One of the first demos I ever saw. Still makes me laugh and the kaos music was excellent at the time. No (serious) effects, just fun! :-)
rulez added on the 2001-11-02 16:50:57 by moT moT
Good sound, good gfx, no big effects.
I love it...so much !
La partie avec les canards qui font du beat box, c'était trop fort :-)

This was my sole inspiration for becoming a scener.

Absolutely classic stuff. Adult cartoons, rave demos, animations, ducks immitating a beat box and more. An awesome demo! Kaos :)

i never liked this one. but it's a classic, i the like end tune and i don't want to lower my avarage vote even more so i don't give it a thumb down although it deserves one in my opinion.

some parts are funny, still mostly this is boring. no thumbs up or down.

africa.mod from this demo is still a classic. the production itself is ok, i think i found it more funny when i was 14 ..

Classic early production. Many hated it cuz it wasn't that great for code - prolly equivalent to MinimalAnimal today (:
mempheria, of course, i actually wanted to put this comment to the megademo 2, hence i mixed up the pouet-entries =)
added on the 2003-06-05 11:47:25 by dalezr dalezr
Not the first demo i saw, but the oldest i can remember watching :) This was a definite classic back then, with the humour, the cool tunes, and the many annoying scrollers :) I'll watch the divx for old times sake, then take a look at 2 (never did manage to find a copy of that back in those days!)
rulez added on the 2003-07-04 16:45:27 by psonice psonice
That was good... but what happened to all the scrollers? must of been another demo.

the first demo that i really enjoyed. back then i thought that rsi megademo sucked in comparasion, since the only good part in that one was the farting worm. my taste has changed a bit in the last 12 years, but i still like this one

Never fell for this back in the day. Too much waiting for another basic, slow part with nothing of interest.

Wasn't a fan of the poop humor back then either. I guess the beatbox chicks is the best part, but that's sadly half-baked too. Could have been something if it was a whole song.

"First rave demo?" Depends on what you mean with "rave demo" I guess.. But no, definitely not the first. Out of the well known ones, e.g. Coma by Rebels was released months before this.
rulez added on the 2016-02-27 16:27:38 by break break
But yes, this is of course one of the major classics and milestones in the scene history. Naturally caused lots of hate among the code-oriented sceners back in the day. I exchanged some emails with the coder a few years ago trying to find out some details about their works, nice guy. See "Alphawave Association" for earlier releases by the coder, dating back to 1988 :)

Just nothing special here. I remember actively disliking it back in the day for the lack of effects, now it just feels like I don't care much, so oink.

A classic for sure, although the Hustler part is clearly not as good as Gammal Man and could perhaps have been moved to its own production, or omitted completely.

I just watched a Red Dwarf episode without a laugh track and it just wasn't the same. Then it came to me that this is the only demo that has a laugh-track.
rulez added on the 2021-05-16 19:35:16 by rloaderro rloaderro
A real classic. Some great tunes and I remember some good laughs when seeing it for the first time. One of the few demos that does not take itself and the demo scene too serious and that's a good thing.
