Blah, dig dis: Who Cares?]------------------------------------------[Psibelius]- ah' dink I'm pretty safe t'assume dat some large numba' of ya' are pissed at Popco'n and TraxWeekly's state uh affairs fo' last mond. Let me assho' nuff ya' dat ah' wuz indeed pissed as all heck as sheeit, cuz' I wuz seein' some solid publicashun wid about 50 uh de content mine go waaay down- hill...sheeit, guess whut? Popco'n's back t'runnin' TraxWeekly, but befo'e ya' go screamin' in anguish, give me some few minutes. So Popco'n's slacked off quite some bit...coincidentally he manages to git into some medical turnova' right at da damn puh'fect instance. What it is, Mama! Do we care? Is it really dat significant? De wo'ld be not goin' t'end if TraxWeekly duzn't mosey on down out on time. What it is, Mama!..but it duzn't make anyone happy if it NEVER comes out on time. What it is, Mama! De result uh TraxWeekly #25 be quite apparent...a few uh us, tired uh bein' dependent and unable t'get some progress, took it into our own hands t'get TraxWeekly out and back on schedule. What it is, Mama! Obviously, it's effected some serious repuh'cussions. Fo'give and fo'get. Popco'n is capable uh doin' his job. Sheeeiit. ah' am here t'tell all uh ya' dat TraxWeekly gots'ta stay consistent. Startin' right now, ya' gots'ta see copies uh TraxWeekly mosey on down out every Dursday, widout delays o' 'suses. I'm pretty sick uh dealin' wid 'suses every damn week, and I'm sho' nuff most uh ya' are too. De bottom line is, dig dis: TraxWeekly comes out, no matta' whut happens. ah' assho' nuff uh dat. Anyways, I'll be back t'a no'mal writin' schedule next week, wid beat reviews, an interview (wow, about time. Right On! ), and few mo'e delicious tidbits I've been scrapin' off uh IRC #trax as uh late. What it is, Mama! =) Psibelius [TraxWeekly] gwie@owl.csusm. 'S coo', bro.edu -[2. Why are we here?]------------------------------------------[Mho'am]- ah' wants'ed t'scribble an article on Windows 95 dis week, but I've been too busy t'get it done. What it is, Mama! Specifically, I'm plannin' on writin' an article about compatibility between Windows 95 and da damn various trackers, samplers, and players on de scene. What it is, Mama! I'd appreciate any comments o' bugs dat ya' may gots' - mail dem t'niespodj@neonramp.com. 'S coo', bro. Once ah' get enough time to do some do'ough testin' I'll git de article out. Dis week, ah' would likes t'respond t'some comments by Psibelius in last week's issue. What it is, Mama! My disclaima' down front - dis be NOT intended t'start any type uh flame war. Ah be baaad... Psibelius made some 'sellent points dat ah' would likes t'build downon and I'd also likes t'clarify some remarks dat he made in reference t'some uh my past articles. First, ah' couldn't agree mo'e - dere needs t'be some lot less criticism and some lot mo'e coopuh'shun on de scene. What it is, Mama! But most impo'tantly, it be vital to sepuh'te criticism fum opinion. 'S coo', bro. Makin' some statement such as "dere needs t'be mo'e diversity on de scene" o' "rippin' samples be bad-ass" be givin' an opinion, not criticism. 'S coo', bro. ah' strongly recon' dat everyone be entitled t'deir opinion, and wheda' o' not we agree wid it we should respect it. De purpose uh TraxWeekly be to 'shange ideas and opinions wid oders in dis wonderful wo'ld uh beat. We kin't be afraid t'share our opinions, even if many gots'ta disagree. What it is, Mama! Oderwise, why boda' writin' anydin' at all? Criticism be a whole different issue. What it is, Mama! Slammin' someone on some sucka'al level should not be tolerated in some publicashun o' some public fo'um. 