Chippy Tunes

Yerzmyey has released a new album called aTTraction, which was produced using Atari computers. This includes an Atari TT with Hex Tracker, a Falcon with Digital Home Studio, and he decided to make a couple of bonus tracks in Cubase using an Atari ST. The final shocker is the extra track created using Chaos Music Composer and NeoTracker on the Atari 600XL. Don't miss this from da' scene - download it now.

Take a gander at his website because he's created even more. As I type, I'm listening to "Wake Up" from the "Chiptunes" album; another fantaSTic album. I've said it before - chip music will last forever!

Race Drivin'

Moments to cherish

Lots of games have cool intros, but Domark's Race Drivin' must rank as one of the best. It may only last a minute or so, but it's a zany mix of Wacky Races and a dollop of Carmageddon thrown in for good measure. A superb intro for what is one of the toughest racers - can you drive in a straight line? Well, I know I can't!!

8BitChip has the hard disk game, and Atari Legend has the floppy disk Sigma #1.

The History of ULM

U..L..M..!!

The other day, I saw a tweet about the Atari ST demoscene from an idiot who is clearly an Amoeba fanboy. Rather than getting drawn in, it inspired me to write this quick piece, as we know the ST has a belting scene that is alive & kicking! (see recent masterpieces like We Were @ + Strange roboTS). Powerful STuff!!

Additionally, there is a web page by Georges Kesseler of ULM. It details his ST history, which I thought was pure gold. I wonder if it was originally part of an older website? An intriguing read of great ST devs.

Page 6

My first PDL

Page 6 is a name filled with Atari history, and there’s even a website dedicated to their magazine. Not only that, but their PD Library software is available to download. I remember buying disks from Page 6 when I became an Atari ST addict, but their magazine had been going long before then, continuing until 1998.

True enthusiasts (that I miss).

"Page 6 is remembered fondly by many Atari owners as a unique and invaluable resource, supporting enthusiasts in the heyday of Atari home computing" - I'd say that sums up Page 6 rather nicely!
