Handle id #4504 : Euratom

Could anyone enlighten us if Euratom really was just one single person.
I believe it was actually a group of 3 people;
Harold (Coder), Gordon (Graphician) & Extermer (Musician).

Funny you say that... :)
The STIL said before it was a cover of Kim Wilde.
But I was the one who removed it, as I don't see it as a cover of it. Might be some similarities, but I don't think it's that much... Please sing the lyrics to the SID and send me a MP3... ;)

Damn, I actually thought it was a Kim Wilde song ;) ... I think the bassline sounds pretty like something Markus Müller would make but could of course also be the kind of bassline Edwin would make... No matter what I would have wished I did the song :D

Ok, fast forward the song to 0:18 and when the arpeggios set in, sing along, everybody:

Set me free why don't you babe
get out of my life why don't you babe
'cause you don't really love me
you just keep me hanging on

That just fits exactly, both melody wise and rhythm wise - and IMHO would justify a STIL entry.

It fits a bit, yes... maybe if you send an mp3 when you're singing it? Put it online.
Groepaz is also interested in it.
Oh, we won't spread it, and we won't make fun of you! ;)

Markus says: "Definitely i was inspired by Kim Wilde's mid and late 80s style (and i still like her music today)..."

I wonder why EvS named his version of it to Vlindertjes & why he stated he had done the original if it was actually made by Superbrain... I got a weird feeling about this so I loaded up Vlindertjes to read the scroller, this is what he wrote:

HMMM I GOT THE FEELING THIS TUNE SOUNDS FAMILLIAR!! YEAH, IT WAS IN THE PAPPILION INTRO A FEW YEARS AGO!!! WELL, LET ME EXPLAIN THAT TO YOU!! TWO YEARS AGO, ON THE VENLO MEETING , SOMEONE STOLE MY 'SOUNDMONITOR' DISK, WITH THIS (MY!) TUNE ON IT!!! A FEW WEEKS AFTER THAT, I FOUND THE TUNE (SOME SOLO'S LEFT OUT, AND A TRANSPOSE DOWNWARDS) IN THE PAPILLION INTRO!! AND NOW, AFTER MORE THEN 2 YEARS, I FOUND A SCRATCHED VERSION OF THE SOUNDMON VERSION (THE ORIGINAL!) ON AN OLD WORK DISK!!! AND THEN I THOUGHT, WELL... I THINK THE TIME IS RIGHT NOW TO COME UP WITH THE REAL STORY , AND RELEASE THE TUNE MYSELF!! AND HERE IT IS.... A BIT MODIFIED, AND PUT IN THE ONE AND ONLY 20CC SID-PLAYER (YYAAAH!!) AND I MUST ADMIT, THAT AFTER ALL THAT AFTER ALL THAT TIME, IT STILL SOUNDS COOL
I HOPE I MADE EVERYTHING CLEAR NOW, AND THAT'S WHERE THIS TEXT ENDS...... BYE


In other words there should be more Soundmonitor tunes made by Edwin, probably composed when he called himself The Silicon Expert.

This is damn weird... To be honest, sorry Edwin, I don't believe you, this just sounds too much like Superbrain... If I am wrong in my claim, please forgive me Edwin. I don't know why I doubt this. I just do! ... Maybe this comment is a bit inappropriate but I just have to say what I mean and I don't have any hard evidence... I just wonder why Edwin didn't come forth with this information before. He was a member of the scene and most probably seen the Papillion intro. Besides the story about the tune getting stolen sounds pretty weird, especially when Markus confirms that he did it and considering the amount of soundmonitor tunes that Markus did. Please Markus send us some evidence or maybe some Papillion members want to enlighten us a bit ;)