'S coo', bro. Personal disagreements should be settled privately. Slap mah fro! ah' really duzn't care t'see wahtahmelluns such as "his beat sucks" o' "his moda' is some "; I've gots betta' din's t'do wid mah' time. What it is, Mama! Fo'tunately, real little if any uh dis kind'a bashin' snatch'd place publicly. Slap mah fro! And dat's de way it should be. What it is, Mama!.. but dat's plum my opinion . Of course, not all criticism be bad-ass. Constructive criticism should always be welcome. What it is, Mama! Music and demo reviews gots'ta always be subjective in nature, and we should respect da damn opinions and doughts uh dose dedicated and brave enough t'publish deir reviews. Comments such as "de song wuz really baaaad, but da damn strin's wuz an octave too high" o' "de change at pattern 10 wuz some little abrdownt, but clever" help us all improve and grow in our beatal career. Ah be baaad... Constructive criticism be always baaaad, provided it be honest, insightful, and not malicious. Hopefully dis be makin' some kind'a sense. What it is, Mama! It's late, I'm tired, and I gots' an edito' pushin' some wastedline . Not t'menshun de fact dat I'd rada' gots' mah' fin'ers on mah' mama instead uh dis keybo'd... ah, de sacrifices one makes. Right On! ah' would likes t'sucka'ally dank Psibelius fo' brin'in' de whole criticism issue t'de fo'efront; it's sump'n we all deal wid as beatians. I'd also love t'commend him on his sdownerb use of irony - he 'espressed his strong feelin's against criticism by. Slap mah fro!.. sheeit... criticizin' ;-). Give him two points fo' cleverness. Right On! Dere be one last wahtahmellun I'd likes t'clarify befo'e ah' sign off. What it is, Mama! In a previous article ah' made da damn followin' statement, dig dis: "It seems dat everyone be tryin' t'become Skaven and scribble deir own spin on Second Reality. Slap mah fro!" It seems ah' wuz snatchn way out uh context; ah' dun didn't mean fo' dat t'be snatchn literally. Slap mah fro! It wuz plum a simile; some figure uh speech (my English professo' would be proud). ah' could gots' plum as easily used Beedoven o' Mozart as an 'esample, but ah' used Skaven since he's probably mo'e popular . ah' do not recon' dat Skaven gots'ta some intellectual propuh'ty rights t'any tune dat be written dat sounds remotely classical; ah' plum used his Second Reality as mah' 'esample since mos' everyone and deir pet dog gots'ta heard it. I'll be mo'e careful in de future. What it is, Mama!.. I'm bein' watched out dere. Right On! Dat's enough babble fo' one week. My apologies fo' goin' slightly off topic, but wahtahmelluns gots' been hectic and ah' aint had da damn chance t'scribble de articles dat ah' really wants'. Next week I'll do mah' best t'put sump'n togeda' of mo'e interest. Until den, let's all hope dat Popco'n gits betta' and da damn honky chicks git wetter. Right On! Mho'am -[3. De Art uh a Fool and Oda' Misadventures in Tune City]-----[Swill]- So de end be sweet. Youse sighin' wid de relief at da damn end uh de Long Slog,in yo' seat, down as high as ya' kin wid puh'haps some bea' in yo' hand o' puh'haps sump'n less fillin' but plum as satisyin'. Youse lookin' at de monito' and dere's dis feelin' uh powa' inside yo' chest, crawlin' down yo' droat and drough de eardrums. As deaf as dead. Yo' dink, dig dis: What gots' ah' done? Is dis me? Oh mah' god, I'm standin' wid de Gods, and ah' can feel deir warm hands pattin' me across de back, some little too hard yes, but do ah' feel great. Right On! De monito' be hummin', de hard roll be waitin' fo' its next funcshun, and youse sittin' back relaxed starin' so's deep into de screen it begins t'hurt yo' eyes. And fo' de next hour youse still in dat posture, yo' ear drums are hurtin' now and while youse sittin' back, listenin' t'Dis Great Song, sump'n happens. Like a creepin' dead, ya' kin feel it slida' across yo' body. Slap mah fro! As youse listenin' de song begins t'change. What it is, Mama! Subtle changes at fust. Would not gots' been noticeable had ya' listened t'de song some few times. But ya' kin hear it. De melody be all wrong. It's alienated fum de whole piece; mos' likes some separate entity it jumps out at ya' until dat's all ya' hear. Ah be baaad... Some uh de pulses are vibrated and it sounds drunken. 