     'THE MIX' - 90minute audio tape with DoMiNAToR's music got released. 50 tapes gets manufactured - all of them sold. More info is available in the 'hARdCoRRoSioN promo v2.0' article in the MUSIC section of hARdCORE#4, or directly by mail to corrosion@matgnet.com

     The release of our first music video - PHUSE, made for the track from the forthcoming hARdCoRRoSioN promo. The video was heavilly broadcasted throughout a lot of TV stations. The single was almost a month and a half residing on the first place of the yugoslav techno list on radio, although it was totally different from the other trance-shit music.

[11-23-96]
     DoMiNAToR held concert in Belgrade club Industria with KKPTSAI, organized by TECHNOCRATIA. This event, called YU:GO@, was totally disconceptual mix of GOA played by dj's and HardCore breakbeats from two heavily armed music crews. Technically, this event was a supreme demonstration of the new powerfull OctaMED SoundStudio software we started to heavilly abuse. Along with the music attack, we prepared a 43 minute video material, especially designed to support the music performance. A complete success! Read the phuzzy logik's report on the event!

     wiz/hitchhikers, the coder behind hARdCORE has gone to army 2 days ago. this means that coded issues of hardcore will be heavily delayed for some time in the future...

     CoRRoSioN is back from SCENEST. we had a wonderful time with great people but the party itself SUCKED A LOT!. it was bad organised, and the competitions were bad organised which is obvious if we mention the fact that the pc group ASTROIDEA was the organiser. the IMPULSE was doing it's best but they weren't allowed by the main organiser to do something better.

At SCENEST we released a 64k intro, we had 2 entries in the gfx compo and one in the 4ch music compo. Intro was 5th, Alex's picture was 9th, M-G's picture was 13th, DoMiNAToR's 4channel module was 11th. all in all, we were at the right places, because the winning gfx and modules sucked! our intro was ok, but the other entries had far better code, so... we sat down to improve!

At this point, it is important to mention that BORG, our 64k intro for Scenest, introduced our new coding force, Griffin. BORG was produced by Griffin, Suffocator, Alex and DoMiNAToR.

     We organized a demo party, the largest ever in Yugoslavia. It was big success, and we are already working on another one in September. The party was called SCENE STRIKE ONE, and you can read more about it in the phuzzy logik's article in YUSCENE section of hardcore #4.

Our releases on SCENE STRIKE were: BrainSurgery demo made by the same production team as BORG, 4channel modules by Alex, Paranoid and DoMiNAToR, multichannels by DoMiNAToR and paranoid, pixelled gfx by Alex and marcus garvey, photoshop gfx by Paranoid, raytraced gfx by griffin and gyro and last, but not the least, animation for wild compo, CoRRoSioN 6-minute long promo made by DoMiNAToR and marcus garvey.

SCENE STRIKE was part of our bigger project generally named Creative-Tech Week, whose aim was to promote computer generated art into public. It covered 2d and 3d gfx and animation, computer music, demo coding, ascii art, net.art and many, many topics about cyberpunk, films and various other uses of computers as an artistic tool.

Check out the experimental CTW web page at www.matgnet.com/ctw. There you'll find some of the art shown at the exhibition, mostly Yugoslav creations are put up there.

Also be aware that www.matgnet.com/ctw2 is the web page to check out if you're interested in the next CTW and SCENE STRIKE 2!
