hey all,
i can cast some light on some of the questions about
scene-musicians and things.

For those raving about Dune/Orange, he is indeed
really rather special. As mentioned, he's part of the
slightly amorphous collective BrothomStates (which
seems to also include BakedFred and Yolk sometimes,
two other Helsinki-based musicians, someone correct
me if I'm wrong!)
Anyhow, Distance (Lackluster) hosts the BrothomStates
(real-life-releases!) discography at:
http://www.scene.org/~esa/bsdiscog/index.html
..and there's more Dune/BS stuff, including the live set
and a bunch of MODs and MP3s at:
ftp://ftp.scene.org/pub/music/artists/dune/
..and there's an Orange directory on ftp.scene.org with
a bunch of their amazing PC demos if you never saw them.
A good guide to the best scene-demos nowadays for those
with reasonably decent PCs:

go grab 'em all ;)

Umm, as someone said, Karl/Kosmic (
http://www.kosmic.org)
is the ubiquitous Bogdan, so you can source more of his
early stuff there.

Martin Iveson, aka Nuke/Anarchy+Lemon. or latterly Spaceman,
is still working, as far as I know at Core Design (people who did "Tomb
Raider", fact-fans). His house-y stuff as Atjazz
is released partially on the D.I.Y label outta Sheffield, I think?
Oldskool demo-legend Dan/Anarchy also codes at Core and DJs
house. There's an Atjazz track on the 'Live At The Social
Vol.3' compilation from Heavenly. That's all I know..
--
The Lizardking stuff isn't really idm-related (more synth-pop!)
but the Fashion8 stuff was a duo with another guy, I think
I saw them play live in Holland at a demo-party in '95 actually!
Nice stuff, if a bit cheesy..
--
Other demo-scene people who went on to do more famous stuff?
Patrick Lindsey was Bass/The Silents, and has released on
Harthouse and a bunch of other German labels. Someone told
me Christian Vogel (Super_Collider, etc..) used to track MODs
a whole bunch before he got published..
--
I used to be in the demo-scene on Amiga too, wayback - was
Hollywood/Jetset+Skid Row, also in Axis, and Valhalla on the
PC. Most of the Monotonik guys are scene-related, too..
Sorry about this scene-music obsession, btw, those who've been
touched by the whole geekhackerdemoscenething seem to be just
a bit too evangelical about it. Some really talented people
come out of it, tho, so I guess it's worth it in the long run.. :)
regards,
h0l.
