41992

4The names

--------------------------------------

'92  was  definitely  the  year of new
talents.   First,  let's take a look a
the groups of 1992:

The  most  important  teams were 2Melon
Dezign, Andromeda, Anarchy, Spaceballs
and   Kefrens1.    3   out   of  5  are
newcomers,  or  at  least  famous  for
their productions in '92.

3Melon  Dezign:1   They  invented  a new
demonstration  style,  which the scene
loved.       The      style's     main
2charasteristics 1  are   humour,  crazy
music   and   design,  with  cool  new
effects.    The  team  consists  of 2 8
people,1  and  they all were productive
(no   swappers).    They   released  2
trackmos   and  lots  of  little  well
designed intros.

3Andromeda:1   This is an pure norwegian
team  with 218 members.1  1992 was their
premiere  year, but they are undoubtly
in  the leading bunch.  They created a
very  cool  2image1  for  the group.  In
lots   of   people's   opinion   their
productions have the 2best design1 (just
take  Mirror).   They  released D.O.S.
on  The  Gathering which is their best
demo  yet.   They've  done a file demo
called 3Mindriot1 already in '93.
3Anarchy:1   This legendary group is the
2only  BIG  group1  which  could keep up
with  the  time.   For example Silents
and  Phenomena  both were inactive all
year,  but  Anarchy  released a lot of
quality  productions, but nothing that
would take your breathe away.  Anyway,
with  their  star  members, they could
keep up and 2stay on the top.1  But they
have to share the top now with the new
teams...

3There have been many changes in (A)!
2Check the news and article about them!1

3Spaceballs:1    It  started  out  as  a
little   funny   norwegian  team,  but
nowadays  they are on the right way to
the  #1  position.  2Wayfarer and State
of  the  Art1  both won on a party demo
compo.  Namely on The 3Gathering1 and on
3The  Party'92,1  the  2 best parties in
'92!   With  SOTA, they created a very
2new  type1  of demonstrations.  Th code
is  not  a big deal, but it's the 2most
original1 demo of the year.

3Kefrens:1   The forces of the pyramids.
They  were attacked by lodsa people on
the  scene,  but most of these attacks
were  the  2proofs  of  jelauosy1.   The
sequel  of  Guardian  Dragon  was  the
2biggest hit 1of the summer.

And  now  let's  see  who  were in the

4spotlight

         of the scene in '92.

3Coders:1   Altough  2The  Spy1  was quite
inactive,  he 3kept his #1 position1 all
year.   But  I think the 2coders of '921
were:    Chaos/Sanity,    Mr.Hyde    &
Dr.Jekyll/Andromeda,   Lone  Starr  of
Spaceballs,   Performer/Melon  Dezign.
This  year  the words behind the demos
were 2Design1 and 2Originality1 instead of
the  boring  World  Record  and  these
coders  2(espec.   Dr.J&Mr.H)1 showed us
what   these  words  mean.   Chaos  is
accused of bad design, but if he could
manage  to improve he would absolutely
2numero uno.1

3Graphicians:1   1992 was a 2year of gfx.1
Nowadays  no  demo can survive without
cool  pictures,  the  same  goes  with
diskmags.   And fortunately, the scene
has a lot of talented dudes like 2Facet1
of  Anarchy,  2Peachy1/TRSI,  2Fairfax1 of
Andromeda,  2Hof1 of The Silents, 2RWO1 of
Kefrens,  2Danny1  of Anarchy or 2Mack1 of
Melon  Dezign.   My problem with their
pictures  is  their  subject.  Why can
only some dudes draw other things than
dragons,  Vallejo  pictures?   Give  a
little more 2fantasy1 to your pictures!

3Musicians:1    They   are  starting  to
realize  that  the old 2computer sounds1
are out of time.  Each famous musician
has a very own style, own samples, and
that  is very cool.  These people were
the musicians of '92:  2Audiomonster1 of
Melon  Dezign, 2Nuke1 of Anarchy, 2SLL1 of
Kefrens,  2Jesper  Kyd1  of The Silents,
2Moby1 of Dreamdealers.
