the ascii scene enough, and well, heres an interview with
ab #ascii pimp, martz..
Lets

Martz:
w00p
Dangermouse:
first question, who is the real MARTZ? the man behind the
mask?
Martz:
I'm a pimp, not related to #ascii. huh? what do you mean?
I don't wear a mask, my face is naturaly twisted ;)
Dangermouse:
What the hell is your real name and all that shit? jeeze,
got to give to ascii artists in black and white don't you
Martz:
ohh, well, my real name is Ohad, which is an israeli name,
and errr, I live in israel ;)
Dangermouse:

Martz:

Dangermouse:

Dangermouse:

Martz:

Dangermouse:
oh whatever
Martz:
wh0a
Dangermouse:
Have you by any chance removed two of your lower ribs?
Martz:
nope, I have all my body parts intact.
Dangermouse:
ahh, the reason i ask is, well, hmm.. its apparently easier
to blow yourself this way.. anyways, on with the questions..
How
did you get involved with the scene?
Martz:
dude, go on. hahahahaha
I can't
blow my self, I've been circumsized, my dick is cut in half
;)
Dangermouse:
YOU TOO! I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE! THERE ARE OTYHER
HELMETS! MY GOD
Martz:
Well, I was a local since 1992, drawing ascii, along wif
3 or 4 other artists. Then got my internet account, in about
1995/1996, and got on the net.
Dangermouse:
ahh
Ok,
I was looking for a more comprehensive overview there, but
since your an ascii artist, i guess I'll have to make allowances..
Martz:
hahahahahaha
Dangermouse:
Lemme put it another way, who got you involved, what were
your first groups, and more importantly, what do you remember
of those days?
Dangermouse:

Dangermouse:
Lemme put it another way, who got you involved, what were
your first groups, and more importantly, what do you remember
of those days?
Martz:
Ohh, haha, well, when i got involved in the world scene,
we all had passion to draw, we loved to draw, being the
best didn't matter as it matters now.
my
first group was grill, a group ran by kaz and myself. we
had many new artists in it, and a couple of old ones.
I loved
those days, all my friends from the local scene were there
wif me, and we tried to make an impact on the ascii scene.
Dangermouse:
Well, that was the thing, everyone wanted to make an impact,
start a group, and i dunno, 'be somebody'?
Martz:
yeah, that was it, except we did make an impact. in those
days, we were group #3, after remorse and noname. We had
artists like absent spinsister, meatpod, mso, and so artists
who made the scene what it is afterwards. People applied
like madmen ;)
Dangermouse:
What have been your lastest groups/efforts?
Martz:
My last group? or all the groups i've ever been in?
Dangermouse:
Yeah, your last few, or any u haven't mentioned..
Martz:
heh, well since grill, we were running good, then mjay quit
noname and started simple!ascii. I joined, and we went on
another month. then this guy called Sargon popped up, and
offered us to merge Grill, Simple, Polyester and his group
(later we learned that there was no group) called Intrepid.
...and
so, these groups merged into what you know as serial!ascii.
then
we had some internal problems, and me and mjay split serial,
and formed aphro!ascii wif d2mac&roman
Dangermouse:
Forgive me for my ascii ignorance, is serial!ascii still
alive?
Martz:
nope, heh, serial is dead ;)
aphro!ascii
was the most contriversial ascii group of all times. everybody
hated it.
Dangermouse:
why?
So one day i went to a school trip, and when I came back,
aphro was dead ;)
well,
we pissed off everyone, and sargon and meatpod, the remaining
leaders of serial, kept dissing us. There was a real war
going on ;)
Dangermouse:
Did meatpod give the ever present finger?
Martz:
yes, countless times ;)
so
anywayz, aphro died, and I joined fuel, lead the ascii devision.
then I quit fuel, and joined the revived legendary basic,
which was the greatest group i've ever been in.
Dangermouse:
I mean, what was it about aphro that everyone hated tho?
Martz:
they hated our attitude.
a couple
of no-one's , saying everyone else sucks, and we own the
scene ;) and serial hated us coz we split and took 50% of
their members or so.
ok,
so i was in basic yeah? Then blindman and Mjay killed basic,
and I was lonely again ;)
Dangermouse:
Haha, yeha, you've forgotten haven't you, 'i don't belieeevvveee
it'..
my
dad put fertilizer on te gardens today, now the entire house
smells like shit
Martz:
no wait ;)
Dangermouse:
sooo? u aint forgotten..
Martz:
hahahahahaha
Dangermouse:
or u think im lying about the shit?
Martz:
It'll come back to me ;)
Dangermouse:
trust me, u should smell it, its like a fucking barnyard
here, its like theres this horse with its ass up to my window
Martz:
hahahahahahaha
Dangermouse:
with a cow at the other, farting the words to that stupid
farm song..
u there,
or has the putrid smell gotten to u?
Martz:
then 3 months passed, i was guesting in some groups i guess,
and then I decided it was time for another group. So I formed
Spies.
Spies
was a kickass group , I killed it after 3 packs because
i was sick of the scene, the scene didn't move, the scene
is degenerated.
Dangermouse:
yeah
Martz:
So off went spies, and Me and a couple of my best scene-related
friends formed a label, a non-ascii-related group called
Degeneration65
shuddup
;)
Dangermouse:
yeah
oh,
yeah ok..
Martz:
hahahahaha
Now
ask me: Tell us more about Degeneration65
Dangermouse:
Tell me more about Degeneration65.. (like what the hell
the 65 is for)?
Martz:
come on, ask
Dangermouse:

