Panic too! With the same cool trackmo logic, but older technology, but still really cool!

It's just the perfect synchronizing/effects that are out before you can take a breath/trackmo amiga style logic!!!

You know something? Second Reality and Panic are the best with the trackmo logic. When I lack from demos like these on PC, I run Feelow and see some Amiga500 demos! (Damn,. I have to buy a real Amiga :P)

how's come the first thumb up is a year after submisssion %)

this demo is unbelieveable!
  added on the 2001-09-25 by PigPen  
hmmh, I always liked Panic better than Second Reality...
  added on the 2001-09-25 by britelite  
I disagree. Second Reality was overall a better production than Panic. I saw Panic after SR and it was evident that Panic missed a couple of things. Apart from that, Panic is a very good prod. Hard techno music, lots of fractal effects and a dark mood to go. A worthy and respectable prod from FC.

Just to vote!
  added on the 2001-10-22 by Optimouse  
Worth a vote. Had amazing effects (some of them, anyway), music, and design for 1992, on any system.
  added on the 2001-11-28 by phoenix  
A good production by the FC.

For some reason I remember liking the opening zooming text sync'd with sound FX back best in '92, as well as the closing "TV" style screen power off :)
Some nice pixel graphics in this one.
  added on the 2001-12-17 by hd  
The very beginning of this demo is sick :) Polished to hell.
  added on the 2002-01-28 by bigcheese  
Yeah, vote. I'm not part of the PC demoscene roots, and in fact, they're somewhat worse than the other systems, but this was a sign of hope :)
  added on the 2002-02-21 by kb_  
First demo I ever saw.. and the one that got me intrested in the scene.. You wont believe how I got my hands on it thought.. It came with a pack of CD's with diffrent utils for our first 486 back in '95 =) I still watch it now and the on the very same 486 =)
  added on the 2002-02-28 by Phrekie  
I remember the fractal-voxel and the music the best. This demo was really good, but fell between "Unreal" and "Second Reality" in style.
  added on the 2002-02-28 by gloom  
Whate the?! I din't vote for this?

For 1992 it was a screamer, really good stuff, despite some really bad pixel art. There was some consternation about pre-calc scenes, but like anybody cared :) I recall FC being really huffy about getting to 2nd place, for reasons they thought unfair.

this was cool back then, tho i like(d) Unreal and SR better.

love

Too bad it only runs on SB, and requires EMS - the latter was considered quite lame back then.

music == oWnage
  added on the 2002-10-21 by Gargaj  
I agree.
  added on the 2002-10-23 by megamies  
Pfft!
  added on the 2002-11-06 by sprocket  
One of the best! I'd often view it over and over on my 386DX-40. With the advent of Farb-Rausch demos, it is starts to look dated graphically, but some of the concepts and imagery are still fresh.

The music in this is great-- a worthwhile listen even separate from the demo itself.
  added on the 2003-12-01 by MrSparkle  
hmm... I can see the gfx but I can't hear anything ! Running in Win2K w/ VDMSound. I also tried with the DOSBox 0.60 emulator and still, no sound. Anyone has a suggestion ?
  added on the 2004-02-23 by BarZoule  
Sound breaks off after a few seconds in 0.61 as well. I suggest buying the MindCandy DVD or building a 486 out of old parts. :)
  added on the 2004-02-23 by phoenix  
I finally got a old SoundBlaster 16, so I can now watch that great demo in the real DOS ! woohoo!!
  added on the 2004-06-06 by BarZoule  
gotta vote for this, this baby got me in the scene!
  added on the 2004-06-06 by okkie  
cool

cool
  added on the 2004-06-22 by shadez  
Thanks MindCandy for finally giving me the opportunity to see this gem =)

