for two issues of their diskmag Aggression, and for the infamous "Marianne
Myhrer Slideshow" incident ;]

the 21st of august. A text file was spread on Norwegian boards to announce
the fact the same day.
  1994 - The first issue of the diskmag "Aggression" was released in april,
and announced Skynet had changed his handle to Covenant. "Aggression #2"
was released in november, and would prove to be the second and FINAL
edition of the promising mag.
  1995 - Finnish member PetShopBoy changed his handle to The Hooligan
around february.

-------------------------
Camel Corporation was a Danish two-man crew formed by ICronite (Anders
Mikkelsen, code) and Milkshake (Kent S. Jensen, gfx) in february 1993,
after they left Anarchy. As far as I know, "Camel Lights 2112" [93] is the
only thing they ever released.

  Camel Lights 2112 (1993, .02?, ECS Multifile).

Carillon (1992-1993)
--------------------

Heatbeat was kicked from the finnish section of Rebels. After releasing two
demos in 1992, they merged with Cyberiad in the first months of 1993 to
create one of the best ever Finnish teams; Carillon and Cyberiad Institutes
(CNCD). At least Heatbeat (music), Destop (gfx), WDO (code) and Major Tom
(music, ex Anarchy) came along to the new group. Despite rumours, Golem (ex
Anarchy) never joined DCS, and this was likely the last group the Finnish
graphician was a member of. We believe coder and cofounder Dweezil went to
Stellar at the time of the group's death.


Casyopea (CYP)
--------------
???> Cooder (music), Dr.Sky (code), Greg (code swap), KK (raytrace, 06/96),
     Lordwader (mainswap), Smile (gfx, 11/94).

Celtic were originally a german group, who later took in some foreign
members. They were also behind the utility "Demo-Maker V1.1" in 1989,
possibly the first program of its kind on the amiga? ;)


Centolos (1994-1997)
--------------------
Centolos is a Spanish demo group, formed for fun in 1994 by various members
of other groups that had just died. In 1997 the group merged with Dosis to
create the group Centosis - and simultaneously moved the entire group to the
pc platform. They are well respected in the pc scene today, mainly due to
their role in organizing most parties held in Spain. Thanks to former member
Wavemaker (now in Trinity and Glue) for information!


Cerberos Design
---------------
Cerberos Design were apparently a hungarian-based demo group. Their coder
Fresh Trash made the quite popular packer utility CrunchMania.

Butcher, Dr. Jive, Grade, Grywood, Joe, Joplin, Morrison, Mr.Proper,
Powerbrain, Rain, Ruler, Shark, Smircher, Stargazer, Thundercat, Triton and
Zevs.

  An Announcement (1990, OCS Intro).
  code: Smircher, Grade (additional), gfx: Morrison (logo), Smircher (bobs),
  music: Grade. info: Mentions Brainstorm "Megademo" (released 21st of april
  this year), so definitely released after that. This was likely the group's
  first ever release.


Chronos
-------
Boards; LABYRINTH (swi, 12/91).

Chronos was an Italian-based, seemingly boardoriented group, with a strong
section in Switzerland as well.

Circle (1993-1993)
------------------
Circle was a swedish demo group formed in may of 1993 by Schizo (ex
Noxious), Colorbird, Some1 and Prime (all ex Scoopex). The lifespan of
Circle was short, however, as both Colorbird and Schizo later in the year
moved on - first to join Alcatraz, then to form Illusion. Most members of
Circle later wound up in Illusion, and then eventually Razor 1911. Among the
ones that moved on to Illusion were at least Lionheart (ex Insane), Some1
and Prime (both ex Scoopex). As a consequence, Circle died.
  Information in Balance's "Upstream #7" [11/93] that Some1 and Prime joined
from Artech seem to be false.


Cirion
------
Cirion was a finnish demo group.


Citron [hol] (1993-)
--------------------
Citron was formed in late 1993 by dutch sysop THC/Justice (MYSTIC PLACE),
but the group didn't exist long before THC moved on to legend, presumably
killing the group in the process. This group has nothing to do with the
Swedish group Citron. (Citron-point).


Citron. [swe] (1993-)
---------------------
Citron. (note the point at the end) is a Swedish demo group, formed by
S.Duvan and Electron in early 1993. In 1994, Slash joined as a double member

when they went quiet again. They released cooperation crack(s?) with Quartex
in february of 1996.

C-Lous was born in 1993 and grew from a small, local swedish demo group to
one of international proportions, and featuring some of the scene's most
prominent coders at the time. The group released their first demo in july of
1993.


