fumi Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 So this is that old track from the Warp Sampler back at the early part of the decade. However, I have never heard this version before. Can anyone throw any light on where it came from? A nice version, I think. Gives the piece a more enigmatic quality than the original. regards The_Story_Of_Xentrix.mp3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bitroast Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 yeah, thats some nice stuff. i never really enjoyed the original anyway. it's kinda cool and definitely got this weird mysterious vibe to it, but its just too short and not enough anything to really appreciate.

Joyrex Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 The original was from a cheap animation done with early animation software - this version you posted is most likely a fan-made creation post-BoC making it notable. I have the original animation/sound and there are no other sound effects besides the voices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyrex Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 It was originally a 3DMM file (Windows Movie Maker), which can be found here: http://www.3dmm.com/showthread.php?t=26852 Robert Domke was the original author. Here's a video of the original if you want to see it: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bitroast Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 so why was it credited to boc on the cd? thanks for the posting the vid/info btw :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bitroast Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 actually, the story is immensely better without the funky keys going on in the background. also, lol at "there was a cave one mile long" with a visual graph saying 1000 miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyrex Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 so why was it credited to boc on the cd? thanks for the posting the vid/info btw :D It wasn't credited to BoC - Hell Interface, who typically take existing works and "rework" them (Trapped, Midas Touch), so this fits in with the HI (Scores) mandate (if there is one; I'm just guessing), although I can't really see what they did with the track to differientiate it from the original. At least with Energy Warning they adding some other sounds to the mix over the lo-fi .au soundfile! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Moebius Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 The original was from a cheap animation done with early animation software Are you certain of that? I remember when this first came up, it was never clearly established if the video took the track from BoC or BoC took the audio from the 3DMM film. As the site you linked said, the film was made in 2003, so it could have very well have been after the WIF0F2003 release on 06 Jan 2003. EDIT: The timestamp of the film itself (in the zip linked from that forum) is 16 Mar 2003. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephen1966 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 BOC wrote the track originally. Cool. I always thought they'd ripped it and maybe tweaked it a little. Welcome back mdg. Any news :sleeping: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyrex Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 BOC wrote the track originally. Ah, good to know the mystery's finally solved. Good detective work on your part as well, Moebius! So I guess it's safe to say that the creator of the video heard the WIFO2003 release, and made a video to accompany it, and not vice-versa as originally though.
