                    ...---===[ Thoughts on EGG3 ]===---...
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Hello, I have been wanting to write something for TraxWeekly for some
 time now, but only now have an excuse. :] Anyway I'm writing about EGG3
 "Feelin' Groovy".

    First a bit of an introduction: I am a coder, not a musician, you may
 know me from #coders not #trax! 8) Although occasionally I do appear in
 #trax, that is rare. But I was saying, Im from Australia, and I am in a
 group called 'xtatic'! Despite being a coder I always read Trax Weekly,
 and I like it, even tho I only actually read about 25% of each issue, It
 is a good 25%! :]

    Well, on to the article.. I just recently (today) FTP'ed and listended
 to EGG3. It wasnt fun FTPing it as Australia is not know for fast internet
 connections! :( But anyway, here are my thoughts on it.

    Firstly the interface. This was the most shocking part, I really didn't
 like the interface. For many reasons, but mostly its size. It was over a
 Megabyte! I was shocked by that alone, from experience I wound not think
 the interface would need to be over 100-200k! Now the actually interface
 while listening to the music was dissapointing, mainly because of the fact
 that it was almost identical to EGG2. It only had a few small changes, such
 as the background graphics were different, and there was only one new effect
 to watch while listening to the music. But otherwise it was the same, and
 that interface, in EGG2 as well, was not too good. Some things I'd like in
 the interface is to be able to choose the next song without stopping the
 current song and waiting for it to start another one that plays while the
 next one. Also I would prefer some new effects to look at while listening
 to music, they were nice in EGG2 but over used in EGG3..

    But, I guess the main thing with the interface was the graphics. That
 is obviously what made it so big, and that is what I didnt like about it.
 The main problem with the graphics was that they were only 256 colours!
 They were obviously originally more than that, probably 24bit colour, but
 they had been dithered down to 256 colours, and it was very noticable. :(
 Now, the actual graphics suited the music quite well, but I still didnt
 really like them.

    Now I'll mention the music (! :]). I liked a lot of the music in EGG3,
 there were some nice tunes but not as many really good ones as in EGG2,
 some of the best were by, Karl, Siren, Nemesis, Primal and Chuck Biscuits.
 But most of the music was not that great, unlike EGG2 which had some really
 memorable Ambient tunes, such as those by Maral, and Phoenix.

    I guess the thing I have hinted on in this article is the size! The size
 of EGG3 is unbelievable, 6.7Meg compressed! And over 10mb uncompressed!
 That shocked me at first, and it was very annoying spending 3 hours FTPing
 the thing! :> I really think the size is excessive, for many reasons, one
 being the quality is not as great as the quantity. And more importantly the
 size really does influence the amount that the disk is distributed! Now I
 thought one of the purposes of Kosmic (or EGG, or whoever was in charge of
 the disk) was to achieve world wide distribution!? Now if so they failed
 misrably! Simple proof of that is in the fact that I FTP'ed the thing from
 kosmic.wit.com not ftp.cdrom.com as it wasnt on ftp.cdrom! And it has been
 over a week or two since its release. Also how many BBS's let users download
 7 megs a day? And if you can only download one part per day then why bother?

    Well, enough winging.. I think that Kosmic (or whatever) should take a
 good look at PeekaBoo by Acme, or maybe even Expoze (grin), as those have
 been 'designed' much better! Yes I do believe that design plays a large
 part in even the music scene. Now PeekaBoo, by Acme, is in my opinion the
 best music disk around! It is not too big, only 2mb, and it only had 5
 songs, but those 5 were of very high quality, and one in particular,
 'Whoa' by Vic/Acme, (all the songs were by Vic) I couldnt get out of my
 head! It is one of the best Ambient type songs I have ever heard! Now that
 music disk (Peekaboo) was very well done, the graphics were nice, tho I
 didnt really like any of the drawing in the slide show, it looked nice,
 and it was not too big! Same goes with Expoze (by Heretics), that had some
 very nice gfx and good music to go with it!

    In conclusion, EGG3 was nice but WAY to big, and not 'designed' very
 well. You should see the flames I get when my demos exceed 500k! 8) In EGG4
 I hope the creators do try to keep the size down, it doesnt have to have
 that many songs.. Nor does the interface 'have' to be in SVGA, mode-x is
 great! :) Well, thats more of a coders opinion... Perhaps the title of this
 should be 'A coders Opinion of EGG3'?? 8) I did like the fact that the
 interface was in a separate archive, and in EGG4 I will probably just get
 the music! :\

    Well, thats all I have to say, ignore me if you will (:]), or email me
 with your comments! :}

 Interviewer: Clef [EPiNiCioN]                       clef@shell.break.com.au
 Interviewee: Jase [Oxygen/Enigma]               jlchong@tartarus.uwa.edu.au

 Yeah.. after NetSplits, Capture problems, and Time limits.. the interview
 is here :)

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Clef - OK... you can start by telling us your name, age, occupation,
        affiliations, etc...

 Jase - My name is Jason Chong, hence my tag Jase. I've just turned 20 (old!
        hehe).. in my 4th year of my Bachelor of Science and Engineering
        degree ... I'm in the demo groups Oxygen and Enigma.

 Clef - What made you want to enter MC3?

