 Prologue

   Howdy! It's been a while since you saw a major release from me!
   Several key factors where responsible for that, including lack of
|   motivation, the split-up of Pure, few time and other interests...
.   Now that I'm back, let me mention the fact that Hypernova has their
    official homepages on the Web now. For those still thinking that
    our pages are located on CompuServe, update your pointers to our
    new and much faster location (see above).
    You will find all email-addresses on the Member-page. By the way,
    Hypernova is *not* dead, we're taking things slowly for the moment.
    Read all about it on the Story-page. That's about it for the
    prologue, let's talk about this release...

  
 Release

   Since you've all been waiting so long on another release of me,
   I thought to make it special. First of all, you'll see some
|   dramatic changes to the contents of the archive: there are now
.   2 DMF's included. The reason for this is very simple. I have
    so much DMF's laying around here, and not all of them are to be
    considered 'major releases'. That's when I thought of including
    them as a B-side. Not that I didn't finish them up or something,
    but they will be (most of the times) smaller, shorter and less
    complex. In this package, I've included a homage to Kraftwerk
    as B-side. It's a small oscillating track, simple in build-up
    and it sounds like the good old Kraftwerk in their early times.

    What else is there new? Well, if you take a closer look to the
    main module, you'll notice 2 major changes: number of channels
    and filesize. Most of my releases were about 14 channels and
    very small in size. 'Electrophotograpy' consists of 26 channels
    and is about 800kb. That doesn't mean I won't create small DMF's
    with few samples anymore, but it's a nice change...
    You'll also notice the use of a 'prefab' funk-rhythm, which
    fits seamlesly into the mood of the song. It's against my habits,
    but so is this entire release.

    By the way, most of you play DMF's and XM's at maximum volume on
    gigantic speakers etc. Try listening with a good pair of headphones!
    I've arranged the balances of the channels, so you'll be able to
    enjoy a great stereo-experience.

    And finally, I'll try to include some of my artwork with every
    release. I've rescaled them to 320x240 for filesize-reasons,
    but I kept the 24bit depth to provide maximum joy. If you're
    looking for some nifty artwork for musicdisks, webpages or
    whatever, gimme a message...

    Ok, I'm off. Enjoy your trip and let the vibes lead your thoughts!
