But what history has occurred recently with Himik'om
(Published at his request):
Recently on the track Andrei Smirnov (Ded Smirnoff) 'Im
Scorn Oneself 'was written by a wonderful remix. On offer
Kristoph'u in tribute to Andrew to make this song the first and
home in the next issue of Scream, he replied that this work
will stand on an equal basis with others, and no separation
from other it does not receive, and if so, I just do not need
this track. Everything.
At this Himik asked myself the same answer to it:
'I wonder how you think he was right or not? Did I
something many asked? Is it impossible to implement, or
it will drop the image of the magazine? Or something else? In
the end, he could have a magazine and make the corresponding
article on this about Andrew. If someone thinks we are too much
we want and we are very long mourn the loss, I'll tell you - we
will mourn his entire adult life, since Andrew was a friend of
ours ... And to humiliate him, I will not let anyone ...
My opinion - Christophe wrong, and moreover, he did not
Why not fumbles in life and in its terms. Do not appreciate the
friends and does not know what it is. Do not know what honor
and loyalty. Creating a "masterpiece" - buries his human self. "
As for my opinion (Survivor), I am nothing in this
I do not understand, just because of insufficient information.
The only thing would be to condemn Kristoph'a, so it
because if the reason for his refusal to put the track in the
magazine was reluctant to do so, in principle, due to the fact
that he was not familiar with Ded Smirnoff, or at least give
the info in the magazine Scream in the fact that the remix of
original track was made in memory of the author.
Nevertheless, Ded Smirnoff is alive! He comes alive ... He
gets what he wanted ... Apparently so arranged life
that only after the death of you are starting to talk and
appreciate. Team PoS-Wt in the unrealizable indebted to Andrew,
all of we are responsible for what happened ...
We have lost contact with him ... On behalf of all members
of the group PoS-Wt, relatives and friends Andrew - expressed
great thanks Nik-o/Techno Lab, for his help and faith! For what
he is not afraid of anything, without regard to their personal
problems and cases manually using pen and paper, wrote the
second remix music Andrew. And he wrote a very high quality and
professionally. Nikitin, Oleg - was the name of someone who
remembers and Andrew appreciates. Thank you very much. We have
someone equal.
Battered women stsenovy musician Nick-O. Against him
committed violent acts that cause physical
pain. Scum of the light from large fines to prison!
October 15, 2001, a team of Perspective Group, known

A few words in support of the musical map GS'512k!
Perhaps the most hit game of all generations spektrumistov
is a blockbuster Target Renegade! Yes, this game is worth
to escape from P4 $% by Intel and crosses a couple of shaved
nape of the necks! But that said about his work on the game Mike
Blum, when he voiced it under the GS:
Mike Blum: The game is designed on the GS with 512K memory,
although in highly truncated form is at 128K. In my opinion -
is one of the most successful games dubbed, which may well
compete with Chase H.Q. and Target Renegade.
By the way, music and effects in the game in the style of
Target Renegade. Music taken from the Amiga game Slam Tilt and
a few edited with (forgive me the authors of the third level
with prostitutes:)). Effects kick from anywhere, and processed
Sound Forge 4.5. I must say that I tried to insert more
meat blows and screams - some falling into the abyss of which
are: every boss, aunt, guys, and I yell in different ways!
...
It has long ceased Passion of the Black Raven 2 ...
Reasons mentioned below will shed some light on the misty
history with the project of Fame Mednonogova:
Mike Blum: Many people are interested in the fate of Voice
sabzh. I say that with my hand back in May 1999 was
aka layout FT-2, which I was kindly made Glory
Mednonogov. Were matched 100% of the music and sounds. Driver
with unique technologies was made on 95 per cent. Remained
protests in his name in action on the game and put the defense.
Total amount of work was done by 50 percent.
In summer 1999, FT-2 project was shelved, and the summer of
2000 appeared that if the project will be resuscitated, then
without the support of GS, and that the most interesting -
without AY! The reason simple - the graphics do not have enough
memory. If someone wants to see the FT-2 with GS support - can
lather your request to Slavin copper_feet@mail.ru box or on my
mike_blum@mail.ru.
...
?? So much time !?????? It turns out that fame brought
Mednonogov all astray! Need a more detailed inspection.
