Who else used to play demos more than they did play games!
Me too. My hook was the Angels crack intro to Lost Patrol and the one by Skid Row to Lemings with the 4mat tune. Then came Hardwired and I was "in" ... seemingly forever since our group in 2019 celebrated its 20th anniversary at Revision easter party with a contribution in an historically Amiga demo competition.
Me too, this one is a legend. I almost managed to secure the source code for it at one point, though chances are that the guy claiming he had the source code just wanted to seem important. He did seem to have certain connections though, and he did work at a major computer shop as well at the time, so who knows. History shows ultimately no source code though...
That´s why some Demos got better graphics & musics than the games got...
@@Halligen1972 YEAH, U`r so right!!! This is the best 80`s HomeCompi DEMO. This disk is still mine and my Amiga is still running, clear & fast as ever... (Lotus sounds also great, 2nd place)
I basically learned how to compose through analysing ripped mods inside sound trackers and discovering how they were created.
"The music in the vectorballs part just blows my mind"
Today I learnt that the TCC in TCC Design stands for The Clumsy Creepers. Only taken me nigh on 35 years to find that out 🤣
Thx, fun!😂❤
Thank you for this info - after 35 years ^^
The music of this demo impressed me deeply. Up to this point I heard only chip music out of computers and this was totally different.
Just tooooo huge to even comment on. This was a total life changer and career changer for me. I trained to be a pilot and then got a record deal instead. I wrote all of my early Rabbit City releases on the Amiga 500, all because of this..... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE!" I was totally blown away when I saw it for the first time way back in September 1989. Was just amazed! Then came 13:20 and I just fell apart! :) :) :) Anyway, I still hold it as one of the best megademos ever made regardless of platform. Hard2Rock and Wasteland are just a cut above everything - love them both! 1989 was such an exciting year with so many quality releases and so much creativity.
Red Sectore Mega Demo..One of the best in my memory.
I also remember the crack intro of Ackerlight and the Wildcooper demo.
Wild copper was great! It was also the first demo I ever saw to feature a hidden part that you would get only when you press the three magic reset keys. I was even surprised it was possible.
Red Sector made available a Demo Maker. It only worked with an A500 if you upgraded the RAM to 1 Megabyte. .
I found a computer shop in Leeds that stocked the chips. I think I spent a full weeks wage on it back in the mid to late 80s !!!
I used to spend hours playing around with it. Misspent youth and still don’t regret it 👍
Yeah, RAM was incredibly expensive back then. And floppy disks weren't cheap either.
Yes i remember the Demo Maker.. lot's of scroll text and a 3d juggler 😂
Never ever saw something like that!
It's brilliant and never ever gets out of my head!
My heroes!
Thx for ever!
Amiga forever! Thx Commodore!
Thx Red Secotor!
Total classic takes me back to the good old days of Amiga 500.
Brings back memories of my old /x BBS the TigersClaw, hot warez cool couriers and sysops.. great times and great people... some things dont quite change for the better
Cement City UK :)
Amiga and ST demo scene was a great time. Glad I was around to experience it.
Sigh... the Commodore era. IMO the best computer scene ever (both 8 and 16 bit). Things were so different back then and I don't mean just the tech. It was like we all shared the same passion and dreams... I miss that feeling. Great... now I'm feeling all nostalgic.
Thanks for uploading. After all these years it is still enjoyable :)
Well said
(everyone sitting in the circle clap their hands and say "thank you Uplink X64", feeling the same)
Takes me right back to happier times...Loved my 64 and Amiga :) So grateful I grew up in that era where it all began with the 8 bits then the 16 bits, consoles & coin-ops - they were the days...
Totally agree 🙏
Always a classic watching it again! greetz to all the sceeners from back then. RSI and TRSI 4ever! no risk no fun! red sector number one!
Best music by far of any Amiga demos.
Thanks for making this video and pausing to play the music - these tunes are truly iconic!
The music in the vectorballs part just blows my mind
Been so lucky to have witnessed that era ... No social media...swapping floppies by postal mail ...
GO AMIGA! 30 years later and a few GHz faster and still can't get decent, jerkless scrolling on PCs.
Also, some of the best Amiga demo-tunes here, especially RSI-hard by Romeo Knight (08:45).
oh göttlich, das waren Zeiten, als wäre es gestern gewesen. Ich erinnere mich noch gut, ist fast 30 Jahre her.
13:37 One of the best music I've ever listened to in my life. All that made with 4 voices (not 4 tracks, only 4 voices!) in fake stereo (2 voices on the left, 2 voices on the right), very few ram and... a lot of genius!
Sounds a lot like Jean Michelle Jarre.
@@leoingson To me it sounds wayyyy better than Jean-Michel Jarre, I even can't compare ;)
@@ngc-ol9nb Dude. Check out th-cam.com/video/hpLquTaMSxU/w-d-xo.html
@@leoingson Ah Captain blood, souvenirs... 😍 But this marvellous (master)piece from this RSI megademo, 30 years I still listen to it sometimes and it remains in my top ten of all I've ever heard :)
I was in another life when this was made. Damn.
