- ÌÉ SORRY, MANTRONIX & TIP
- Ê------------------------------------
- ÊËBy ÈEl Loco & Nimrod of Paragon
-
- ÈThis heading was just a bait to make
- people read this, even if it's
- material concerns Mantronix and TIP.
-
- When receivingÊ Crystal Symphonies II
- Èwe were anxoius to hear what these
- two indeed talented Swedes had
- managed this time. The music disk
- was in some concerns a
- disappointment. The music started.
- Hmm... It sounded extremely...
- ordinary. Ê Skillful arranging and
- composing,È but nothing really
- original. They (MTX & TIP) stated
- that they were using earlier unheard
- methods of composing, for all we
- know that may be true. However,
- their music was not new. Everything
- sounded like one had heard several
- times before. There is nothing
- unusual about that, but while this
- music were handling the audible side
- of the production, one could read
- quiteÊ interesting scrollÈ texts below
- the menu. Words that sprang to mind
- while reading them was: Fatuity,
- overdone self-importance, bragging,
- boasting and so on. When writing
- those texts they acted like puerile
- puppies. The most important issue
- in the text was to tell the world
- thatÊ Oistein EideÈ is a shit and that
- they are, when it comes to music, to
- be looked upon as gods. We may have
- misunderstood something, but that is
- what it seemed like. Do you have a
- serious attitude problem, Mantronix
- and TIP? You denied that in one of
- the scrollers, but we think that you
- should go deeper into yourselves
- before sharing more words of wisdom
- about your psychological state with
- the rest of the scene.
-
- ÊCharts...È you two did not seem to
- like those too much when the
- Eurochart still was published.
- People voting always confounded
- taste and talent you 'said'. Well,
- now the Eurocharts are a story of
- the past and nothing will probably
- manage to gain the position the
- Eurocharts had. Your problems are
- gone, but what do you do? You want
- a similar chart started?! We have
- hard to understand what you really
- want.
-
- On the subject ofÊ plagiarizing,È you
- had used quite rough words about the
- subject (E.g. in the secret
- scroller where you wrote some nasty
- words about among other
- Nightshade/Crusaders.) We will not
- say that Phenomena are free from the
- plague yourselves. Take for example
- the graphics on CS II, they were
- very reminiscent of among other
- graphicians UNO/Scoopex' drawings.
-
- We are not after attacking Mantronix
- and TIP personally, but we think
- they should calm down a little.
- Running after everyone who says
- something they do not like, is not
- very appropriate.Ê (We are here
- referring to your crusade against
- Morten H.)È
-
- È"I'm not trying to offend MTX and
- TIP, but please: BEHAVE!"
-
- ÉEl Loco/Paragon.
-
- È"Why can you not percieve that there
- are musicians who are more talented
- than you?"
-
- ÉNimrod/Paragon.
