From Chip Chop 17; "HI CHIP CHOPPERS AND ALL THE GOOD'OL'MODULES FANS THAT WERE / KNOW / CHERISH THE GOOD OLD 90S AMIGA/PEECEE DEMOSCENE! IT HAS NOW BEEN 30+ YEARS SINCE I WROTE MY LATEST DEMOSTYLE SCROLLER... SO LET'S SEE IF I DIDN'T LOSE MY HABITS AND AM STILL ABLE TO WRITE ONE THAT WILL SCROLL WHILE YOU'LL LISTEN TO MY FIRST CHIPTUNE IN SOMEWHAT 20+ YEARS, A TRACK WRITTEN IN THOSE AWFUL CORONAVIRUS-PANDEMIC YEARS, WHILE WE WERE LOCKED DOWN FOR THE SECOND TIME IN FRANCE, A TIME I LOST MOST OF MY FRIENDS, NOT THROUGH THE PANDEMIC ITSELF, BUT BECAUSE I DARED TO EXPOSE SOME ABSURDITIES OF THE LOCKDOWN RULES, SOMETHING THAT TURNED ME INTO A ""CONSPIRACY THEORICIAN"" TO THEIR EYES, EVEN IF SCIENCE PROVED ME RIGHT ON EVERY POINT SINCE THEN... I HOPE WE'LL NEVEREVER HAVE TO GO THROUGH SUCH A NIGHTMARE, NOR FACE A WORSE ONE, AS THE EUROPEAN NEWS ARE FORECASTING IT... ON A LIGHTER SIDE, LET ME ALSO TELL YOU THAT THE INTRO NOTES OF THAT CHIPTUNE WERE USED IN THE BOOKTRAILER TO MY NOVEL ""LE LIVRE QUI PARLE DE TOI"" (""THE BOOK THAT TELLS ABOUT YOU""), PUBLISHED IN LATE 2022 IN FRANCE (AND IN FRENCH, SORRY...) BY M+ EDITIONS. YEP GUYS, SINCE THE DEMO DAYS, MY LIFE CHANGED QUITE MUCH AND I AM A NOVELIST NOWADAYS (YEP!)... MAYBE ONE DAY ONE OF MY WORKS WILL GET TRANSLATED IN YOUR LANGUAGE TOO! BTW, ONE OF MY UPCOMING NOVEL PROJECT WILL BE SOMEWHAT AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL, AS THE ACTION WILL TAKE PLACE IN THE 90S DEMOSCENE... THE NOVEL WILL BE CALLED ""DEMOMAKER"" (YEP, EVEN IN FRENCH!) AND WELL... LET'S HOPE MY PUBLISHER WILL ACCEPT SUCH AN UNCONVENTIONAL PROJECT! FOR THE REST, GREETINGS TO ALL THE PEOPLE I USED TO KNOW BACK THEN, MY REALTECH/DZONE/CAFFEIN MATES, LIZARDKING, MAF,... AND OF COURSE CORINNE AND MURIEL, THE TWO GIRLS ALL MY MODULES WERE DEDICATED TO BACK THEN... THANKS ALSO TO RAMON DE BRUIJN FOR LETTING ME TAKE PART IN THAT AWESOME PROJECT :-) FOR THE REST, FEEL FREE TO FOLLOW ME ON FACEBOOK AND INSTAGRAM WHERE I AM UNDER MY REAL NAME (PHILIPPE MEISBURGER) AND LET'S KEEP IN TOUCH... I'D FOR SURE STILL HAVE THOUSAND MORE THINGS TO SAY (DIDN'T YOU KNOW NOVELISTS ARE TALKATIVE?), BUT WELL, I GUESS I'M ALREADY BY FAR EXCEEDING MY TEXT QUOTA SO WELL... HAPPY LISTENING TO THIS FUNNY ""LOCKDOWN LIBERATION"", AND LET'S STAY IN TOUCH!"