I remember watching this back then in my room. It was all so amazing to look at and the music!!! TY!
ahh..... Part 3. That proper loosened some synapses. 34years since I last heard this. Thanks!
Great!
Every track on this Amiga music demo was and is a classic!
Still have them around on some disks in my vault...
13:38 tune was the best one for me - haunting flute sound and great tune overall - Amiga scene at the time was really fantastic at this stuff. Shame theres nothing like it now. at least that i know of...
It's a classic, I have to agree that it's a superb, memorable track.
HELLOW1969 Thought I’d tracked down all of the game/demo music I loved during the Amiga era but this slipped through the net. Just heard this a few days ago and it was a wonderful surprise.
So many years later and it’s still great!! :-)
Yes that is a great one. I do sometimes also find myself still humming to the loading tune as well. Here is another classic that no one probably remembers from 1988: m.th-cam.com/video/f0ZEsKvMsXE/w-d-xo.html
roygalaasen I actually taped most of my favourites on about 4 C90 tapes. I converted them to mp3 but there are some songs that were competition winners and I’ve never seen them online also Ipec elite chart chat no 5 had a great tune in it but I’ve never heard that anywhere online or 4champ so only a slightly warbling c90 mp3 rip remains. Alas....
HELLOW1969 the competition winners can be difficult to identify. I have been to a few TG parties, and followed other parties, but things are bound to be forgotten. When it comes to demos, I was quite active, so there may be a possibility I even have some in my favourite folder. There is a place where you can download probably everything, and I mean absolutely everything that has ever been made. It is called modarchive.org . pretty much everything is there. It is probably 40+ GB in size. But obviously with that amount of music it will be hard to find other than randomly playing music. That is a great way to find some great pearls as well.
I could have a quick listen through to see if I can identify anything if it is available anywhere.
This is absolutely MEGA !!! ... I've loved this demo - since back in the day. Music is insane off the charts awesome! Crystal clear 👌 upload to boot ... Props to this channel - Subbed! 👍
man this is soo good!!
this started it all for me. brilliant piece of art!
Quality! Brings back huge memories.
Strong Jean-Michel Jarre influence. Zoolook and Revolution albums! Well done. I love RED SECTOR on my Amiga!
I love the worm farting, still cracks me up!!! AMIGA RULES!!!!
AWESOME! Unfortunately,
one part in the vector ball demo is missing, you know which one ;) Great memories!!
No what part ?!?
Can't tell you how long I've been looking for this demo; couldn't remember the name only the 'It's magic' track starting at 4:27. Was the most amazing thing I'd ever heard (26 YEARS ago!). Thank you so much for posting this!
+Scott Galloway Yeah such a class demo from a great time, Thanks for watching.
It's called Romeo Knight - Rise Up
I agree. Pure art.
True: nice piece of composition there!
Does anybody know the lyrics? It sounds like german "Rammelt die Düse, die Lamemse liefert Strom" :-) I wonder for decades..
I grew up with this. Thanks! So happy to experience this again.
Thank you for the video.
I woke up this morning with the music from Part 3 in my head for some bizarre reason. I’ve not viewed this demo for years, so couldn’t place it initially - tried Dexion Megademos 1 and 2 before finding it here 😃. Every part is a musical classic!
There's a thing about the vectorball part that kind of intrigues me to this day (not that it keeps me awake at night, but still ;). At 26:04 there's a juggler doing his stuff and the text reads "but do you know anything out of his private life???" I could swear that what followed immediately after this was a pair of the ball figures going doggy style, but was never able to observe it again. And it's not a contemporary confabulation - I did talk about it with a friend back in the day and despite his repated efforts he never saw it either. A case for Amiga X-Files. ;)
Let me put this decades long mystery for you at rest, your memory is fine and it indeed does exist. It was a hidden part, though i cant remember how it was activated, possibly joystick or mouse button click. Enjoy! th-cam.com/video/gjKkUTlhIek/w-d-xo.html
@@RetroDemoScene Wow, that was quicker than I thought - my Amiga experience is complete now, thank you. ;-)
30 years, OMG!
woah gave me chills full body and goooood memories ;)
First time I saw this I was still a C64 owner and "defender" :-) This was just awesome! Another level at the time!
Those were the best days of my life...Iceman from Zylon/Alpha-Flight on the scroller here ;) I made alot of packtro's,look on youtube and type New Dimensions ..Miss my swapping days,more than 50 post sendings everyday in my mailbox....And the BBS's you had to call with hacked at&t or Sprint cards :D
US Robotics HST modems were the coolest looking by a mile... ah, good times...
Awesome!
8:45 to 13:15 is TOTALLY RAD! Get a mullet, big sunglasses, and a Ferrari Testarossa, and crank that shit!
MAN I wish I could have seen those times! I missed the '80s by just 106 days!!
I know what you are sayings. 80s was my time. I was a teenager back then. We never wished to be alive during Elvis or 50s or 60s because 80s was the best time world has ever seen. When being an American was something to be proud of. World respected us and we ruled the world.
At that time i was totally flashed whats possible on the Amiga
YEAHH!!, Very best AMIGA MEGADEMO!!
