Bit of a long shot, would anyone on here know how to get in touch with anyone from the Finnish demoscene group Future Crew, in particular Psi (Sami Tammilehto)? Are any on them on fedi? They must be in their 50's now.
I'd like to ask if he still has the Scream Tracker 3 source code, and if he would consider releasing it... It's such an important part of computing and music history. It deserves preservation.
Update: hearsay is that Psi is not interested in releasing the sources. See replies.

I have no idea when I actually produced “First Techno Attempt” as the date on the file says December 2nd 1997, which is wrong as by then I had produced a lot of songs that I would have considered to be “techno”.
I believe I mostly completed this late in 1995 and only added the choir intro in 1996, which explains signing the song as PoC, because while I created this song originally, I still went by the handle “PCi”.
To best fit with the chronology and development of my music abilities, I therefore date “First Techno Attempt” to November 28th 1995.
Regarding the song’s title, please don’t mind that the song isn’t in the “techno” genre by any stretch of the imagination. To me and most of my friends back in the mid 1990’s, “techno” was just a synonym for “electronic music”.
I remember being quite happy about this song back when I produced it, and I quite like it to this day as well.

This unconventional 3-channel chiptune was created with Scream Tracker 3 in February 1996. Shared and published, not for pride, but for brevity.

In this happy S3M produced in late January 1996, I used more chip-sounding samples again. Combined with the limit of 3 channels (just like on the C64), and sizing in at less than 9 kB, I think "Stop The Violence!" properly qualifies as a chip-tune.
