Noclip has an amazing documentary about Wipeout 2097 music: https://youtu.be/-nwWpQJFGp8?si=f96-_G3bBqmGEP_c


Fun fact: A high-quality prototype of the original PS1 Wipeout is shown in the movie Hackers (arcade scene). It was done on a high-end SGI server and allowed the dev team to try out tracks and gameplay before porting to the Playstation. There are features and graphics in the movie that do not exist in the actual game.


Ah, I'm glad the demoscene gets a mention. One does not make music on a computer in the 90s without at least some, or possibly a whole truckload of, influence from the demoscene.

who remembers Ojuice.net?


I do, and the original Nectarine radio, Hugi demo mag, Assembly early days, Breakout,....

Feeling oldie. :)


Clicked link, heard Firestarter, A+ for meeting expectations.


Only just clocked yesterday that Keith FLINT would be a literal fire starter.

Twenty eight years!

I’m ashamed of myself.


I'll save you the wait, tinder + match = fire !
