The legend returns!


(If some nitwit doesn't know, maybe I'll write a larger introduction...maybe)

Best question ever: When will you finally release Arranger Platinum?

The Legend? Where? Is there a legend among us? And I even didn't notice...

The convention here is to state your nickname in the subject... Unless you made a mistake when registering and your name is really 'Yeah'.

Oh I'm sorry Patrick...my bad! But you can call me Yeah if you want to I can live with that!

I think I'll write that longer introduction now as well, before people think I'm arrogant (which I am, but no-one has to think I am)

It was Evolution's big brother, Revolution
Your music was used in the part with the 360 degree rotating scrolltext. I've heard complaints of people getting headaches from it, I wonder if they get it from reading the scroller or from the music

if I remember correctly Patriek that was an arrangement of 2 Unlimited's Magic Friend...so I can always blame them!

Yeah!

Hehehe, indeed...
It was a fine arrangement tho, it suited the part well.

I just had to change the topic a bit

How's life Rudi?

Overall lousy and not worth it...but MY life is kinda cool

How are you today?

Hey MrRudi, how did the musical experiments with that Scandinavian vocalist turn out? I'm curious!

We didn't do that much together, she wasn't that good a singer really but she had a nice voice, so I used some spoken samples in one of my Enigma-style Gaia songs. Beside the fact that working on music together over the internet is really not working...so I guess you could say it never really became anything serious.

Too bad! She looked like erhm......a VERY interesting singer

Hello MrRudi, also back from the deep pit of consoles and pc's?

As a matter of fact i am currently working on two projects over the internet And it's working fine
First one is a summer track which a Russian Jazz-singer is working on for me second i am working with a Romanian guy to produce an ambient-style track

On a note: I did a weird Drum and Bass track which i derived from MOA's keyboard ramblings I think MOA has the track somewhere... The internet is great! Cooperate! Together we can move mountains
