Demo Party - information about the upcoming party PHAT'0.

the second cuming
was PHAT9 succesful? yes, if you are asking me. it was very
small scale party though. PHAT0 will be a bit larger, still
keeping the cosy and intimate atmosphere. it is supposed to be
meeting of Phantasy and Dual Crew Shining members, but it is
also open party for everybody willing to experience something 
... different? eh, cliche! just if you like something most 
people tend to call weird experience, be there! for us, it is 
just another sign of fact that there's an essence of life, 
equal for everybody still being different.


tell me where

maybe it will be stylish. but it will surely be fun. the parties
of PHAT series boast very carefully selected partyplaces. we
don't throw party where we can, we hold them where we want, be
it legal or illegal. this time it's very simple choice - party
will happen nearby place main organizer Raver is living at. the
country is Latvia, the city is Liepaja and the area is Karosta.
oh? Latvia is one of Baltic states, which was occupied by USSR
for an half century, revolution happening exactly ten years ago
returned our independence leaving traces of the happy days of
communism. Karosta was soviet military town where officers were
living, with port nearby where nuclear submarines were hanging
around and with loads of secret bases and bunkers in the forest.
party will happen there everywhere as well as crazy games right
under the blue sky and right under the ground in the tunnels
too, so lets call it underground!


tell me when
eh later. august or september. if you need to know date as soon
as possible, mail us and tell when it is good time for you to
come and that will also help us calculating the exact date.



action
aha. PHAT parties are having compos too. officially for 8 bit
machines though. speccy, c64, atari8, cpc, gbc but stuff on
anything else we can call a computer is welcome. categories:
demo, music, gfx and 1kb intro. no rules, you know what you
shouldnt do already. just lake previous year, you can send your
entries to us and take part without being presented at the party
personally. give us your stuff to judge!
more, it's a party. we will have warez kiosk here where you will
be able to buy very special stuff or just exchange it for yours.
live bands and dead djs playing anything from punk and
hardcore to techno and drum'n'bass, maybe even some big-name
guys will be present, yet we will keep it small and cosy, don't
worry about crowd of progressive youth. we will also have
various interesting and scenish games around the area, having
excursions to the city center and beach nearby, various
real-time projects going on during the party, like making a
movie and perhaps some more.


comfort and big bucks
it's all for free - partying and sleeping place. food will cost
something, but it will be delivered at very cheap prices and it
will be good and warm! you will be surprised by latvian prices
anyway. donations are welcome though - be it money or hardware,
so we will have some prizes then and if lucky enough, cover some
party organizing costs.


finally
just come, it's isn't that far away, it's not so expensive and
it's worth to check a new places from time to time. stop moaning
how shitty the parties are, just support good ones! and ... the
things mentioned above are not 100% guaranteed. there might be
changes - something might be cancelled and something added, but
be sure, we won't disapoint you by having a boring party!