My god, the loader music is awesome!
It really doesn't get much better than this ;-)
VIEUX SOUVENIRS.......28 ANS EN ARRIERE. AMSTRAD CPC 664, ATARI 2600 ET AMIGA 2000......
Love "wasteland" from part 5 since i was a kid. 🎶😍
Fond memories !
i watched demos a lot but not more than i played games
Habe ich mal gehabt. Für die Zeit war es der Hammer
Once saw the vectorball part running on a TV in the window of a Danish TV/computer store.
right through 1989 and 1990 was totally into demos, cracks and game spreading... but then suddenly realised I needed to get out more and meet girls.
FYI if nobody else has put it here, the load-screen character was (ahem) "heavily influenced" by the cover for Iron Maiden's single, Stranger in a Strange Land from the Somewhere in Time album. This demo and Audio X from Crusaders are my absolute faves.
20:02 - the best music in this demo.
intro inspired michael Jackson "dirty Diana"
Incredible how after all these years, these tunes are still known to me. Such classics.
These were the days when music containing speech samples was the shit. I watched this demo in awe hundreds of times, but let's face it, the demo quickly got obsolete after Mental Hangover. This generation of demos lacked the production value of the later trackmos. The individual parts went on for too long and so on. But my German grades took a leap for the better after reading through all those scroll texts. Thanks for that Red Sector!
Cool war zu meiner Zeit der Bringer
i still have it on disk
04:27 my favorite song RISE UP
I wonder how many people noticed and understood the spaceship name RTS 4E75?
I tried all kind of balls. But I like vectorballs the most! ;-)
Is it just me or does that guy with the shades look like one of the guys from the criminally under-appreciated game Sentinel Worlds: Future Magic?
OH IT'S STEVIE WONDER
The fireworks are missing :)
I herd this song off need for madness
that text is simply sine modulated
This demo became popular again due to the fact that it didn't need a Kickstart to run, which allowed emulator users to run it to see if their systems could run UAE
Can you elaborate more? Without a KS, the system doesn't engage. Do you mean WB?
please someone tell me the text spoken (felt to be french) in the sample at 4.48! you will unlock a mystery hauntin for decades.
It is german, and nonsense. Have a look at this thread. Romeo Knight will explain it a few posts into it:
www.remix64.com/board/viewtopic.php?t=1472
the voice sounds like the one in Only Afros Giant Dad vid.
First time listening this.
Part 1 is best by far.
Part 4 is ok too.
I think there's an easter egg if you press the joystick button while the text says "private life????" during the balls-flying part. (26:12)
There is indeed. A woman appears (made of balls too, of course), turns around, bends over and the juggler (who has grown genitalia) -- oh, well, you can imagine what happens next. I bumped into it accidentally, having forgotten autofire on my joystick on. Was 13-14, and that day, of all days, had called my mom to watch the Megademo...
No end part? I need my mod.Space2

This one is a treasure, getting older, but in my opinion the amiga was the last/best platform you could bit-bang and enjoy results 🥰
Demoscene when young and a life full of
HAVE TO STOP.
Oh f*ck 13:40 in this coming up.
Too bad the last part (after the credits one) is missing from this video. It's common though: that part is a "guestbook" where swappers could write down their info to people who'd receive the disk next. The only problem was that once too much data is written on disk, the end part stops working. Hence it couldn't be loaded in most versions out there :)
I have no idea what ANY of that means. I wasn't alive during the Amiga demoscene (and I'm 26!!)
What does swapping mean? What disk? What's a guestbook in a demo?
Will you explain how this works plz? :'3
If I remember right, to copy the second disk correctly you had to tell x-copy or whatever you were using that it was 82 tracks instead of 80 - as long as the original disk you had was ok to start with.
jasha That's for DOS. I was talking about Amiga.
That is for Amiga, not DOS. It's how you copy the disk correctly on the Amiga so that the final part of the demo works.
jasha ...oh. Sorry. My bad.
Xcopy is also an MS-DOS command. :) I didn't know it was also an Amiga command.
Ah, the days of floppy disks. :) In 2011, I made my own custom format that was 84 Tracks, 24 Sectors per Track, and 2048 bytes DMF format. I might have some terms mixed up.
Instead of 1.38 MB, I got 1.82 MB of usable space out of a 3½" floppy. That's about 2 MB unformatted.
Thank you for the info! :)
Als man selbst noch gar nicht wusste wer man eigentlich ist
Wo kann man sich diese Demo herunterladen?
They didn't record the secret part 😊
Culte (for me)
I'm not very fluent in English. What does he say at 4:26 ? "...very very big shit" ?
"Uhhh it's going to be a very very big Hit! (Hit... hit...)"
That's what he says. 😅
Thanks :)
Nach über 30 Jahren weiß ich endlich wer das Intro gesprochen hatte 😁

Our time was so much better then the noobs wich gaze all days at iphones these days and produce nothing.
But noobs were called lamers at the time. 😀

Haha, I can't believe this was cool back then 😂😂😂😂
🥰
Where's the ending quiz?
So sad what computers have become. And they call it progress :(
