Title: Vacum = Matrix
Post by: Asle on September 29, 2010, 16:38:31
Hey,

 While ripping the musics off the MS-DOS game "Inner Worlds", I've found out that Vacum (swe) (http://amp.dascene.net/detail.php?view=7937) is in fact Daniel Hansson, registered here as "Matrix".
 The credits in the game are very clear, so there's no question about Vacum's real name being "Daniel Hansson". Inside the 3 musics composed by him in this game, he clearly describes his membership to Nordic Beat (http://amp.dascene.net/newresult.php?request=groupid&search=3131). Hence my assumption of Vacum being Matrix, being Daniel Hansson.

 Anyone could confirm this, please, as it would thus set Vacum as R.I.P. also :(.

 I'll upload the musics in Vacum directory for the time being, until more detail come up (if needed).

In fact, here are the credit extracted from the game :

plus $1000 for the first place winner.

People from all over the planet sent in their
songs and we thank them all for doing so.

Funny, cos in Dunk-fix.mod he greets Matrix of Nordic Beat, but that wouldnt be the first time I'd seen someone greet his previous nickname.

Cant remember which mod it is, but contact details mention Johan for voice, whether thats him or someone else, who knows.

Dont have any mods for Matrix apart from a Matrix/Sanction xm tune, so not aware of him.

GL with the search!

Checking the three "Inner Worlds" modules you will find that two of them reference Matrix and the real name Daniel Hansson while the third just lists the alias Vacum alone, but all three modules share the same email address info. Based on this information and the game credits posted by Asle above it appears very likely that Vacum and Matrix indeed are the same person.

Hi Pal,

I do agree with your assumptions. I'll correct info on AMP according that we all agree vacum was his later handle.  :)