Martz:
hahahahahaha
Dangermouse:
what are you blind or some shit?
Martz:
hahahahaha

Dangermouse:

pron man :)
Martz:

* martz

Dangermouse:

is for)?
Tell
me more about Degeneration65.. (like what the hell the 65
is for)?
Tell
me more about Degeneration65.. (like what the hell the 65
is for)?
Tell
me more about Degeneration65.. (like what the hell the 65
is for)?
Martz:
ASK ME QUESTIONS! ASK ME QUESTIONS! bah, damn..
Dangermouse:
U asked for it, remember that
Martz:
Now ask me: Tell us more about Degeneration65
ok!
Degeneration65
was brought up to encourage some attitude into the scene.
We're here to bring attitude into the scene, we piss everyone
off, and we own them at everything ;)
Shout
outs to the Deg65 members- Gravedancer, Midnight Judge,
Kresile, Kaz, Spook, D2mac and myself.
65
represents nothing, absolutely nothing, but we love it anyways
;) PLUS, here's a big scoop for you. a degeneration65 homepage
will be up soon, and it rules bigtime.
Dangermouse:
umm, What do you think of the ascii scene today, or for
the matter, the state of the scene in general?
Martz:
well, the scene is fucked. there's no competition, and it's
full of losers.. Well, they're all just giving up on competition.
Dangermouse:
Just wondering, it seems to be a topical discussion at the
moment, like, 'how to save the scene'
Martz:
Everyone's into dissing remorse, and doing nothing else
besdies that, and the little groups are dead, there are
like 1 or 2 left.
There's
always been a nostalgic aspect of the scene, but now it's
really fucked.
Saturday
War - an ascii compo, held in #satwar, every saturday at
3pm , is one of the things I'm doing to revive it. Black
jack and me run it.
#satwar,
ever saturday, 3pm EST
Dangermouse:
yeah i've heard about that
well
anyways, i think we've covered enough.. any greets?
Martz:
Well, I wanna greet remorse, the group i'm in now, and all
the members.
Dangermouse:
im getting tired
Martz:
I wanna greet Degeneration65, my crew, rock on.
Dangermouse:
This has taken 1 hour and something, jeeze
Martz:
and I wanna greet Odelay and ruckus, and kwest. that's it
;)
Dangermouse:
cya l8r
Martz:
I'm gone
