Video: In memory of Fred Fish
At the title link a friend of the family Fish has put up a 15 minute memorial-video that does an interesting panning across fred's life.

It is an embedded Flash objekt that most likely is not viewable on all platforms. Therefore the BTTR team tries to obtain and provide the original video in an alternatove format at back2roots.org. (snx) (Translation: ub)

Back to the Roots V2.41 - Patch Level 3

Fred Fish's final trip

Today, Saturday, December 1, 2007 the family and close friends of Fred Fish will meet in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, to give Fred a last "farewell". At 12:00 noon PST (20:00 GMT) Fred's wife Michelle will spread Fred's ashes in the one place he really loved, the sea. If you have a minute, and you liked his work, send him a farewell too - Ashes to ashes, Fish to fish.

Fred Fish Memorial Archive

Since our last update we received quite some missing material, like Fresh Fish Vol.1 (Rev.1), Fresh Fish Vol.2 and Gold Fish Vol.3 (single CD version), but we still search missing CDs. We also received a license from Marty Flickinger who compiled the "Fish'n'More" for Xetec Inc. CDs to put them online. Thanks Marty! We start with Fish'n'More Vol.3, and still search for people who own Vol.1 and Vol.2, plus cover scans of Vol.3.

Atari CD-ROM archive

Due to the enormous output from the Atari scene we have started another little side project listing Atari related material we have online here. Since a while we host two CD series from Lotek Style aka MC Laser of TSCC, the Atari mods and music collection "Fading Twilight" which we just added 4 new CDs, and the demo and scene material collection "No Fragments" which even got extended by 6 further CDs. Thanks Lotek Style!

Spanish Scene Collections

Another scene with an enourmous output these days is the spanish scene, so we dedicated it another side project. Besides updating our mirror of the modulez.org spanish mod scene ftp, we also added the third CD of the spanish modules compilations Modplanet now. Finally we added the Spanish Scene compilations by Dargo^LLFB spanning 5CD and te first Avalon CD by Vago^Avalon Software, all with spanish scene output. Big thanks go to Fermix^LLFB for this huge upload!

Initial Music

This in a nice new hosted project by the danish scene musician The Boss^6th Dimension, which is also planned and prepared since years. Here you can download game music from early Amiga games covered by our licenses, transcoded to the MP3 format. This is also a good example how a hosted site can benefit of this place and its licenses. So far BTTR had no boss, only team members. Now we have one - The Boss of 6th Dimension. ;-) (snx)
