND HOW THE SCENE ACTUALLY..STARTED TO ATTRACT PEOPLE PRODUCING MAGAZINES.. FOR IT. ....I THINK NEARLY EVERYTHING ST ARTED, WHEN SOME..DEDICATED SCENERS REMA RKED A THICK HOLE IN THE..INFORMATION SE CTOR. PEOPLE HAD TO GET THEIR..INFORMATI ONS BY SNAIL MAIL OR BY PHONE, JUST..SLO WING DOWN THE PROCESS OF INFORMATION...T HERE WAS NO CENTRAL POINT TO GATHER..INF ORMATIONS ABOUT WHAT A CERTAIN GROUP WAS ..UP TO. AND RIGHT IN THESE DAYS, ALWAYS RE-..FERED TO AS THE GOLDEN TIME OF THE CRACKING..SCENE, REALLY EVERY DAY SOMET HING WAS HAPP-..ENING. SOME PEOPLE WERE REALLY TIRED ABOUT..GETTING INFORMED AS THE LAST PERSONS IN A..LONG CHAIN, THAT 'S WHY THEY COLLECTED NEWS..AND SPREAD T HEM IN THE SAME WAY LIKE WE..ARE NOWADAY S USED WITH ALL THESE VOTE-..SHEETS. SO THE BASIC THOUGHT OF REPORTING..ABOUT S OMETHING WAS NEAR AND LEADING TO..THE BA SIC IDEA OF A MAGAZINE.....THIS THEREBY SHOULD LEAD US TO JUST ONE..NAME, WHICH YOU MAY ALWAYS HEAR, WHEN..SPEAKING ABOU T SCENE BASED MAGAZINES...JEFF SMART - L ATER MEMBER OF TRIAD, WHO..STARTED EVERY THING WHICH IS CALLED SCENE..JOURNALISM TODAY.

ALL THESE PAPER-..MAGAZINES A LREADY GOT CONVERTED TO HTML,..SO IF YOU ARE INTERESSTED IN SEEING THEM..I FORCE YOU TO VISIT THE TRIAD OR FAIR-..LIGHT HOMEPAGE, AS IT IS JUST A MUST TO..SEE T HEM. DON'T EVER DARE TO CALL YOURSELF..E LITE, BEFORE YOU HAVEN'T SEEN AN ISSUE.. OF THIS BRILL PIECE OF WORK. HOWEVER,..T HIS CRAZY DUDE WHO ALREADY TALKED SEV-.. ERAL AMERICANOS INTO SHAME ON CONFERENCE S,..CAUSE HE WAS CAPTABLE OF SPEAKING TH E..AMERICAN ENGLISH BETTER THAN MANY OF. .TODAYS MAG EDITORS, WAS STARTING TO REP ORT..ABOUT HAPPENINGS IN THE SCENE AND W AS..HELPING TO MAKE THE INFORMATION CENT RAL...AT THIS EARLY TIME, UNLIKE TODAY, NO ONE..DID ACTUAL COMPLAIN HISSELF ABOU T THE..CONTENT OF HIS GROUP IN ILLEGAL, HE WAS..EVEN HAPPY TO BE NAMED IN THIS M AGAZINE,..CAUSE ONLY WHOSE WHO USED TO B E HOT,..MADE IT TO BE NAMED IN THIS MAG. THE..CONCEPT BEHIND ILLEGAL WAS EASY, Y OU..CAN'T COMPARE IT WITH NOWADAYS MAGS. IN..THE BEGINNING IT EVEN HAD NO CHARTS , THEY..CAME LATER AND WERE JUST A MIRRO R OF WHAT..PEOPLE WHO WERE WORTH ENOUGH TO VOTE..ACCORDING TO THEIR THOUGHT ABOU T THE..SCENE. HOWEVER READING THROUGH TH E MAG..GIVES A NICE IMPRESSION WHAT A MA G SHOULD..BE ABOUT.....INFORMATION AND E NTERTAINMENT. THIS IS..WHAT YOU RECEIVE D FROM THE PIONEER OF..THE SCENE JOURNAL ISM. JEFF SMART, ABLE..TO WRITE (..MAYB E LIKE NOBODY ELSE), WAS..GIVING YOU THE LATEST ABOUT THE HAPPEN-..INGS IN THE S CENE. REPORTS ABOUT PHREAK-..ING, ABOUT THE USA SCENE, INTERVIEWS WITH..PEOPLE LIKE P.E. WEETIBIX/SCG AND