INTERVIEW WITH      MAD FREAK      OF      ANARCHY     
Made by   Wolfman  /  BALANCE
 
 (MF =   Mad Freak   of   ANARCHY  )
 (BLC =   Wolfman   of   BALANCE  )    

BLC  :   So what is your real name? Age?
Hobbys   (besides computing)  ?    

MF  :   :Well, my real name is   Martin 
Schiøler  ! I'm 19 years old! I like to 
play golf and then some soccer with my
friends now and then...    

BLC  :   What education are you taking?    
MF  :   Well, I'm gonna be educated to a
datamatician at the   Businesschool  !    

BLC  :   When did you start at the scene?    
MF  :   Well, for about 3 years ago when I 
bought my computer! I saw some demos
(it was in the RSI MEGADEMO   time) and
I thought it looked quite exiting and
I began to make some music!    

BLC  :   In which groups have you been?    
MF  :   Well, this is not in any correct
order, but I have been in   Exellence  , 
  Legion  ,   Deadlock  ,   Brainstorm   and now
I'm in   ANARCHY   as you know.    

BLC  :   How do ya like being in ANARCHY  ?
And what do you think of the members?    
MF  :   It's great! I really don't know 
many members, but I do know   Hannibal  
and   Trix   who is a very nice organizer!    

BLC  :   What kinda REAL   music do ya like?    
MF  :   Huh, it's really kind of mixed. Hm,
Front 242  , Front Line Assembly   is quite
nice to listen to, it's industrial 
music, but that is far from all that I
listen to. I really like all kinds of
music. To say it I even like classic 
music as well, so I'd say that my taste 
of music is rather undefinable!    

BLC  :   Do you play any instruments? And
which ones?    
MF  :   Well, I have a keyboard which I
play on, but it's really nothing spe-
cial, I don't play anything like piano
or anything...    

BLC  :   When did you begin to be interes-
ted in music?    
MF  :   When I was 7 years old I began to
listen to a lot of music, but I never
played any instruments at that time!    

BLC  :   From which non-computer com-
posers do you get your inspiration?    
MF  :   HHM, eeer! Well, I don't really get
inspiration from anyone, when I listen
to some music I maybe hear something I
like. Then when I make music I unaware
of it, use a chord or something like
that, but never anything direct, like
some others do...    

BLC  :   How much time does it take you
to make tunes, like the ones in 3D-Demo  ?    
MF  :   Hmmm, about 2 months. I guess that
it's quite a long time    

BLC  :     Hannibal   said in some interviews 
that you are very lazy! Is that true?    
MF  :   Eeeerm, I guess so. I really work
quite slow, I'm gonna have to improve 
that cuz if I'm gonna work at some 
gamemusic it must necessarely go quite
fast, so I will improve (I hope)!    

BLC  :   Who's your favorite computermusi-
cian?    
MF  :   Well, that is an easy one! It is
without doubts   Chris Huelsbeck  . He is
VERY skilled and makes brilliant mu-
sic, so that's who I like...    

BLC  :   There have been a lote of discu-
sion about   Mantronix   &   Tip  /  PHA  ! How do
YOU like them, I mean their style of
music and behaviour?    
MF  :   Well, I gotta say that I have ab-
solutely nothing against them. I know
them both quite well, and I have only
had good experiences with them. Many
say that they can't make nothing than,
disco and things like that,
okay maybe that's what we mostly
have heard from them, but one gotta ad-
mit that they are good at it, I also 
know that they both are really skilled
and is able to make much more than
disco or whatever people say.    

BLC  :   Will you quit the Amiga   sometime
and begin to compose professional, or
what?    MF  :   I wont quit the amiga in any way, 
but I'll begin to make music for games
and stuff like that, that's what I've
always wanted to do and I already have
some things going...    

BLC  :   Will you go to the musicschool?    
MF  :   NO WAY! I do like music very much 
and I really take it seriously, but I
don't beleive that going to school
would really make me much better, nor
would the music I'm making now help
me, I would maybe learn some more stuff
about music and learn to listen to it 
in other ways, but no! I really 
wouldn't like to go to school for seve-
ral years for it, so that's that!    

BLC  :   How do you like the other musi-
cians in   ANARCHY  , like:   Nuke  ,   NHP   &
  BKH  ,   Maestro   etc.    
MF  :   Well, I can't say anything bad 
about any of them. The French guys
are very good and very productive, I
guess that   Nuke   is the coolest musi-
cian in   ANARCHY  , he first of all makes
faboulous nice music. Further more, he
makes his music as HE likes it, he ne-
ver says like: "NOW I wanna make a 
great piece of music that everybody
loves!" he never really makes the music
for the listeners, he makes what he 
likes him self, and everyone else likes
it as well I guess (I know I do)...    

BLC  :   So! What do you think about the
scene these days?    
MF  :   UUH! I'm afraid I have some bad
words for that. I think it kinda stop-
ped! It's like there's nothing really
new going on. It started to stop for
about 1 and a half year ago, just when 
the vector began it's entry for real.
After that it was almost all vector,
vector, vector! Okay now and then 
there were new ideas like plasma and
other small things, but there have been
vector in all demos, maybe not the same
all the time, but vector. I really 
can't say that there's any really re-
volutionary new ideas or legendary de-
mos...   

BLC  :   Then what about HARDWIRED   from
  SILENTS  /  CRIONICS  ?!    
MF  :   Okay! That's an exception, HARDWI-
RED   is really great! There's vector in
that too, but then there's many other
great effects and new ideas, furthermore
the demo is really brilliantly designed
by Kyd  /Balle  !    

BLC  :   What do you think about computer-
music nowadays?    
MF  :   Hmmm, much of it is really nice, 
but a lot of it is really the pure
effecttrip! Like some music from   Man  -
  tronix   &   Tip  , they have a tendensy to
sometimes shadow the melody with all
kind of effect and stuff. It's not
only   MTX   &   TIP  , there's people doing 
it always!
I think that's just what I like about
  Chris Huelsbeck  ! He really makes the
melody and he doesn't hide it in ef-
fects you really get the music and no
more, so that's it!    

BLC  :   Well, I think this was all for now
have you got any words for out honered
readers before you say goodbye?!    
MF  :   Word for your readers?! Well, I....
Uuuuh, Eeeeer...Hnmmmm, NO I wouldn't 
say that, I'm sorry I haven't got any
last words!!    

BLC  :   Well, okay we'll survive without,
see ya and have a nice day! Byeeeee!    
MF  : Yeah bye!