Great music, some neat effects, nice synchro, all in '92 style =P

What more could you ask?
  added on the 2004-07-22 by Nezbie  
Oldschool PC style.
  added on the 2004-08-15 by sim  
Yes kickin' it with oldschool, Thanks mindcandy
  added on the 2004-09-15 by Mike 3D  
The fractal mountain effect really kicks ass. And it has shadebobs and dot vectors too <3
  added on the 2004-09-15 by elsewhere  
A classic. Great code, music and synchro. As I recall, this is one of the first early PC demos that wasn't completely boring to non-computer people.
  added on the 2004-09-22 by wad_  
the first seconds are already more than enough for a massive thumb up :)
  added on the 2004-09-22 by blala  
TRACKMOs ROXXOR!
  added on the 2004-09-22 by Maali  
good shit back then
  added on the 2004-09-26 by rydi  
extremely oldschool, rather difficult to get running, but entertaining none the less.
  added on the 2004-11-05 by witeshade  
again:
  added on the 2004-11-16 by toxie  
A classic for PC.
  added on the 2004-11-18 by chock  
Another classic from Future Crew. The rythm of the music and the synchronization with it was probably what made it so cool.
  added on the 2004-11-26 by Spock  
So fucking nice, too bad I haven't seen it with music for 4 years now :(
  added on the 2004-11-26 by [self-ban]  
Big hit back then. Not as good as Unreal, but...
  added on the 2004-12-11 by Mr Twist Laser  
panic!!
  added on the 2005-05-12 by chavez  
A great Future Crew demo, nothing more to say than excellent. Great timing and some really cool effects also.
  added on the 2005-07-14 by d3pth  
perfect
  added on the 2005-07-14 by trigger  
Really good! Ace music and some outstanding effects for their day.

one of the nicest shadebobs ever, nostalgia to the max

good
mode X?
  added on the 2006-09-19 by BITS  
The first demo I ever saw, totally amazing. FC were great those days - and then they came up with stuff like unreal and second reality which made them the dicks of the universe.
  added on the 2006-11-03 by hashdash  
FC to the gods!
  added on the 2006-11-03 by zeebr  
This is the first demo I ever saw! :--) Back on my 386DX. The mandlebrot stack used to blow my mind - even if I didn't have a sound card. :-D

the rest of the demo doesn't quite keep up on the same level with the music, but i still like this classic. though, as with 2nd reality, also in panic some scenes and pixelart are ugly
  added on the 2007-08-13 by piksi  
way cool for its time.
  added on the 2007-08-13 by uncle-x  
The voxel fractal looked awesome on the big screen at TP'92. I think that's the first time I saw something on PC that really kicked Amiga's butt.
  added on the 2007-08-13 by cruzer  
Thumbs up for its time, but I don't like it too much.. The music is for me...

panic!

The demo from Future Crew that I use to explain to Gargaj why 2nd Reality isn't as good as other Future Crew demos.

rulez for me!
thumbing down for this is idiotic!
  added on the 2008-03-31 by angel-dust  
Great great great!!!
  added on the 2008-04-11 by Nomax  
this is the first demo i ever saw as well. i was so impressed, and so excited by the concept of demos, that it caused me to buy a pc and a soundcard, and eventually join the demoscene.
  added on the 2008-05-18 by gd  
This was one of the very first I had seen as well. A real groundbreaker for its time. I was amazed watching my 386DX33 run this.
  added on the 2008-05-18 by ngtflyer  
Saw it live at TP92. Amazing. Haven't seen it since... :(
  added on the 2008-08-14 by Moby  
this is what inspired me to start with scream tracker.
  added on the 2009-01-03 by tH4b0Mb  
Ooh, classic!

Thumb for the Voxel Fractal and the Logo.
Gosh.. PC stuff from 1992.. ;)
  added on the 2009-01-04 by gentleman  
nah, gathering glöps.
  added on the 2009-05-11 by tzaeru  
Oh well. It's kinda classic, I know, I know. But what the heck were they thinking of when they put that stickman "techno" crap in the beginning?
  added on the 2009-05-24 by Marq  
Classic