 Jase - Basically I just wanted to see how I fared against other composers in
        the world.. just like everyone else :) but I did set myself some
        goals.. to get top 5 :) to make sure an XM gets top 5.. and the goal
        which I was extremely surprised to manage to do .. win (and beat
        Necros :) hehehee).

        I nearly didn't enter MC3 coz the competition ended during my exam
        time. but I managed to find some hours in the last 2 weeks to do my
        tune.

 Clef - Did you really expect to get first place? or just in the just in the
        top 5?

 Jase - I didn't expect to get first place.. maybe top 5 coz I heard that
        Necros and a few other top musos were entering, and also coz I didn't
        think a symphonic tune would win twice in a row.

 Clef - So you like FT2?  Why did you feel so strongly about getting an XM
       in the top 5?

 Jase - I like FT2 yes :) but I just didn't like how some people gave it the
        thumbs down before trying with it.. also, some people said that since
        no good tunes came out in XM that it wasn't worth trying XM. So, I
        sort of wanted to put out a good XM (although there are other good
        XMs around) and also kind of display its benefits (eg in envelopes)
        over s3m and other formats.

 Clef - Well... you're from Australia as most of us know! :)  What do you
        think about the Australian music scene in general?  Do you think
        it's going anywhere?

 Jase - It is definitely growing fast !! There are some extremely good
        composers coming outta oz (eg Firelight, CB, Jedi, etc etc.. ).
        I've also heard about a few more demo/music groups around so the
        demo scene is growing.  Hopefully with oz95 coming up there will be
        continued greater interest...

 Clef - What kind of real music influences you?

 Jase - All sorts :) hehe. I've done classical music for nearly 15 years now
        so that is a major influence.. besides that.. I did go through a
        G'n'R and Metallica stage (playing their stuff - even analysing it
        :) :) ), Satriani.. on the other hand, I now like US House and hence
        some of my later House tracks.

 Clef - OK.. which tracker music influences you?

 Jase - hehe... there's so much out there but recently since our international
        access has been restricted on one of my accounts I haven't downloaded
        much... I still put Skaven's Ice Frontier and Purple Motion's
        Starshine as my favourites... I like any good tracker music..

        Lately I've liked more huge symphonic demo music sort of sounds like
        BigJim's stuff.. also I'm into realism now so I use some of Necros'
        stuff as inspiration :)

 Clef - When did you start tracking?

 Jase - I started tracking in about November 93 after my first year's Uni
        exams were over.. My first pieces were not very good at all (but I
        somehow get the most mail from those?? hehe).

        The first demo and tracked music I ever heard was probably Unreal by
        FC. I heard it and at that time I was starting to do some MIDI
        composing.. I really didn't know what the tracker scene was like but
        I asked around and started on FastTracker playing with some awful
        samples from my SY35. After that I started downloading mods like
        Aminet ones.. my previous musical background was a great advantage
        for my composing though...

 Clef - What real instruments do you play?

 Jase - I've played for the violin for nearly 13 years now so I've had a
        strong classical background. I can also play the piano and in the
        last 5 years I've taken up the electric guitar.

 Clef - How do you start a song?

 Jase - I usually start by mucking about on a keyboard, piano, guitar or
        even by singing in the car. Sometimes I get ideas when I hear
        something new on the radio, etc =) Once I get a few ideas for some
        major sections I try draft out a structure/plan in my head. Then I
        look for the samples to match the type of tune it is.. the samples
        must fit the ideas I have.  Once I've prepared all this I start
        tracking the tune. After that comes all the revisions, etc to get
        it to sound and flow right :)

 Clef - Have you any tips for beginner trackers?

 Jase - I have this feeling that some people just sit in front of the
        computer, in front of the tracker with a bunch of samples and then
        just try and compose without any ideas at all. My main tip is just
        to get an idea first of what you want to compose.. get the feel.. of
        course, sometimes you can only get a feel by playing around with a
        few samples.. but then lots of people fall into the trap of basing
        their whole tune on this.. take one step away from your piece at some
        stages and listen to it like it's the first time you've heard it or
        it's someone else's piece..

 Clef - Where can we find your stuff?

 Jase - There's not much stuff at all I'm afraid. My output isn't very high.
        Of what there is out there, the lastest is all on hornet (some under
        j-*.zip and others are jjj-*.zip) but thanks to Jensi there's a few
        tunes with Mod4Win. There's pointers of my later stuff in my homepage
        though if anyone's interested :)

        You can visit my homepage at

        http://www.uwa.edu.au/student/jlchong/jase.html

        or email me at either

        jlchong@tartarus.uwa.edu.au

        or

        chong_jl@ee.uwa.edu.au

 Clef - Would you like to greet anyone?

 Jase - First, many thanx to the organisers of MC3 - snowman, dan, floss and
        whoever else was involved. It definitely was very successful judging
        by the numbers of entries and the quality of music in it! hmm. I
        don't like giving out individual greets but kudos to Firelight for
        help me out from the very start.. greetz to Oxygen and all other
        Ozzie musos and coders - i might see you at oz95 *grin* and of course,
        a huge greet to my girlfriend Su-Lyn for always being there for me..
        and having to put up with many tapes and listening sessions to my
        tune.. and thanks for suggesting those tubular bells !! *hugs*

 Clef - Thanks for the interview!

 Jase - No problem!

 Clef - Cya!
