Yeah, Virtual Escape music is really fine, its just not like Amiga demo music. Though i think its time for more proper chip music in amiga demos! |

The Union Demo for sure
Lots of cool little demos in there - parallex scrolling, software sprites, etc A few of the tunes are really catchy - especially the "Disk copier" demo/part of it. For fun, load with both 512KB and 1MB of RAM to hear the different tune for the first "Door" (I forget the name of the demo). 1MB = digital audio, 512KB = chip tunes. |

It was indeed what we tried to do back then. We were watching a lot of Amiga demos on my A500 and we said something like "Let's make an Amiga demo on a stock 512k Atari ST", minus the sound. I have had something even more Amigaish on my mind those past months but my new job is making it hard to get enough spare time for it. It's hard to get rid of that old 68000 code addiction though, so who knows... Last edited by Keops/Equinox; 25 November 2021 at 01:36. |

As both an Amiga and ST fan (both sound chips!) the first tune sounds ACE! What production is it from? I need to go through the painful process of splitting an MSA image into 2, copying onto my Amiga (via PCMCIA network card), then copying onto a PC formatted disk (one half at a time) then loading up MSA writer on the ST to create the disk! ...then listen to it on the actual hardware |

I always thought The CareBears were the best for demos that pushed the technical limits of the hardware, especially up to the 90's. So I'd definitely rate The Cuddly Demos as one of the very best.
As for presentation, The Lost Boys always seemed to have that licked. Perhaps not as technically challenging as the work of TCB, but they always knew how to make a demo disk the very best experience they could. Check out Ooh Crikey Wot A Scorcher for (IMO) their best work. |