CNCD (1993-, http://www.cncd.fi)
--------------------------------
CNCD resulted as a merger of the two groups Carillon and Cyberiad; CNCD is
an acronym of Carillon And Cyberiad Institues. Some of the above, like
Juliet and Destop, are active cross-platform. Probably their most famous
member must be the now-inactive Heatbeat, one of the greatest musicians to
ever grace the Amiga platform.


Coma (CMA, 1990-1992)
---------------------
GER> Amok (org, 08/91), Control (07/91), Mad Butcher (code, 08/91).

The Company was a cracking group formed in early 1991 (first crack release
in april) by Foxy and another person, who took joint leadership of the
group who at first had around 12 members. In text published years later on
a webpage (http://members.fortunecity.com/lresort/history.htm), the former
leader accused Quartex members of selling him out, causing massive police
action and causing the death of the group in 1992. They were in cracking
cooperation with Vision Factory in the early months of 1992. A _LOT_ of the
same boards and members appear to have resurfaced in the shortlived group
Atlantis around february-march 1992, possibly as a result of the group's
death? Any information on this welcome.
  1991 - Germans suppliers and EHQ sysops Selim and Rudi (THE JAM) took

H2o from ArtCore, who quickly also recruited Stylez and Rapid from the same
group. The boards SPIRIT OF SOUL (Mario) and HOMELESS (Slime) were also
recruited immediately, without the sysops being members. Two more artists
arrived for the group in september; Mess and Treach.

production was the 64k intro "Error" [08/96] at the Intel Outside 3 party.
This Control has nothing to do with the same-named danish group, acive a
couple of years earlier.


Coral
-----
Coral was a Finnish demo group, which didn't release much on the amiga.
There was also a pc division later.


Corpse [fra] (1991-1995)
------------------------
There were two groups called Corpse, the second one coming into existence
while this incarnation was still around...


Corpse [swe] (CRP, 1994-)
-------------------------
Corpse was a swedish demo group, ormed by four ex members of X-Trade;
Payday, Klorathy, TBM and Coolorado. It is very possible that TBM was later
in The Black Lotus. There were two groups called Corpse existing
simultaneously, though the French ones were the first to use the name.


Corrupt (COR)
-------------
???> Wildthing (doorcode, 05/96).

Corrupt was a boardorientet group, releasing doors at least in 1996.


Countach (CNT, 1990-)
---------------------
Countach is the name of the cooperation between Aeon and Spirit. The name
was assumed in october of 1990, and the group at that time had 22 members.
They later disbanded when all members helped form the new group Vogue.


Cracker Journal Team
--------------------
CJT is the team dedicated to the release of the legendary 'Crack Journal'
diskmag. After issue #27, internal unrest in the group Alpha Flight
prompted main editor Doctor Mabuse to take the mag and leave, so that it
would not be dependent on any one group. The first independent issue,
#28, was released in may of 1992.

  Cracker Journal #28 (1992, .05, ECS Multifile Diskmag).
  code: n/a, gfx: Quasar (main), Design (coop title), Renegade
  (endpic, comic), music: LooneStar, editors: Doctor Mabuse/Alpha
  Flight, FDT/Venture and Design.
  review: The mag opens with a small intro, just containing the text
  CRACKER JOURNAL, over which #28 comes crashing down. Then the mag
  proper appears, with a good robot picture by D-Sign appearing as the
  first thing you see. One thing you instantly notice about CJ is the
  way the mag occupies almost the entire screen; no big, impressive
  panels here!
    CJ originated in the illegal part of the scene, and is still heavily
  linked to this part of the scene. This means that your interest in
  reading CJ will always be in direct proportion with your interest in
  that part of the scene. Editorially, this is not a very strong mag
  either. There is a lot of articles that are just text files from the
  boards, the English is downright dreadful in places, and one of the
  articles is nothing but a perverse porno story! This was the middle of
  1992, mind you, and people instantly looked to magazines like R.A.W that
  were intelligible rather than the badly designed articles of CJ. Issue 28
  was the first issue to be released 'indendent', after the mag was
  liberated from its original home in Alpha Flight. Compatibility is another
  sore point, with the mag responding very badly to keypresses on my A1200 -
  even after kicking down to 1.3. It can work fine for a while, then
  suddenly decide to die. No points for guessing this made reviewing a minor
  nightmare. [glenn]
 GLE tested A1200/030-50/2mb chip, 16mb fast/3.0.


Crack Inc. (1992-1992)
----------------------
Crack Inc was formed in early 1992 by the old european members of Skid Row
(SSR), and was soon reinforced with some other ex-Skid Row'ers from other
groups. When they died at the end of the year, most members formed Ministry
with former members of Nemesis and TKK. News that Selim and Subzero left
the scene seem to be strongly exaggerated, since they were both later
members of Ministry.
  There were rumours and even news that SSR (Subzero Selim Rudi) joined
from Bitstoppers, but it's most likely that this is untrue, and that they
were the original founders, coming directly from Skid Row. Their demo
subgroup Kaos Design died [see separate entry].


