- short medicine lesson by dr Grey / Mystic Bytes
- ----------------------------------------------------------------- -- - --- ----
-
- It's really amazing how time can cure the wounds... Hey! what now? Grey
- complaining about his health? Naaah... no worries. So far I didn't manage to
- breed any ulcers anywhere ;) Saying "ulcer" I meant about one thing which
- heavily annoyed me after buying the dreamed off ST. It was nothing else than...
- YM2149 :) Arf... are ya shouting already? ;) I feel the breath of madness at my
- shoulders!
- Wait... I hear the knocking... I decide to open the door... I see angry eyes of
- Tao, DMA-SC, Mc Laser, Rhino, MSG, 505 and Luebke holding something in their
- hand... HEEEEEEEEEEEY, GUYS! PUT THIS WEAPON DOWN! PUT IT DOWN! Holy shit,
- that's a misunderstanding! Let me start the story from beginning!
-
- All sat down still directing their weapons at my head... Erm, coffee? Glass of
- wine? 'We'll drink your blood for a moment!' - someone replied... Eh, so what
- about some music? I run Popstars in the 2nd room... 'ARE YOU MAKING FOOLS OF
- US?!'
-
- Sounds of pulled triggers filled the flat... 'Tell us what you have against
- YM2149 or bark everything better!' Do you finally let me to start this story?
- 'Go on you bastard...'
-
-
- A long long time ago the smallish Grey who was at the stage of examining his
- class girlfriends by a touch "here and there", decided to focus his attention
- on computer business. Being faithful to the roots, he started to think about
- buying an ST as a follower of 8-bit Atari - already standing on the desk
- plugged to into the Russian "small but weighty as elephants' butt" TV set
- (Russian engineers rule!).
-
- ST was a natural choice, however I didn't know too much about its
- possibilities. Atari's name was enough magic for me and I believed that
- everything leaving this factory had to satisfy me. I didn't need anyone to
- force me to do it but a die-hard Speccy fan asked me to rush ahead with it
- before I changed my mind. Someday it FINALLY happend - the twice bigger STFM
- filled the rest of the desk space. I bought it from a hacker with over 700pcs
- of 3.5 disks (!). Because I didn't see too much on it, I put one of these
- disks to the STFM's 3.5 inch vagina lips. Demo starts... wot da fuck?! Is it a
- sound or farting cat in the desert? I checked the cables... All's fine, it
- wasn't a cat... STFM made a speech concerning his vocal cords... real sounds of
- wickedness. I was broken especially by the bass... pure fart'n'roll.
-
- BTW - these "sounds" were reminding me of something... hmmm... I know, I KNOW!
- Doesn't the Speccy with AY card make similar noises? Yeah... Now I know why
- this guy told me to rush ahead with buying the ST... he was FASCINATED with YA-
- AY... however I couldn't share this fascination. Showing demos or games to my
- friends I didn't pump up the volume... I wanted to avoid weird grimaces forming
- on their faces or listening to malicious comments...
-
- But someday I found some pearls which changed my mind about the STFM's vocal.
- I ran some demos with Scavenger tunes... I was fallin' in love with all of
- them! What cute melodies... YM2149, I am so SORRY for being ashamed to have
- you in the past! I was so young and so weak-minded!
-
- Since a few years I am a real enthusiast of that soundchip. And I really don't
- care if someone pokes fun at me when I am listening to some tunes pretty loud!
-
- <f1><c000> YM 2149 RuL3Z! <f0>
-
- I never would imagine I could change my mind to its current state... Treating
- something as a painful ulcer and becoming a friend of it...? Really amazing!
-
- "Ok guyz, that's the end of this story... SHOOT if You want, my last words have
- been told" - Grey
-
- "No worries Grey... we didn't have weapons loaded, our magazine rifles are
- empty..." - guests
-
- "Arf... So did I say that I lied a bit? ;)" - Grey
-
- "...and did we?" - guests
-
-
- <f1><c000> Stay in peace! YM 2149 rocks!!! <f0>
-
-
- p.s. I am listening to STEPS by Cream run on the other computer... Gosh! I love
- that chip so much! :)
