Anderton Posted December 14, 2000 Share Posted December 14, 2000 BTW for those into conspiracy theories...SSS appeared at the same time as Windows 95, and was canned by AOL (for being too popular, but that's a whole other story!!) when Windows 98 came out. When Windows 2000 was announced, SSS reappeared on MusicPlayer.com. I suppose this means that when Whistler appears, we'll disappear again!

JohnBartus Posted December 15, 2000 Share Posted December 15, 2000 Gee... what about us Mac users... shouldn't SSS have remained indefinitely? Or was it with the appearance of OS8 that SSS vanished, only to reappear when OS9 surfaced? God bless OS8.6! For those who don't remember SSS on AOL, we had some great discussions and topics, a few memorable flame wars, and a real cool moderator. Makes me wonder... does HARMONICS know about the new SSS? I'd love to get more of his insights (let's see if anybody remembers who HARMONICS was!). Back in those halcyon days of 1995, I had far fewer gray hairs in my goatee, and a whole lot more time to devote to music. Ah, the changes life brings... ------------------ John Bartus Radio Active Productions We Make Great Radio Happen - Guaranteed. 1-888-93-RADIO www.radioactivedigital.com John Bartus Music From The Fabulous Florida Keys www.johnbartus.com www.cdbaby.com/bartus www.radioactivedigital.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenElevenShadows Posted December 21, 2000 Share Posted December 21, 2000 You know, apparently I didn't get the memo... Didn't know that SSS was alive and squirming. 'Course, part of that is my fault since I've known about musicplayer.com for quite some time and didn't explore it properly. I haven't gotten used to these cute little cartoon icons yet... ------------------ Ken/Eleven Shadows/d i t h er/nectar ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ music*travel photos*tibet*lots of stuff "Sangsara" "Irian Jaya" & d i t h er CDs available! http://www.elevenshadows.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ken Lee Photography - photos and books Eleven Shadows ambient music The Mercury Seven-cool spacey music Linktree to various sites Instagram Nightaxians Video Podcast Eleven Shadows website Ken Lee Photography Pinterest Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3D Audio Posted December 23, 2000 Share Posted December 23, 2000 Bryce, Ken, Bartus, It's like old home week. It's nice seeing some of us together in the same thread. I just had a new client that I mixed an album for last week and he started off the mix session saying how nice it was to finally meet me and how he'd followed my posts since back in the SSS days. Made me feel sorta like an old-timer! Boy five years goes by fast. If you, or anyone, wants to read some of the hilarious threads from SSS, there are still several that are posted on my site. Including the digital fries thread and the Cyber-Spider thread, probably the most creative and wandering PC vs. Mac debate ever documented, along with the East African chinchilla raisin bran thread. They are at http://www.3daudioinc.com/3daudio_comedy.html. Guaranteed to bring back the gold old days.

Anderton Posted December 24, 2000 Share Posted December 24, 2000 I actually have all forum threads archived, and am just waiting for the day to release them on an unsuspecting public I'm so glad SSS is back. Interestingly, within the last two months, it has really regained that SSS community vibe. We now have some of our own "stars" - Lee Flier, Curve Dominant, Fletcher, Alphajerk, Tedster, Argomax - waaaaay too many to mention here, but suffice it to say SSS now has a posse. I think just as many, and probably more, people tune in to see what the posse is saying that what the "nominal head of the forum" has to say...and that's fine with me! I'm just the host of this crazy party.

earfatigue Posted December 24, 2000 Share Posted December 24, 2000 i remember a lot of really humurous threads from the aol-dark-ages. digital fries was definitely one of them. after all, if you can't look back at whatever-time-you-find-youself-with-enough-time-to-spout and make at least a little light of it you've lost the plot. a good sense of humour goes a long way. it just got me through a christmas party where i patiently listened to some idiot tell me that mp3 files sounded better than anything else out there. it's the future. i nodded and stared at my drink. but at least i didn't try to throttle him. side note: i'm not touching a cell phone or computer for the next two weeks. i will be on captiva island, fl. feeding seagulls and sifting sand through my toes. making slushie drinks with nothing more than frozen strawberries, 151, and a blender. and hoping to come back next year to fulfill my new years resolution. (make albums not commercials, and pay rent) merry whatever to whoever. peash. judson snell slang music group judson snell slang music group chicago, il Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBartus Posted December 24, 2000 Share Posted December 24, 2000 Dave Bryce wins the "Guess Who HARMONICS Was" contest! Congrats and look for your prize -- an ADAT Classic w/ a side of digital fries -- in the mail. It's good to see a lot of us still around, still making music and posting posts. SSS is alive and well -- this time, we've even got Fletcher! ------------------ John Bartus Radio Active Productions We Make Great Radio Happen - Guaranteed. 1-888-93-RADIO www.radioactivedigital.com John Bartus Music From The Fabulous Florida Keys www.johnbartus.com www.cdbaby.com/bartus www.radioactivedigital.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