TRI DOS../IKA RI AND A CHAPTER WHICH YOU CAN EASILY..C OMPARE WITH NEWSCOPY'S WORK ON SCENE-..T OWN, THE WORLD FAMOUS SYSTEM FOUR. IF..S OMETHING CAN AMAZE ME, AND DID AMAZE THE ..PEOPLE AT THIS TIME IT WAS CERTAINLY T HIS CHAPT-..ER. HOWEVER THIS PAPERBASED MAGAZINE WAS..LEADING MANY TALENTED WRI TERS TO SIMILAR TRIES,..SUCH AS SMASHER BY GKC (GREAT KREFELD..CONNECTION, LATER WOT+ZENOBITS!) ..IGUANA BY NOSAH/DCS (W HO LATER ..FOUND THE FIRST AMIGA DISKMAG CALLED..'STOLEN DATA' BY DCS+ANARCHY) O R ..THE FAMOUS PIRATES. ALSO THESE MAGS ..DESERVE TO BE MENTIONED, BUT THEY CAME ..INTO THE SPOTLIGHT AT A TIME THE DIRE CTION OF..REPORTING WAS CHANGING. THE BO ARDS AND..THE USA ATTRACTED THE PEOPLE, LEADING ..PEOPLE TO CARE ABOUT MODEM TRA DING, ..MAKING THE SCENE EVEN FASTER..IN IT'S HAPPENINGS RESULTING IN A STORM, A ..TWISTER, OF INFORMATIONS. GROUPS DIED ..FASTER THAN LIGHT AND NEWS LANDING IN THESE..PAPER MAGS, WHICH GOT SPREAD MAIN LY IN..VENLO OR OVER THE MAIL WAY WERE A LREADY..OLD AND UNINTERESSTING WHEN GETT ING..INTO PRESS...SOME PEOPLE THINK SMAR T IDEAS, THAT'S..WHY WE ACTUALLY SAW A P D DISTRIBUTOR..CALLED DIGITAL MARKETING GOING OTHER WAYS...ALSO IF YOU DON'T MAY BELIEVE ME, IT WAS..THIS COMPANY, WHICH WAS INFLUENCED BY..THE CRACKING GROUP R ADWAR (A PART OF THE..LIGHT CIRCLE, JUST LIKE THE FAMOUS RED..SECTOR), WHO RELEA SED ONE OF THE FIRST..DISKMAGS. THE NEW ERA OF INFORMATION WAS..BORN, IT WAS TH E RADWAR MEETING V1.0..WHICH SHOULD BE W RITTEN DOWN INTO THE..ANNUALS AS THE DAY THE JOURNALISTIC..ASPECT OF THE SCENE C HANGED DRAMATICALLY...THE DIGITAL NEWS B Y DIGITAL MARKETING OF..RADWAR WAS RELEA SED AT THIS MEETING,..COVERING SOME HAPP ENINGS IN THE SCENE...HOWEVER THIS MAG W AS MORE ORIENTATED ON..INFORMING ABOUT T HE LEGAL PART OF THE..COMMODORE 64 AND T HEREFORE LOST A LOT OF..ATTENTION, ALSO DUE TO THE FACT IT WAS..IN GERMAN BUT HO WEVER IT WAS ONE OF THE..FIRST DISK MAGS . MAYBE ALSO THE FIRST..DISK MAG, NOBOD Y CAN SAY THAT FOR SURE!..OF CAUSE THE B EST IDEA BEHIND THE CONCEPT..OF A DISK B ASED MAGAZINE WAS THAT IT WAS..EASY TO B E SPREAD AND DIDN'T COSTED ANY-..THING A T ALL, EXCEPT FOR THE BLANK DISK.....SEV ERAL MONTHS LATER THERE WAS A LEGAL..CRE W WITH OFFSPRINGS IN GENESIS PROJECT..CA LLED AMOK ADAPTING THIS CONCEPT AND..REL EASING A FIRST ISSUE, WHICH WAS MAINLY.. DONE FOR FUN AND WASN'T MEANT AS A REGUL AR..PRODUCTION, OF THEIR SOON TO BECOME WORLD..FAMOUS SEX'N'CRIME ONLY COVERING THE..HAPPENINGS IN THE WORLDWIDE CRACKER SCENE.....THEY GOT SO MUCH CONSENT ON T HIS VERY..FIRST ISSUE, MORE LOOKING LIKE A NOTER,..THEN LIKE A DISKMAG, THAT THE