Searching for another module (though not part of an obscure 80s demo this time!)

I'm almost (but not quite) certain that this was by Dr Awesome. Or at least, it was on a disk with some of his stuff on it. It *might* have been a 17bit disk, but I've failed to find it if so.

The song in question blew me away when I first heard it, I only heard it once at the back of a computer shop, and have not heard it since.

It featured a "Live crowd" sound, the generic cheering of hundreds of people at a concert. The song started either with a guitar or bass drum - probably the latter as there was also the sound of many hands clapping to the rhythm.

That's all I recall. It sounded very much like a rock concert, and was quite impressive.

The disk was presented as an 80s "hi-fi stacking system" image.

Anyone have the faintest idea what I'm talking about? I tried searching for Dr Awesome tunes, but he's been rather prolific to say the least :-)

There's loads of demo disks available for download at Oldskool UK, it might be worth asking Dazzaboy on OS-UK as he specialises in the Miggy demo archives.
