Those were the times :) I remember Sodan releasing his borderscroll back then. I guess 1001 released their demo first. 1001 was always held in the highest regard by us scandinavians :)

Indeed, that’s me! Were you active in the demo scene too?

Yes, on C64 I've been with Beastie Boys, X-Rated and again with Remember later on.

Now working on a contribution to the Amiga competition for Revision 2023.

ESCOS blew my mind back then.

1001 Crew sparked the whole C64 demoscene, IMO.

I stand in awe.

Same here. I will never forget my "first contact" with it. I saw ESCOS at a friend's house (Brandis/Success). At first I thought he manipulated the monitor, which was able to zoom in so that it shows only the text/graphics area. :D

Indeed the most insane effects were always created by the dutch :)
