Most Demoscene prods have written greetings to groups and people in one form or another, but this thread lists those prods, on all platforms, that VERBALLY give those greetings, either spoken or sung as part of music, whether it be human voice or speech synthesis or whatever!

I'll start the list going:

HUMAN TRAFFIC @ loonies @ ghostown
UREA @ rave network overscan
STORM RIDER @ focus design
TOP GEAR @ nah-kolor
1995 @ mfx @ kewlers
WORLD DOMINATION @ odd
ETERNAL DREAM OF BEAUTY @ still
COMALAND @ oxyron @ censor design

Come on!

Variform

ASD - Beyond the walls of Eryx
Panda Cube - PC-07: Breached

I did consider the Eryx demo by ASD, but I thought it was quite vague as to other groups mentioned: I can see Cocoon and Andromeda, but then the lyrics also pointed to other ASD productions, so...

D'oh! Forgot about Beams!

how can you forget acme - 303

oh uh... my brain did greets -> lyrics... nevermind :D

The Nature of Magic. The whole demo's music is a song praising demomakers and groups.

not greets but fuckings variform 2

Didn't one of Viznut's VIC-20 demos do that?

and Planet Potion

We tried to do it with lip sync in ZCareplex MK5

Doesn't Focus Design's Stormrider have lyrical greets? I tried to play it again now, but for some reason the sound just came out as a solid stream of noise in FSUAE

@rloaderro: Yes

Leap Of Faith has got a "hands on" (sample-drawing) Protracker approach for spoken greetings by Novel.

"In Space" by Fairlight from 2003 has some FT2 "voice synthesis" for the credits and the greets :D

I'd link the prod here on Pouet, but the tune in the YouTube capture is horrendously broken, so here's the XM: https://modland.com/pub/modules/Fasttracker%202/Reed/in%20space.xm
