North Star Interview
       INTERVIEW WITH NORTHSTAR

State your name and group.            

I am Death Bringer and I'm a member of
North Star.                           

Ok. North Star is truly one of the big
legends, but the last year, everything
seemed to stop.  What really happened?
                                      
Sure  we're one of the living legends,
but  last  year we got tired of having
to release stuff continuosly...  So we
started  releasing  less  and less and
then  nothing more for about 6 months!
Anyway, we're still a good crew... But
everyone though  we  were  dead!  Now,
instead of producing 5 or 6 ugly demos
in form of a megademo,  we  prefer  to
code one good demo!  By the way, today
we're doing what we want, and we don't
have to receive orders from other guys

Are North Star 100% legal now, or do  
you still keep cracking?

Of course we're 100%  legal,  we  don't
crack at all.

How many members are there in NorthStar
and from which countries are they?

There are too many members, about 30-40
cool guys in Sweden and in France.

How  long  have you been in North Star,
and how did you join?

I've been in North Star for 4-5 months.
I joined them when I left a really lame
French crew (now!) with Viro,  Raistlin
and Flyspy. We joined NorthStar because
we searched for a new group, and Raist-
lin was a good friend of Kaktus,  so it
was easier for us.

I have nothing to be afraid of,  and I
have never had any trouble.           
                                      
Hmmm. Tell me, how old are you really?
                                      
I  am  seventeen  years old since June.

Are you still a virgin???

No thank God! (Silly question (Why? Ed)

How  much time do you spend in front of
your Amiga every day? What is that time
occupied with?

During the holidays... A lot! Maybe too
much... Most of the time (in holidays),
I listen to Amiga music while reading a
diskmag or a scrolltext!  Then  I  use:
X-Copy,  Noisetracker,  DPaint and Seka
(even Amigamon 3.0 & Fast Mon). I think
even  a swapper should be able to code,
draw or compose!

Do  you  have a hobby except for Amiga?

Of course.. Hunting (? - Ed) for girls,
playing tennis and I go skiing.

DA INTERVIEW WILL GO ON.....
What do you think about the scene now?
Will  it  get  better  or worse in the
future?                               
                                      
The scene today is changing... No more
mail swapping!  All  good swappers buy
(or will buy) a modem.  I think that's
good for business, but not for friend-
ship.I think it's really hard to speak
about  the  future but the scene might
become   better  since  some  powerful
cracking groups (Paradox and Skid Row)
are not at war.  They're good friends.
In fact,  the best cracking crews must
show us the way to be friends...  They
understood   that   when   "Friendship
against business" was born!           
                                      
What do yuo thing about modems? Do you
have a modem yourself??               
                                      
Modems are good if you want to be fast
but they are too  expensive.  I  don't
have a modem, so I only trade by mail.
It's cheaper....                      
What equipment do you use???

I use:
- Amiga 500 (Kick 1.2), 3½" & 5¼" drive
  and 1084 colour monitor.
- C64 + 1570 diskdrive + Philips TV.
.... And of course Techincs stereo amp-
lifier + CD,  and  soon a VHS (X-mas!!)

What  do  you think about organisations
such as 'Friendship'??

They're cool,we can know many cool guys

Do you have a girlfriend???

Of course. But I must say, none of them
ever fancied my Amiga....

What's  the  best  girl  country in the
world (Hint:Norway's got Miss Universe)

The French riviera  (Wrong! - Ed),  coz
it  looks  like  California but here we
can see their tits! (Prohibited in USA)

Is  it  true  what  people  say  about
Frenchmen?   Are   you   really   more
romantic than the rest of us Europeans
or is that just a 'legend'?           
                                      
Yo, sure! When we talk to the girls we
are  so romantic that they all fall in
our beds!
                                      
Well, hmmm., I think we should go back
to something else... Like the standard
question: What do you think about copy
parties,  and  would you ever consider
going to scandinavia to visit a party?

I think copy parties are cool, you can
meet contacts and so. I think it would
be  better  if  Scandinavian countries
weren't so far away.....              
                                      
What  are  NorthStar's  future  plans?

We're planning a music disk called His
Master Of Noise, coming in December 90
and  we were supposed to have released
2 demos in July, but we failed...  Any-
way,  these 2 demos (no names yet) will
be out soon.  The French members of N.S
are working on 2 games.  They  will  be
released soon. 

Do   you   want   to   greet  somebody?

Yes...  Greets  to  Exen/Fraxion  (Nice
letters!), Blackstar/CRB (Nice sense of
humour!  I love it! (?? - ED)), Oliver/
Paradox  (Good  luck  for November 90),
Teeze/Anarchy (So you weren't dead) and
all  NorthStar  members  and  contacts!

Any final words?

Yep. Special fucking to Saddam Hussein.
You  will  soon see the consequenses of
an  American  atomic  bomb exploding in
Iraq!!!

Thanx for the interview pal!
