Revision 2026: highs and lows
The biggest demoscene party around, Revision, happened this weekend and we/me had a few things going on.
Firstly, we were nominated in the Meteoriks awards, where the winners are announced at Revision. Anamie was nominated in two categories (best soundtrack and best high-end demo) and CMOS Cosmos was nominated for best direction. We won neither of them. In the competitions, I competed with a 7/8 Amiga IDM-ish chiptune called Yest-26, and a sort-of-anscii-collection called Handle Charts #2. Neither did very well in the compos. I also submitted a song for the streaming music compo that didn't even pass the preselection jury.* I got the revision bluues, oh yeah.**

But something that definitely did do well, was our 40-year-anniversary demo Razor 1911, that won the PC demo competition. Dubmood and me (with help from many others) have worked on this demo for months, with the aim of bringing Razor's history to life. It seems like we succeeded, judging from the feedback at for example Pouet. I mostly did tons of graphics for it, from purist PETSCII to blasphemous post-textmode, but also helped with various bits and bobs, here and there, everywhere.

* it's not the first time I've been rejected in the Revision streaming preselection....
** i might have appeared in other compos under other aliases, still not doing very well
Hack n’ Trade’s Handle Charts #1
Oh hey, a brand new beginning! Hack n' Trade's Handle Charts! It's basically charts with the best/worst/coolest/ridiculosest handles from the scene, divided into categories. Enjoy!
Razor nfo
I've made new nfo-files for Razor, and I think this is the first time one of them is seen in the wild. The previous one was around for for 30+ years, so this might be a big scandal for some. Thumbs up!