Cranks
------
Cranks is a polish demo group.


Crass
-----
Crass was an australian demo group.

only a minimum of information, are "Remindtro" (intro), "Supersonic" (aga
intro), "Division by Zero" (aga demo), "Abrakadabra" (intro), "Toothpaste"
(aga intro), "Chip 4 You #1" (aga intro), "Phunky" (aga demo), "Kaso Cows"

  code: n/a, gfx: Odie, music: Mr.Real.

  Twisted Colours (1996, autumn, AGA HD Slideshow).
  code: Zik, gfx: Odie, music: Antichrist.
  review: And this time a slideshow without monsters, naked girls or
  spaceships in erotic positions ;). Craze surprised us with a short
  collection of ten abstract pictures by Odie.
    You can see persons in some strange bearings, chinese men, ghosts,
  wierd looking ladies and laughing trees. All in all a very colorful and
  not boring thing with a listenable music and another good new font,
  although one-colored. Between the pictures you can read funny comments to
  the picture that follows, but it's sad that there is not a single real
  picture!! Only big clips and fullscreen bodies! Also you have no selector
  to enjoy some Odicasso's again. And there are a few which were worth to
  be  watched twice like my favorites: The second one (what eye(s)!) and
  the one before the last one (the laughing tree). At last it is a tiny
  piece of art and 900kb are not much space on 8-Gig HD for this art...
  This slideshow was not a party release. [zito]

Crionics (1989?-1992)
---------------------
DEN> Blazer (music, 06/90), Gizwiz (code, ex  Kefrens, new 06/90), Grumble
     (code, 06/90), Madonna Freak (gfx, 06-09/90), Merlin (gfx music, ex
     Trilogy, new 06/90), Saxs (Michael Persson, code, 06-09/90), S.L.L
     (music, 06-09/90), Tronic (music, 08-09/90), Zycho (gfx, 06-12/90).

Crionics was a danish demo group. Deftronic released some version of his
assembler "Trash'M One" under the Crionics label in 1990-91.
  1990 - Gizwiz (code), Merlin (gfx music) and Murphy (code) all joined from
Kefrens in june.
  1991 - The group WON the demo competition at The Party 91 in december with
the amazing "Hardwired" [12/91], made in cooperation with The Silents.
  1992 - Danish musician T.U.S.C. (12/90-) joined Vixen early this year.
Crionics then died in early to mid 1992. The three danish coders The Spy
(code, 06/90-), Murphy (code, ex Kefrens, new 06/90-) and Deftronic (code,
06/90-) left to join The Silents on a full time basis. Video swapper Marcel
was caught by the Police just before december.

  Megademo (1990, 19.02, ECS Megademo).
  Released at the Kefrens and Dexion Party.
  info: NOT THE SAME AS THE ONE BELOW! It seems highly likely, actually,
  that Crionics released two demos with the same name! :)

  Megademo (1990, 29.06, ECS Megademo).
  LOA - code: Murphy, Gfx: Zycho (logo), Deftronic (font), music: "Raven"
        by Blazer.
  NOI - code: Deftronic, The Spy, gfx: Merlin, music: S.L.L.
  PIG - code: Grumble, Saxs, gfx: Madonna Freak, music: S.L.L.
  MAD - code: Saxs, gfx: Madonna Freak, music: S.L.L.
  2nd in Amiga Conference 90 demo competition.
  review: After booting this disk you're faced with a selector for three
  different demo parts. The selector is pretty basic, with a logo at the
  top and a text writer in the middle of the screen. In the background you
  can see some vector objects, which btw are pretty fast on my 030-50 :)
  For the credits above, please refer to these codes:
  LOA means loader, in other words the selector itself. This (and only
      this) part works fine even with caches on.
  NOI means Noia demo. This is probably the best and biggest part, with
      lots of advanced (for its time) vector effects and a good sense of
      pace and entertainment. Please note that the fill routine bugs in
      some parts.
  PIG means Pigs in Space. This part consists of just a drawn 'space'
      background over which we get to see a filled vector scroller.
      The same fill bug appears here also, albeit to a lesser extent.
  MAD means The Madonna Endpart. This part excels with its superbly drawn
      cartoon renditions of Madonna walking through the city. Rather cool!
  Overall, it's a good production, this, though it seems like it was put
  together in quite a rush! It's like they got these three demoparts, and
  just stuck a loader at the beginning, and hey presto we've got a demo!
  Not bad at all, really. The music by S.L.L lifts it a lot. [glenn]
