A:Jas Brooks Player (Jason C. Brooks)
A few years ago i discovered a wonderful tune in a game named:
Space-Harrier. At that time there was however no possibility of playing
it, until I found a player in exoticripper. This player unfortunately
had some bugs.
Brooks had already made a good reputation on the C=64. In 1987 he also
started to work on Amiga. Unfortunately he only worked on it for one
year, until 1988. I have not found any tunes newer than that from Jas
Brooks.
I have found the following soundtracks.
AMIGA: C=64:
Space Harrier 05 Bismarck 01
Vixen 02 Inspector Gadget 03
? Outrun 02
Overlords Of The World 01
Pi r Squared 04
Supertrux ?? Supertrux 01
Unknown 02 .........

B: The Ultimate Soundtracker
----------------------------
One of the pioneers in the area of tracker was Karsten Obarski. In
December 1987 he made the first tracker for Amiga. This a bit "cheaply"
designed soundeditor would become the standard. In 1987 came
"THE-Ultimate Soundtracker", which was not so ultimate. This
circumstance made that in a very short time over 20 new soundtrackers
were produced, it was not until 1989/90 that Noisetracker saw the light
of the world. This time made by Mahoney & Kaktus. The disadvantages was
only that of the design and not in the way it was controlled. The first
editor for which the sounddata was called "MODULE" was Soundtracker 2.3
by UNKNOWN/DOC. It was made in 1989 shortly before RSI Megademo was
released. It was built around Noisetracker, but it had so many changes
so it was given a new name. From 1989 until 1990 all were called "Noise"
and so many modifications saw the daylight, until december 1990 when
Protracker blew out the light for Noisetracker. New design, improved
editing. Almost everything was improved. The only thing that Lars Hamre
didn't take from Noistracker was the MIDI support. Protracker was
improved by Amiga Freelancers from 1991 until 1992, until Mushroom
Studios released a better OS2 compatible version. After april 1992
nothing was changed in this version (2.3A). In 1993 a completely new
Protracker was released under the Cryptoburners label. A completely
working version of this was never released, and the early version 3.15
had as many bugs as Kickstart 1.0 from 1985. All following trackers, no
matter if they were made for Archimedes or PC, used the same principles.
Although Archimedes had 8 voices and the PC up to 64.
Who knows when another "Karsten Obarski" tool comes out.

A:Audiomonster
>>>>>><<<<<<
Audiomonster, and you don't need a PC and 32 voices, or anything like
that. All MODULES are composed with AMIGA 1000 !!!
I first discovered Audiomonster in a demo from DELIGHT. He composed the
tune "HARD FEELINGS" in January 1991 for this group, for the unique
plasmademo "OVERDOSE". The soundtrack captivates through a really unique
composition of notes and samples.
Audiomonsters real name is Raphael Gesqua, this pretty strange name to
read is french. Who wants, can look up his real address in the
soundtrack FLORENCE, and order his CD.
The first tune i have found from him is HalloManiacsofNoise 1 and 2.
They must have been created in 1990. He released the tune "70s
Reprise" In the same year, but then under the ANARCHY label. Later he
made a few productions for THE SILENTS France and DK. Two wonderful
tunes were made for Thomas Lantspurg, who also made SuperDark, for his
really unique DEMO VirtualWorld. Everything takes place in an underwater
world. For this demo Raphael made the tunes "Apocalypse" and "Hysteria".
Audiomonster confronted the Amiga Modulescene on TRSI Eastern
Conference in ARENDAL 1992 with "FLORENCE". One of his most unique
tunes.
In 1991 he also made a few soundtracks for a french softwarehouse.
But they are not so ingenious as those released "voluntarily". The game
is called FLASHBACK and was made by DELPHINE SOFTWARE.
After two years with THE SILENTS he left for MELON DEZIGN, where he
stayed until he had a "fight" with WALT in 1994. Since july 1994 he is
in COMPLEX FR.
Unfortunately I have found no new productions from him after that.
All tunes i have collected so far
---------------------------------
70's Reprise ingenious Intro Priority untraceable
Apocalypse ingenious Land Of Barbarians untraceable
Alcoholic Score Unbekannt Lover Breath untraceable
Crayon MELON DEZIGN 94 Melonmania MELON DEZIGN 92
Chaos in France untraceable Melon Glo Mania untraceable
Canal Green MELON DEZIGN 93 Nebulos crazy
Daily Pleasure strange Sonic incredible
Florence Timelessly sweet Streed Gang MELON DEZIGN 93
Hard Feelings I think its great The War THE PARTY II 92
Hello M.O.N so-so The Last Call untraceable
Hello M.O.N 2 so-so The Song Fake II France 1994
Hysteria as good as it gets Without Her untraceable
Further all soundtracks from FLASHBACK (23 tunes).
In the next issue i will present Bjorn A. Lynne.
The musiclist alone makes it to a special extra issue.
So far there are over 250 tunes made by him !!!

B: Jochen Hippel
----------------
I have already told you about him in another issue, but i have not
showed you all of his tunes, and now:
All soundtracks i have found by Jochen Hippel.
"Enchanted Land" Wonderful melodies. There exists 4 songfiles which have
subsongs.
"Amber Star" Great. There exists 19 soundfiles with one sample for
all.
"Ghost Battle" Wonderful and ingenious. Four great tracks with a few
subsongs.
"Lethal Xcess" Again wonderful melodies. Eight soundtracks.
"Ninja" Wonderful Chinese :-) Six Soundfiles.
"Prehistorical" Excellent. All with 4 voices. Six Soundfiles.
"Rings of Medusa" Great. One soundtrack.
"Rings of Medusa II" As good as the previous. The melody makes you
want to scream. Incredible.
"Leavin Teramis" Wonderfully made. There are 7 Soundfiles.
"Chambers of Shaolin" I don't know how many soundfiles that exists, but
I have 9 tunes.
"7 Gates of Jambala" Funny Soundtracks. 5 tunes.
"Warp" Three strangely made soundfiles. But a good melody
"Wings of Death" Sadly made. 11 soundfiles. every one with its own
style.
"Ghosts and Goblins" I only have the titletune. There are also ingame
soundtracks !
"Leteral" Again excellent. A few pretty rockish tunes. This
time there are 5 tunes.
"Cybernoid II" The melody is incredibly good. THE NUMBER ONE
All single soundfiles have a few subsongs, therefor I don't know the
total number of songs.
All these music titles came from the games with the same names.
I also have about 20 other tunes, which I don't know the name of !
Something more must be said about this. ALL Hippel productions have
really ingenious melodies and really thought out synthetic instruments.
I don't know anyone that can make the same kind of tunes with FOUR
voices.