'S coo', bro. At once ya' stop de song, hang yo' 'haid low, and afta' a while go back t'de edit screen. 'S coo', bro. You's dink t'yo'self, dig dis: I'm betta' off widout a melody. Slap mah fro! Who needs one anyway? Wasn't dere beat out dere dat only used puh'cussion? and some little bass line? Fo'get da damn bass line and just gots' de dumpin' whup'. You's could call yo' beat puh'cussion techno, and hail in some new style uh boogy beat. So ya' delete da damn melody and de bass, whack dem out uh de sample directo'y. Slap mah fro! Den ya' save da damn song. Dere's dis sour taste in yo' moud now. Yo' 'haid hurts and ya' drink some mo'e. What it is, Mama! Afta' listenin' t'de song anoda' dozen times ya' decide a change be at hand; some title change. What it is, Mama! You's call de song SHIT96.MOD and save it t'disk. Fuck it. Perhaps, ya' dink, ya''ll brin' it out uh de trunk and rewo'k it one day. Slap mah fro! Youse still day dreamin' at da damn clunker hours later; ya''ve fo'gotsten de mod and are now dinkin' uh startin' anoda' song. Befo'e ya' even enta' de edit menu and way befo'e ya''ve even found some supa' fine samples ya' kin hear de applause inside yo' 'haid and da damn fan mail hittin' yo' hard roll, and havin' snatchn out fust place in some half respectable comp. Kosmic be afta' ya' t'join deir ranks wid de offa' of bre'd and youse gots half some dozen requests already t'scribble songs fo' games. Oh de triumph. Right On! De glo'y. Right On! Bein' on top uh all dose strugglin' trackers out deir and standin' along side yo' new peers. Neva' once, while youse composin', do ya' dink dat later, not dat much later, youse goin' t'be disappointed and drunk wid de dought of suicide, and redojiggerd da damn song, dig dis: SHIT97.MOD. Why would ya'? Sho' nuffly Bo'is Blank wrote bad-ass songs, and Harlan Ellison bad-ass sto'ies dey hid away; de only sucka' in de wo'ld knowin' uh deir 'esistence da damn composa' him o' herself.

Faces in de Crowd]------------------------------------[Kal Zakad]- Hello, and welcome t'a new weekly feature uh TraxWeekly. Right On! Dis column gots'ta be dedicated t'helpin' all aspirin' demoscene beatians out dere in deir quest t'make some dojigger fo' demselves in de rapidly growin' beat scene. What it is, Mama! A'cuz uh de shea' volume uh beat bein' released dese days, it grows harda' and harda' to keep down wid all de new producshuns, and all de new composers. Unfo'tunately, cuz' of dis, many sucka's reso't to plum FTPin' de beat uh de "big-ass dojigger" beatians. Dere be nodin' inherently wrong wid dis, uh course, but many uh de unknodes are just left in de dust. HORNET Demonews might review de songs, howeva' dat duz little t'help de no-dojigger composer. Ah be baaad... Deir song might be given some *** o' some ***+, yet dat hardly guarantees dat sucka's gots'ta give it some listen. 'S coo', bro. Dat's why de concept fo' dis column came about. ah' figured dat wid a little bit uh press in some respected beat scene newsletter, some beatian could go some long way towards improvin' deir reputashun. Anyhow, here be whut we gots'ta include each week, dig dis: 1) some little-ass info article about some little-knode composer 2) some sho't interview wid de sucka' about his trackin' style, influence, etc. 3) de composer's release listin', so's sucka's kin check out his tunes 4) de composer's e-mail address, so's listeners kin t'row comments and criticism If ya' are an unknode beatian and would likes t'be featured in Trax Weekly, here's how ya' do it, dig dis: Send an e-mail message t'me (Kal Zakad) at jtownsen@sescva.

'S coo', bro. Don't wo'ry dat yo' beat be not baaaad enough t'get ya' featured here. What it is, Mama! De idea be to benefit da damn aspirin' beatian. 'S coo', bro. If yo' beat shows some reasonable potential, i'll be mo'e dan happy t'help t'spread da damn wo'd about yo' wo'k. :> Dis be jimmey to anyone who recon's dat mo'e sucka's in de scene should know about deir composishuns.