Y ACTUALLY..DECIDED TO RELEASE A SECOND ISSUE AND A..THIRD ONE ALREADY COMING UP WITH CHARTS,..WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN VOT ED FOR. AND THIS..WAS THE START OF PEOPL E COMPLAINING. THE..EDITOR OF THIS MAGAZ INE IS KNOWN TO US,..HE MADE HISTORY WIT H RELEASING THIS MAG..ON A REGULAR BASE AND HE PRETTY MUCH FORMED..WHAT WE UNDER STAND UNDER AN DISKMAG...HOWEVER THIS DU DE WAS OMG/AMOK, FORMERLY..KNOWN AS THE NAUSEATING TIMELORD (TNT),..LATER ALSO K NOWN AS ANTICHRIST /GENESIS...AS FAST AS THIS MAG WAS BORN, AS FAST THE..IDEA OF OTHERS TO GET COMPETIONERS TO ..SEX'N'C RIME WAS STANDING FOR. YOU SHOULD..KNOW THAT THE LEADING MAG CALLED ILLEGAL..WAS N'T RELEASED ON A REGULAR BASE ANY..LONG ER, DUE TO JEFF SMART GETTING BUSTED..AN D LOOSING INTEREST IN THE SCENE. CAUSE.. OF THE EASY SPREADWAY SEX'N'CRIME WAS..A LREADY REGARDED AS THE #1 MAG IN THE..SC ENE. HOWEVER THE PIONEER COMPETIONERS..T O WHAT WE KNEW AS SEX'N'CRIME, OFTEN..RE FERED TO AS SEX'N'SLIME JUST FOR THE..RE CORDS, WERE MAGS LIKE MAGIC NEWS BY..CRY PT+X-RATED WHICH WAS LATER TAKEN OVER..B Y SPITFIRE/ACTION WHO MADE SCENEPRESS..O UT OF IT AND SOME TIME LATER THE FAMOUS. .MAMBA BY CRAZY, LATER ENIGMA! AND OF..C OURSE A MAGAZINE RELEASED BY ALPHA..FLIG HT AND SODOM CALLED RELAX, WHICH..I DON' T NEED TO INTRODUCE HERE. TALKING..ABOUT RELAX AND ITS BEGINNING I STILL..REMEMB ER ME MEETING TOM/SODOM (ONE OF..THE REL AX EDITORS!) IN THE MORNING HOURS..WHILE DRIVING TO SCHOOL AND SEEING HIM..WEARI NG A RELAX MAG SHIRT, THIS PICTURE..IS S OMETHING I ALWAYS WILL REMEMBER AND..WHI CH YOU CAN'T DISPROVE IT'S SOME KIND..OF FUNNY.....THE FIRST THICK CONFLICT WAS ALREADY..LAYING IN THE AIR AND MORE AND MORE PEOPLE..COMPLAINED THAT THE CHARTS ACTUALLY GOT..CHEATED, CAUSE OF SEX'N'CR IME TAKING VOTES..VIA PHONE. THIS WAS S OMEKIND OF SOLVED,..ALTHROUGH THIS SUBJE CT NEVER CAME TO A..REST, THROUGH THE IN VENTION OF THE VOTE-..SHEETS. NEARLY AL L MAGS WERE TARGET BY..SUCH ACCUSATIONS, BUT NOBODY ACTUALLY..COULD 100% PROVE I T TO SOMEBODY. HOWEVER..THIS WAS A TIME OF CONFUSION, NEW MAGS..GOT FOUND AND B URRIED AND WE EVEN SAW..THE APPEARANCE O F A MAG CALLED ACTION..NEWS, WHICH I NAM E HERE CAUSE IT WAS..SOMEKIND OF RIDICUL OUS. IT WAS REPORTING..ABOUT THE SCENE AND WAS IN GERMAN AND..THIS ON 2 DISKSID ES. THE LATER KNOWN..DISK MAG CREATOR B Y DIGITAL MARKETING WAS..ADAPTED FROM TH EIR OUTFIT. THE ONLY..REMARKABLE THING ON IT ... BUT WE WERE..ALSO ABLE TO SEE SOME VERY INTERESSTING..MEDIA, LIKE FOR EXAMPLE CORRUPTION AND..REMARK OR ENDEMI C. MEANWHILE THE PIONEER..CALLED SEX'N'C RIME WAS BURRIED AND