³¼THE GROUP OF THE¼³

³¼ISSUE¼³

¹
Yet  a  new  column is born here in Top
Secret.   This  time  we present to you
'the  group  of the issue'.  Each issue
we  will select the group that we think
have done best, in the time between two
releases  of  Top Secret.  We will tell
you  why  we have decided the group and
we  will  talk  to the group in hope of
getting some useful facts.
The group of this issue is Kefrens.  As
you  probably all know, won Kefrens the
demo-competition   at   the   Gathering
Party,  with  their two-disks trackdemo
called  'Desert  Dream'.   Not only was
that very impressing, but also the fact
that     Kefrens     has     won    the
demo-competitions  everytime  they have
competed  with a trackdemo is extremely
impressing.    We   have   talked  with
Kefrens to hear about the organization,
the future, Melon Dezign and so on.

²We  on  Top Secret have decided to make
you group of the issue, because you won
the  demo-competition  at the Gathering
Party.   Do  you  think you deserved to
win   there  ?¹   

NO.   Ofcourse  not.   Pornos  competed
with  the best production !!!  We think
it  is  a miracle that we won with such
cool competitors as The Pornos.

²Could  you  tell  the readers something
about  the  organizing, rules, members,
etc in Kefrens ?¹

Organizing  ?  Rules ?  Nasty words !!!
We have really no organizer in Kefrens,
and we don't have any particular rules.
Why  should  we  ??   If anyone want to
join,  we  all  discuss  whether or not
they can join.  In a group with members
in  only  one country, you really don't
need   any  organizer.   We  just  make
something  whenever  we feel like.  The
only  rule  we  got  is to keep Kefrens
100% danish !  Members ?  At the moment
we  are 12 more or less active members.
Age  from  17 to 26 (I think).  A short
list  ?  R.W.O, Laxity, S.L.L, Mellica,
Razmo,  Blizzart,  Zeus, Dice, Vention,
Airwalk, Maestro and Hawkeye.

²Everytime  you  have  competed  with  a
trackdemo,    you    have    won    the
competition.   Why ?  Just pure luck or
what ?¹

Well,  I  think  it  is a mixture.  The
first   trackmo   was  Guardian  Dragon
released  at the Lowlife/Light & Static
Bytes.  The other things released there
were  really  only  bigger intros so...
The  next  one  released  was  Guardian
Dragon 2 on the Samsoe/Hurricane-party.
Some  other  nice  things were released
there  too,  like  'In  the Kitchen' by
Anarchy - S.O.S by Melon etc.  We guess
that, it was the best so...  The latest
is Desert Dream.  People expected a LOT
this  time.   Spaceballs released their
nice!   precalculation  called 'Mobile'
and   Sim   Prods.    released   a  big
animation called 'Speed'.  And they are
both  ok, but it is impossible to win a
demo-competion  with  only one routine,
and   that  is  probably  why  we  won.
Finally,  it  has  to  be said that all
main-coding  on  the  winning demos has
been done by Laxity...

²I  have  been told that on The Party'92
you  made  an  agreement  with Seen/M.D
about stopping the minor 'war' that was
going on.  Is that true ?  And if it is
true,    why    did    you   make   the
Melon-sequence  in the demo ?¹  

Well,  it is true that we have had some
misunderstandings  with  Melon  Design.
But  we think that it was blown way out
of proportions by the scene.  We talked
to Melon at the party and they asked if
we   should   stop   this  'war'.   The
introduction  in  Desert Dream is meant
as  a  joke on this little 'war-thing'.
Seen  also  said  that  if we wanted to
make  an  anti-demo  against  Melon, it
should  be  a  funny  one, like the one
they released on Samsoe.

²Could  you  tell a little bit about the
groups future plans ?¹

Well, the next production will probably
be  a  trackmo  from Vention, hopefully
released   at   TCC   '93   in  Sweden.
Graphics  will  be  done  by  R.W.O and
music   by   either  Maestro  or  Dice.
Furthermore   Vention   will   code   a
music-selector  with fab music by Dice.
Hardware Heaven should also be finished
within  the  next  month  or so even if
Blizzart  tries  to  delay it even more
than  he  already has.  Zeus scared the
shit out of all of us by saying that he
will  start coding something !!!  Maybe
a  smaller  trackmo  ??  Only time will
tell.   We could have mentioned smaller
things   like  a  little  Aga-intro  by
Laxity  and  Vention but why should we.
Everyone   in  Kefrens  will  within  a
matter   of   month   all  have  bought
Aga-based  machines and D.A.N.E will be
the last bigger project from Kefrens on
500/2000.

²Anything to add ?¹

Nah...  These questions was answered by
Dice and Hawkeye, hope we made sense..
