    Kolega z Holandii o ksywie Analmux jest znany bardziej na forum AtariAge niz w Polsce, ale wzial ostatnio udzial w naszym konkursie, a takze uwaznie skomentowal wszystkie dopuszczone utwory.

    Oto jego opinie (pozostawilem w jezyku angielskim, zeby nie wprowadzic jakis przeklaman, bo nie znam sie na terminologii muzycznej):

    "I found it was very hard to make any judgement at all about the (other) tunes, but after a few listening sessions I made final choice of scores for all (other) tracks. I took my time to come to these results, as I tried to judge a few basic aspects of the songs.

    1. 4Tk35
    -Comments on Music: Nice build-up.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: Conventional instruments, bass somewhat out of tune.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: Fast arpeggios somewhat disturbing.
    -Comments on Originality: Surprising variations.
    -Opinion: Nice tune and playful effects.
    Total Score: 4

    2. Duper-Super
    -Comments on Music: Slow build-up. The tune doesn't really get started. Though there are nice melodies here and there.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: No drums/percussion. Bass somewhat out of tune.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: Sometimes the volume of instruments are not in balance.
    -Comments on Originality: None.
    -Opinion: Not that interesting. The tune doesn't really stay in mind either.
    Total Score: 1

    3. Here Comes the Night
    -Comments on Music: Relaxed atmospere, but also this tune doesn't really get started.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: Very much out of tune, though some instruments sound interesting.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: None.
    -Comments on Originality: None.
    -Opinion: This song doesn't really ask for more.
    Total Score: 2

    4. Naue
    -Comments on Music: Tempo-changes are a bit odd. The end comes somewhat unexpected.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: Nice instrument combinations here and there. Bass is a bit out of tune though.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: A lack of balance. Nearly all notes play at the same volume.
    -Comments on Originality: Some unexpected chord-sequences, which is nice.
    -Opinion: The tune is quite joyful, but it doesn't really have an interesting basis.
    Total Score: 2

    5. Cosmic Escape
    -Comments on Music: The tune is quite straight and strong.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: Nice PWM samples.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: Very bad, as it is 1-bit. It gives a lot of artefact noises.
    -Comments on Originality: None.
    -Opinion: Quite nice, even a bit "poppy". It is maybe a bit too long.
    -Other comment: The nice thing is that this song should be able to play on ZX Spectrum also.
    Total Score: 2"

    "6. Kissparty
    -Comments on Music: Very interesting notes and schemes.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: Very good drums and arpeggios. Bass could be different though, as sometimes it is too flat.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: Very good.
    -Comments on Originality: None.
    -Opinion: Nice tune.
    Total Score: 4

    7. The Last Song
    -Comments on Music: A bit simple. Lack of structure. Some nice melodies though.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: The arpeggios are irritating, and the polycounter instruments are somewhat out of tune, and the drums/percussion isn't really nice. Though, I aprreciate the effort of experimenting with the polycounter type of sound.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: The chosen sounds are a bit shrill. Could be better when volume balance is different.
    -Comments on Originality: Quite original tune.
    -Opinion: Nice tune, but it's a pity the instruments are a bit out of balance.
    Total Score: 3

    8. Lost and Found
    -Comments on Music: Nice build-up. At one moment there's a weird transition.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: Very good, but again the bass is a bit out of tune.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: Very good.
    -Comments on Originality: Sounds very familiar.
    -Opinion: Nice tune with nice variations.
    Total Score: 5

    9. Podnieta
    -Comments on Music: Doesn't come out nice. Drums are a bit missing. The structure of the song isn't clear, and there's not much variation.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: Doesn't always fit. Bass again. However, the synth-articulation is nice.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: Arpeggios not that nice.
    -Comments on Originality: Quite original.
    -Opinion: The tune has nice chords and nice melodic pieces, but doesn't listen licely in total.
    Total Score: 3

    (10. Instrumentarium: No Score assigned, I cannot vote for myself :) )

    11. Follow Your Dream
    -Comments on Music: Nice note slides. A bit monotonous, and it misses a bit of structure.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: Standard instruments, but they are good. Some daring instruments lateron.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: Excellent.
    -Comments on Originality: Very original.
    -Opinion: Though it is a bit monotonous, the tune sounds really smooth.
    Total Score: 5

    12. Cured by Accident
    -Comments on Music: The monotonous beeps at the start and the end are a bit lame. It's too easy.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: Conventional and good instruments, except the bass again.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: Excellent.
    -Comments on Originality: Not that original. I heard many pokeytunes like this.
    -Opinion: The tune sounds clear and clean. Not very interesting though. I would give it 4 points if it was also suitable for mono.
    Total Score: 3

    13. Ruskie pierogi
    -Comments on Music: It is a bit structureless. Nice chords, rather simple. Notes are at the right place.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: Irritating arpeggios. Bass is a bit shrill and a bit out of tune.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: Not special, not bad.
    -Comments on Originality: Nice atmosphere, but it is not daring.
    -Opinion: The tune has a bit summery character, but lacks a bit of extra energy.
    Total Score: 3

    14. Sunset on the Moon
    -Comments on Music: Not that much structure. Unexpected end.
    -Comments on Instrumentation: Conventional instruments & bass not in tune.
    -Comments on Sound Quality: Excellent.
    -Comments on Originality: None.
    -Opinion: This track doesn't really make appeal to me.
    Total Score: 4

    My opinion is only counted in dubious cases, when I my total score was bouncing f.e. between 3 and 4."

    Dopiero się dowiedziałem, że kolega Analmux, Bernhard Pos z Holandii, zmarł w 2016 roku. :( Spoczywaj w pokoju!

    Szok! :O Również tego nie wiedziałem... Czy coś wiadomo o przyczynach? :( Miał dopiero 35 lat. :(

    Pamiętam go z dyskusji na forum AtariAge w temacie dźwięków i demosceny.
    Znał się na dobrze muzyce, sam trochę tworzył i zależało mu na tym aby więcej wyciągać z możliwości muzycznych na A8. Niejednokrotnie polemizował bądź tylko dyskutował z Emkay'em w tej materii.

    Tu właśnie znalazłem news z Aage:

    R.I.P. Analmux!

    Bardzo przykre.
    Nie wiem czy każdy kojarzy, ale to był człowiek odpowiedzialny za ten genialny kawałek (pamiętamy ten utwór z przymiarki do gry Contra)

    Ten kawałek nie tylko pamiętamy, ale powstał on specjalnie na konkurs AtariOnline.pl w 2009 roku. Co zresztą wiążę się z tym wątkiem, bo właśnie te komentarze Analmuxa dotyczą utwórów z tego konkursu. Jak widać - skromnie nie oceniał swojej pracy, choć była genialna, także dla mnie. I ten kawałek rekomendowałem do wykorzystania (za zgodą autora oczywiście), a nawet w którymś filmiku użyłem jako podkład.

    No i Analmux znany był też ze swojej próby konwersji Super Mario Brothers na Atari:
