E.Trax volume 1: Once upon a vibe...

Jow everybody, welcome to the first issue of e.trax, called:
"Once upon a vibe..." So what kind of thing is thiz package!?
Well.. it's a musicdisk which we will release every month..
All musicdisks are official Blacktron Music Productions rel-
eases and they all go under the name of "E.Trax", each one has
a seperate subtitle however (in thiz case "Once upon a vibe...")

Ofcoz thiz doesn't mean that BlackTron now fully goes into
monthly musicdisks only! We will continue releasing singles,
like we did before, however instead of releasing every single
as blt-????.zip, we will now release em as (BMP)001.ZIP etc..
(For all of you who dunno yet: Blt is now BMP) The smaller
tunes etc we will combine to make the monthly musicdisk of..
So we get about 6-1o tunes per musicdisk, varying between
1½mb zipped and 3mb zipped ... Thiz will be divided into 2
(3 if it's even bigger) seperate packs, which will go under
the names (ETRX)1A.ZIP and (ETRX)1B.ZIP, etc.. jep! JUST
like thiz one! :>

At the moment we haven't got an own player yet, so actually it
is not a real music"DISK" but a normal "PACK". We are aiming
however for the thing Radical Rhythms have been doing for a
long time: an exe file containing gfx, lightbars, info and all
that other crap needed for a real musicdisk. If you (jez you!)
are a talented coder, and you wanna help a desperate musicgroup
to the top, please don't hesitate to drop a mail at our whq or
main internet address (vdbilt@dial.eunet.ch) ...

Thiz issue of e.trax was made in about 3 weeks of hard work..
We were kinda unlucky though that there was an sl1210 music
compo going on at thiz moment, which caused all bmp musicians
to have no tunes left, coz all their tunes went to that compo. :)
Therefore in THIZ pack you will only find musix of sum dewds
who didn't compete in that compo (eg. all Progressive/Acid
freaks).. Thiz means only Maverick, Knuddel and Sturm of BMP
were able to make 2 tunes each for da pack, and we got help
of a friend of BMP (Duffy Duck), who also made 1 tune for us.
That makes a total of 7 tracks, but only 4 composers...
All these 4 composers are however Progressive freaks and
therefore thiz pack is almost completely in progressive/acid
style.. Next month we hope to get support of the other bmp
members who are almost all Rave freaks :] Alltogether we
hope to get 1 tune of almost each composer per e.trax issue,
which gives lots of variety in styles.. cewl eh? :>

Now, if ya got thiz pack completely you should have the fol-
lowing tracks on yer harddisk:

filename┌composer┌songname
.(duf)stp.xm  -> Duffy Duck  -> "Strange People"
.(kn)acda.xm  -> Knuddel-> "Acid Armadillo"
.(kn)dark.xm  -> Knuddel-> "Darkside of Acid"
.(mv)mind.xm  -> Maverick-> "Liquid Mindz"
.(mv)skln.xm  -> Maverick-> "Skyline"
.(st)edrm.it  -> Sturm-> "Eternal Dreamstate"
.(st)qr#t.it  -> Sturm-> "Qr26363t"

Use CUBIC player to play all .XM songs, use IMPULSE TRACKER
for the two .IT tracks.. Don't 4get these coz they are worth
it as well! I hope that by the time you get thiz pack the
cubic player is updated and supports .IT as well, but if not,
you know what to do...
If possible, play all tracks as loud as you can on a gus or
gus max! Most of the tracks were made on thiz card, so it
should give you the maximum results...

Now sit back, relax your mind, put on sum strobe lights, pump
yer volume to da max and BOOST AWAY !! Enjoy! And be sure to
leech all following e.trax packs, containing more music of
even more composers! Cya around, mzzl and check ya later!