OMG..LEAVING THE PU BLIC ATTENTION CONCERNING..MEDIA FOR A S HORT WHILE TO WORK AS..ANTICHRIST FOR CO RRUPTION. A SHORT WHILE..AFTERWARDS, THE EDITORS OF CORRUPTION..LEFT GENESIS AND THE MAG I AM WRITING FOR..WAS BORN... T HE PROPAGANDA! WHILE WE..WERE ALSO ABLE TO FOLLOW THE RELEASE OF THE..FIRST EDIT IONS OF ONE OF THE ALL TIME..STARS IN SC ENE JOURNALISM. THE SHOCK BY..CENSOR DES IGN, GOING A SOMEKIND OF NEW..TRADITION, WHICH IS QUITE COMMON NOWA-..DAYS TO IN VOLVE AS MANY DIFFERENT GOOD..PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE INTO THE CREATION OF..THE MAGAZ INE AND THEREFORE GET THE MAG..OBJECTIVE AND INTERESSTING TO READ...SHOCK WAS SU CCEEDING IN THIS, BEING THE..REASON FOR THIS MAG STILL REIGNING THE..CHARTS LONG TIME AFTER IT WAS GONE ALREADY.....SHOC K WAS OF A SPECIAL IMPORTANCE FOR THE..S CENE, DUE TO THE MATTER OF FACT IT WAS.. OFFERING A SPECIAL KIND OF CHARTS CON-.. CERNING THE FIRST RELEASES, THE PART..MA KING THE CRACKING SCENE IMPORTANT...THE CHALLENGE TO BE FASTER & BETTER THAN..TH E OTHERS. WHILE OTHER MAGS JUST LISTED. .A SHORT LIST WITH THEIR IMPRESSION ON W HO..GOT THE WARE FIRST, SHOCK WAS FORMIN G THE..POINT SYSTEM, BASING ON THOUGHTS BY..SKATER/CENSOR, WESTBAM/LEGEND ..AND SEVERAL OTHERS. THIS SYSTEM LATER GOT..A DAPTED AND IS THE BASIC THOUGHT FOR THE. .PSYCHOBILLY RELEASE CHARTS.....THIS WAS MAKING THE SCENE A BIT MORE..DANGEROUS AGAIN, AS THERE WAS A CLEAR..BATTLE FOR THE WAREZ, WHICH GOT SUPP-..ORTED THROUG H THIS, WHICH SHOULD SHOW..US HOW MUCH I MPORTANCE A MAG REALLY HAS...IT CAN LEAD AND SUPPORT THE SCENE INTO..A CERTAIN D IRECTION. THEREFORE A MAG-..AZINE ALSO HAS A TASK, TO INFORM AND TO..BE OBJECTI VE, THIS OFTEN IS FORGOTTEN..IN NOWADAYS SCENE, AS IT IS MOST OFTEN..THE CASE TH AT SOME USE THEIR MAGAZINE TO..PUT OTHER S DOWN. IT'S JUST A FACT YOU..HAVE TO LI VE WITH, AS THIS IS ALSO THE..CASE IN RE AL LIFE. EVERY MAGAZINE GOT..PEOPLE BEHI ND IT WHO HAVE AN OPINION AND..YOU WILL NEVER SUCCEED IN LEAVING THIS..OPINION O UT. SOMEHOW IT IS BEST LIKE THAT,..SOMEH OW NOT... WHO KNOWS, WHAT COUNTS IF..YOU GET ENTERTAINED IN THIS SCENE AND..INFO RMED ABOUT THE PROJECT OF OTHERS...TO KN OW WHO'S HOT AND WHO'S NOT. AND TO..SEE THE STYLES OF ALL MAG EDITORS, THEY..MAK E THOSE MAGS INTERESSTING TO READ...WHAT WOULD BE PROPAGANDA WITHOUT..SCENETOWN, SCENE+ WITHOUT DUKE'S..PERSONAL SATRICA CHAPTER, RELAX WITHOUT ....R'S KIND OF REPORTING. ALL THESE PEOPLE ..HAVE A OW N STYLE AND THEY ARE INDEED ..GOOD AT WH AT THEY'RE DOING. HOW DID THE ..DISK MA GS HAVE CHANGED? WELL THEY ..CHANGED AS MUCH AS THE C64 SCENE. ..FIRST OF ALL, I T IS QUITE