GREETINGS ONE AND ALL, I'M JUDGE DROKK AND I JOIN YOU IN TEXTUAL FORM TODAY FOR BOTH CELEBRATORY AND PROMOTIONAL REASONS.  IF YOU HAVEN'T YET SEEN THE AMIGA PARTY CULTURE SERIES IN ZZAP! AMIGA MAGAZINE, THEN I CAN THINK OF NO BETTER TIME THAN TO DIVE IN AND CATCH UP WITH WHAT, AS FAR AS I KNOW, IS THE ONLY SERIES OF IT'S KIND.  A MULTI-EPISODE INVESTIGATION AND CELEBRATION OF ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR ASPECTS OF THE AMIGA, OR INDEED ANY DEMOSCENE, THE PARTY.  OVER THE LAST 2 YEARS, ISSUE BY ISSUE WE'VE TAKEN YOU ON A JOURNEY OF DISCOVERY AND ENLIGHTENMENT, ENTERTAINING READERS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER YOU'RE A BURNED OUT SCENER WHO HAS SEEN IT ALL, OR SOMEONE ON THE OUTSIDE LOOKING IN.  ISSUE BY ISSUE BREAKING DOWN THE WALLS AND EXPLORING PARTY CULTURE FROM THE INSIDE OUT.  STARTING IN THE UK, BY CELEBRATING THE 30TH ANNIVERSARY OF OUR (ANARCHY'S) OWN PARTY IN 1992, BEFORE EXPLORING THE BIG WIDE WORLD OF THE PARTY SCENE.  INVESTIGATING THE RIVALRIES, THE DANGEROUS WORLD OF PIRACY, AND LOOKING AT HOW AND WHY SOME OF THE BIGGEST AMIGA DEMOS EVER ALWAYS RELEASED AT PARTIES.  IT WAS A GREAT PLEASURE TO GO BACK IN TIME AND HOOK UP AGAIN WITH SOME GREAT FRIENDS FROM THE PAST, MANY I HAVEN'T SPOKEN WITH SINCE LEAVING THE SCENE IN 1993.  SCENE FRIENDS SUCH AS MOTION OF ARTSTATE, MOLE, KREATOR, TRIX OF ANARCHY (WHO WAS CO-FOUNDER AND ORGANISER OF THE PARTY 1 AND 2 BY CRYSTAL SILENTS ANARCHY, IN 1991 AND 1992).  PLUS OTHER WONDERFUL CONTRIBUTORS SUCH AS MUSICIAN'S MATT FURNISS (CHRONOS) AND BARRY LIETCH, PLUS MICK DAGGER, NO.5 OF DIGITAL, COSY, ROMEO KNIGHT, GALAHAD, BACCHUS OF FAIRLIGHT, SPOONWIZARD (ECHO) OF LSD, PHOTON OF SCOOPEX, ANDREW BARNABUS (NIGHTSHADE OF CRUSADERS), PRIDE OF BRAINSTORM/LEMON., SPOTTER OF TRSI (RIP), MARK KNIGHT (TDK), TEO OF REBELS, NEIL THOMAS OF RMC RETRO AND STYX - WHO'S ONE OF THE ORGANISERS OF PROBABLY THE WORLDS LARGEST PURE SCENE DEMO PARTIES.  GREETINGS AND GRATITUDE TO EACH AND EVERYONE MENTIONED, NOT FORGETTING OF COURSE ZZAP AMIGA'S EDITOR MARK MCRAE, WHO SLAVES AWAY EACH ISSUE, TURNING WORDS AND PICTURES INTO ATTRACTIVE CONSUMER FRIENDLY PAGES FIT FOR PUBLIC CONSUMPTION.  THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE CAN BE SAID OF FULCO KOOP (AKA MAGIC OF NAH-KOLOR (OR IS IT NAG, NAG, NAG-KOLOUR?) WHO WAS A PAIN IN THE ASS FROM START TO FINISH. WORKING WITH HIM ON A MINISCULE CONTRIBUTION TO THE SERIES WAS LIKE HAVING TOOTHACHE AND SIMULTANEOUSLY HAVING NAILS KNOCKED INTO YOUR SKULL.  IF I WAS 30 YEARS YOUNGER I WOULD ELABORATE FURTHER, BUT I'M FAR MORE MATURE TO WASTE TIME ON SUCH UNPLEASANTRIES THESE DAYS.  INSTEAD, LET'S CELEBRATE WHAT HAS BEEN, AS A DEMO PARTY ORGANISER MYSELF BACK IN 1992, A DREAM PROJECT.  I THANK CHRIS WILKINS OF FUSION RETRO BOOKS ALSO, FOR ASKING ME TO CREATE WORK FOR (AT THE TIME UNANNOUNCED) ZZAP! AMIGA MAGAZINE.  I'M NOT SURE HE WAS EXPECTING SO MUCH INPUT AS HE ACTUALLY GOT - THREE REGULAR FEATURES FOR THE MAGAZINE AND A SPECIAL FOR THE ANNUAL - WITH DEMOSCENE LEGENDS AND CONFESSIONS OF AN AMIGA SCENER, EVERY ONE A PLEASURE TO CREATE AND COLLABORATE WITH SOME GREAT PEOPLE.  ALL GOOD THINGS MUST COME TO AN END THOUGH, AND AS I WRITE THIS WE HAVE ALMOST REACHED THE FINAL EVER EPISODES OF 'AMIGA PARTY CULTURE', WHICH WILL BE A CELEBRATION OF THE EARLIEST AND ALSO BEST-EVER PARTY MEMORIES FROM THOSE THAT WERE THERE, THE HISTORY MAKERS.  NOW THE CREDITS.....  JUDGE DROKK FOR A.I. GRAPHICS AND TEXT.  MOTION OF ARTSTATE FOR CODE, A.I. GRAPHICS EDITING AND THIS FONT.  THIS LOVELY MUSIC BY THE VERY GIFTED 4-MAT. UNTIL NEXT TIME..... JUDGE DROKK.                  .....WRAP!
