The latest demo I was able to find from Arson, this one really does seem to be some of their best work. There are really great effects in here, including some creative pages that really depart from the usual. This one's a must-have for your NTSC collection, hats off to the crew of Arson! Keep It Oldschool!

A Canadian group from the early 90s, Excalibur went through a few incarnations before fizzling out in 1992. There's a certain feeling that goes with anything from that period in the c64's history - a kind of sensation that comes with seeing a TSM intro, for instance - and I think EXC intros capture it completely. This video contains the 6 of their intros that I was able to track down - I'll revise it if more turn up. Enjoy, and ... Keep It Oldschool!

As mentioned in previous video texts, FBR rose quickly in the late 80's to dominate the US scene. This video is a collection of their intros, 32 to be exact, almost an hour and a half of video. Enjoy, and ... Keep It Oldschool!

A farewell demo from one of the most influential groups in the US scene, this is mostly a collection of their past intros. There's a lot of back-story as to why and how FBR decided to hang it up, but I will simply leave it as "internal conflicts". The core members went on to form the group "Intense". Keep it Oldschool!

Here we have a linked video show of all of the intros from the group "Public Enemy" that I could find. Founded in 1987, this group didn't have heavy distribution channels in my area so much of its history remains unknown to me. Keep It Oldschool!

Here we have a linked video show of all of the intros from the group "Abyss" that I could find.   Founded in 1987 by LongShot and Raster Blaster, Abyss grew over the next year to become one of the more influential groups of 1988.  Riddled by infighting, member-defection, and accusations of intro-ripping, the group dissolved in 1988.  Whatever you think of Abyss (I always thought they were great), there's no denying their influence in the intro scene. The sprite motion in #5 really stands out, but they're all gems.  Above, you will find links to the ABYSS page on Intros.c64.org, as well as a link to a D64 image containing all of these intros.  ENJOY, and... Keep It Oldschool!

Here we have a linked video show of all of the intros from the group "Exodus" that I could find.  These span the group's entire run, from its early days as a fledgling import group, to its near-complete dominance of the US import scene.  As someone who got their start as an intro coder, intros have always held a special magic for me.  I can still remember seeing some of these for the first time, and even 30 years later the magic hasn't faded.  Above, you will find links to the Exodus page on Intros.c64.org, as well as a link to a D64 image containing all of these intros.  ENJOY, and...
