Is every fart worth a release?
I wonder what you think!
More and more, sid music is presented to us here on CSDB as single release. Some music is worth a release, even with a standard PSID screen. But, to me: Some are not!
Now I know what some of you might say: Taste differs and who are we to decide what is worth of a release?
(I believe we had that discussion with 'just some lame' graphician)
And I know there is not much we can do about it, than bully some people or try to ask some people to refrain from releasing stuff until at least 3 or 4 people say it's worthy of releasing
That being said, I was wondering that 99% of the sidmusic in HVSC was never released on CSDB as a single release. Who wants to take up that job?
And to taunt you even further: I still have 9873 unreleased worktunes, most are about 37 seconds long and sound like shite. Shall I..... ? |

Here's the fabled "Fart editor". I got it from an 80s german print mag (64er or Happy Computer), where its listing was printed as part of a SID sound compo.

HAH! Just googled around, is it true that it is by you, Groepaz? :D
I personally typewrote it down in the 80s, and transferred it some time in the late 90s to the pc. |

No shit. :D
(pun intended).
Well I found your old Geocities page where you claim it as yours.
Shouldn't v1 be added as a release? Who coded that then? |

only thing i remember is that we swapped with the guys who made the original program *shrug* (the one you linked to also looks a bit different than i remember it....mmmh)
while at it, this is also worth mentioning (another type-in =P) |

Hahaha the results are rather funky I must say. :D
About the fart editor version I posted, it's the one that was in the 64er mag. It's on my first ever floppy disk along with my own basic programs and a handful of other type-ins. It's situated inbetween other programs from the same sound effect compo:
Might be I added the "MIEF MIEF" label in my childish joy, though. |

You sound like old grumpy farts, that's what I think. :) Every release has it's place. I don't mind fart sids - in fact I find it kind of liberating that people can release anything they like. I'm pretty sure that most of us did some pis poor stuff in the past that was released and would deserve a (gentle) beating in the comments. |

I'd say its the coder / compositor / graphician that determines what to release and what not, nobody else!
It can be frustrating to see 10-20 releases by the same author on a daily bases but it still his / hers descision wether it is a release or not...
Andalso, what Stinsen said! |