COMMON TO RELEASE ..A MAGAZIN E EVERY SECOND MONTH, NOT ..BEING THE WO RST CHOICE, CAUSE THE EDITORS..ACTUALLY GOT MORE TIME TO WORK ON THEIR..ARTICLES AND ON THE NEWS AND IT IS ..COMMON TO H AVE FIRST RELEASE CHARTS...HOW MUCH SENS E IT DOES HAVE OR NOT,..JUST STANDS TO D ISCUSSION. WE ARE BY FAR..NOT AGREEING WITH ALL OF THE SOCALLED RULES..OF THESE POINTSYSTEMS AND SOMETIMES THEY..ARE RE ALLY ANNOYING, BUT THERE IS A NEED..FOR THESE RULES. HOWEVER THIS ISN'T THE..DEB ATE HERE, I COULDN'T THINK ABOUT A MAG.. LIKE PROPAGANDA, RELAX OR SCENE+..RELEAS ED WITHOUT CHARTS ANYWAY.....WHAT I PERS ONALLY MISS IS SOMEKIND OF..INNOVATION, SOMETHING NEW STUNNING..YOU WHEN LOADING UP THE LATEST ISSUE OF..YOUR FAVOURITE MAG, BUT I THINK WHAT I..REALLY MISS IS SOMEBODY OF THE JEFF SMART..TYPE OF DUDE . MAINLY CAUSE WITH HIS..SPECIAL KIND O F REPORTING THIS WHOLE..THING BEGAN. JUS T CLICK WITH YOUR BROWSER..AND CHECK THE SE OLD ILLEGAL ISSUES AND..SEE IT FOR YO URSELF. JEFF, IF YOU ARE..READING THIS FOR SOME STUPID REASON,..MUCH HAPPENED S INCE YOU PRINTED OUT THE..FIRST ISSUE OF YOUR BRILL PAPER MAGAZINE..WHICH WAS HO STED BY SEVERAL FAMOUS GROUPS..OVER THE YEARS, COULD YOU HAVE IMAGINED..THAT IT FINALLY LED TO A MULTIFILED DISK..BASED MAGAZINE BEING SPREAD REALLY..EVERYWHERE ? WOULD YOU HAVE THOUGHT OF..TALENTED PE OPLE LIKE ANTICHRIST, SKATER,..NEWSCOPY, ..R, DUKE ETC. WRITING AND..LEAVING A P ROFILE ON SOMETHING YOU'VE..STARTED WITH YOUR OLD EPSON PRINTER?..WOULD YOU HAVE DREAMT ABOUT THE MATTER..OF FACT, THAT THE ENTIRE SCENE GOT A..INFORMATION NETW ORK, WORKING 100% FASTER..THAN LIKE IT W AS USED AROUND IN YOUR DAYS,..WHEN PEOPL E WERE HAPPY TO GET AN ILLEGAL..ON THE V ENLO MEETING INTO THEIR HANDS, WITH..YOU R KIND OF HUMOUR WRITING A FAST AUTO-..G RAPH ON IT? I THINK YOU WILL AGREE TO.. ME WHEN I SAY THAT THE MAGS PRETTY MUCH. .CHANGED THE WAY THE SCENE WAS WORKING,. .THAT IT WAS LEADING TO AN WORLD FULL OF ..INFORMATION ABOUT ALL THE COLORFUL AND ..NOT SO COLORFUL PEOPLE USING TO SHARE THEIR..TIME WITH THE C64. INFACT IF ALL THESE..INFORMATIONS AND ALL THESE HAPPE NINGS WON'T..BE, HOW MUCH EXCITING THIS HOBBY WOULD ACT-..UALLY BE LIKE?.. JEFF, I SEE YOU SITTING..IN YOUR ROOM, WORKIN G ON THE FINAL COMM-..ENTS IN ILLEGAL, J UST TWO DAYS BEFORE..VENLO. YOUR EPSON I S PRINTING THE LAST..PAGES INCLUDING SYS TEM 4, YOU ARE SITTING..THERE IN MY IMAG INATION FOR ALL THOSE WHO..PRODUCED A MA G FROM IGUANA OVER..SMASHER TO PIRATES, SEX'N'CRIME, ..MAGIC NEWS UNTIL THIS LAT EST ISSUE OF..PROPAGANDA.......REGARDS,. ...MIDFIT/LEGEND..PROPAGANDA MAGAZINE... ............................
