TITLE:NEWS FROM FUTURE AND PAST - TIME TRAVEL WITH SCENARIUM! PALETTE:0223 088a 08a9 0bb9 3 FUTURE NEWS 2By Macno They have imitated our Alternative News, we have imitated their whole mags, 2 they will publish our Future News. Scenarium has bought a costly crystal ball from Merlyn of The Magic Guild and has started to explore the future of the scene. What will happen the next years? Who cares anyway? Nevertheless we know it even before R.A.W., Upstream and Propaganda start to quarrel upon who got the exclusive first and ROM tells us what's the opinion of sceners. 3Zine1 is back! After various years of silence, Zine comes back with a new issue. 3Orlando 1 and 3Chester1, finally free from duties in3 Zinkfloid1's apartment, have written in their first editorial of the new era: 2"The Scene missed us, we had 2to come back and show the way"1. Nervous reactions have appeared in all the most important mags who are afraid of the immense popularity of this historical publication. Voices about the suicide of 3Lord Helmet1, though, must be considered false. 3Jogeir1, who recently joined 2Ram Jam1 (it was the last one he missed), has released the long awaited sequel to his very successful "Tekkno Hard Trakks" music disk. "Tekkkno Harder Trakkks", this is the name of his new masterpiece, is, according to Jogeir, 2"the hardest selection of techno tunes ever appeared on 2a computer since the Vic 20 days!!! Groooovy!!!"1. Interrogated about the melody of his songs Jogeir refused to reply but he assured the reporters than among the modules there's an extraordinary "Face Another Day Trance Remix". Scene Fortune, the most important economic scene magazine, has once again indicated 3Gengis/Complex1 as the Richest Scener of the Year. His incomes have kept their high level with the recent victory at The Party VII, which has assured him 15.000$ tax free. Gengis is the only scener who doesn't consider the scene a game. He codes, as his Amiga revealed us, 13 hours a day. 3Anarchy1 reborns! Some of the historical members of this ancient giant group (24-Mat, Dan, Rush1) have decided to come back to the scene after various years of games production with contradictory results. They have preferred to rebuild one of the biggest and most famous groups of the past. In order to give a stronger kick to their initiative they have even decided to ask to 2Rokdazone1 to resuscitate Stolen Data and have asked to 123 sceners to join. Some scemologists foresee the death of the reborn Anarchy in less than two years. The reason? Bad organization and too many members. 3Abnormalia1 is dead! 2Macno1, main editor of the mag, has decided to definitively let Abnormalia die, he motivated such a mortal decision with few words: 2"Without Rokdazone Abnormalia loses half of its external contributions. I'm too 2old to do a mag alone, adieu"1. The last issue of Abnormalia was released 9 months ago, since then rumours about the future of this mag had been confusing and unclear. Only now we can exclusively reveal you, after a phone discussion with Macno, that Abnormalia is definitively dead. The editors of rival mags like 2Buzz1, 2Pure Data1 and 2Bim Bam1 breath in relief. The old Razor 1911 members have formed The 3New Old Razor 19111 and are in war with the 2Old New Razor 19111. These new old members (basically the makers of Voyage, ancient demo entered in scene history) have explained their decision declaring that 3"these swedish new members have rebuilt Razor without our 3permission, we want to rebuild it again, also because it was never dead and 3therefore it didn't need to be rebuilt"1. The old new members (mostly swedish guys, also responsible for the mag Propaganda) replied that 2"they can't rebuild 2a group that is not dead and since we are not dead they can't rebuild us, when 2we rebuilt them, they were practically dead, therefore we could rebuild the 2group"1. In the meantime some of the old Raxor members have joined Phenomena (We don't know if the new or the old one) but they have decided to join their old Razor group, which happened to be the new one. After this futuristic news, which have already happened, the 3N2e3w2 O3l2d3 N2e3w2 R3a2z3o2r 312931211 members have decided to finally quit the scene and fool once more all the news collectors out there. 3Paranoimia1 are dead! 2Quartex1, desperate and angry for the death of their hated enemies, have decided to die too, in order to have the last word. 3Lord Helmet1 has left the scene! Nauseated by all the evil rumours about him, his wife and his private life, Lord Helmet has sold his Amiga and has left RAW. Someone whispered that the real reason of his departure has been the terrible press campaign against him held by his competitors and the bloody MagWars. 3Wolfium1 commented: 2"Lard Hamlet? Never heard of him"1. 3Colorbird1 commented: 2"A good enemy leaves the scene, I admire him, probably he 2couldn't stand the pressure... I'm sorry but finally Propaganda will dominate 2all the charts"1. 3Mop1 commented: 2"..."1. His comment is too long, we can't report it here, read the integral version in a pair of articles of the next ROM. 3Rune1 commented: 2"Power of the words. He hadn't the numbers anymore"1. 3Macno1 commented: 2"Err... is the RAW code available?" 3Zaniacs 1 are dead! The most important group of the last year, responsible for masterpieces like "Adrenaline", "Magnetic melodies", "Virtual", "Adrenaline II" and "Masters misdeeds" has suddenly splitted up. 2Dugongo1, the mythical coder who is still topping all the scene charts, has started to code commercial software on Power PCs; 2Marameo1 and 2Zundapp1, the fabulous graphics duo, have decided to sell their Amigas; the musician 2Lamantino1 has made a CD and has definitively entered in the music scene; the 1250 contacts swapper 2Jack London has dropped half of his contacts and has joined Anarchy; other members have joined other groups, have left the scene, have started to work on games or have escaped to Australia. 3Polka Brothers1, considered a revelation group just few months ago, has collapsed and its members have left for other groups. The case of this group raised some attention in the past, when, born as a joke team, it soon was joined by the whole danish scene and it managed to produce some very interesting productions who appealled more than few sceners. Now it's all over, Denmark leading group remains 2Walzer Sisters1, the best Polka rip-off, surely more serious than lousy groups like 2TipTap Fathers1, 2Swing Friends1, 2Rock'n'Roll Animals1 and 2Samba Bambas1. 24-Mat1,2 Mantronix1,2 Tip1,2 Wotw 1and 2Jester1 have rejoined the scene striking back with the new group 3"Sterminators"1. Their first production is going to be a disk mag presumably called 2"R.A.P."1 (Revenge And Punish). It seems that the new magazine and the same team intend to survive till the achievement of their declared scope: the annihilation of all the mag editors who had teased them to death in their previous scene life. 2But now, ladies and gentlemen, with a swift and expert move, I finally throw 2away my Crystal Ball and I grab a dusty old diskette, ready to impress the 2audience once more with a shockingly new way of filling space. 2Yes, you are right... you are going to read here a bunch of.... 3 PAST NEWS! 2Yep, not happy of having printed in this issue the news you will read in the 2future, I print here the ones you have read 1some years ago2. Impressive eh? 2Only a mag as Scenarium, that has nothing to lose and has given a brand new 2meaning to the word SHIT, has the face and the guts to rip 4 years old news!
