@5 MINDFIELD BY MEGAWATTS
@4 by zYLAX / PTK
@1Even if the industry seems to be deserting the Amiga at the moment, the
demo-scene is still pumping the machine with everything it's got. You want
proof? Then keep reading!
Mindfield is a music disk produced by the Megawatts group. The demo comes on
three disks and consists of eight music tracks, which are as follows: Intro,
Cubic, Anestesia, NXIcio, Future Shock 2, Liverman Remix, Trip on Diz and
SlicEtasy. The tracks vary in length and the entire demo lasts for around
forty-two minutes on long play.
All the tracks are heavily influenced by Techno which is the downfall of most
music disks of this type. Techno is considered by many musicians as a degraded
form of music and so a lot of it is badly made on the Amiga. In Mindfield's
case though, the music is of a very high quality. The samples have been
digitized at a decent level and there is a real feeling that a lot of hard work
has gone into composing the music.
If you want proof of the quality of this disk, don't insult it by playing it
though your TV speaker, get your machine hooked up to a decent hi-fi system.
And, another thing. As a test we recorded the soundtrack onto a cassette and
played it to someone without telling where it was sourced from. Let's just say
they never guessed it was from a computer!

@4 Do you want to hear what a ten-year old sound chip sounds like?

@1Sidewinder, who composed the soundtrack of the Mindfield demo has created a
music CD using sound ported directly from an Amiga. Although the sound quality
has been improved with the use of a studio, it is mainly Amiga-generated music.
