        E.C.C PartyReport !!!
       =======================
        by Colorbird/Illusion

From  5/8  to  8/8 1993 did Virtual, a
quite  unknown  group, arrange a party
in  Sweden.   They  promised  lot  and
fulfilled  most  of the promises, even
though   it   didnt   come   too  much
visitors.     Actually   only   around
500-600  guys  turned  up.   Not  much
known  guys were there.  Only Alcatraz
Sweden,   some  guys  from  Stellar  ,
Carillion,    Razor    1911,    Circle
Phenomena,  Silent

FAIRLIGHT - "242"

CODE:  One routine !  An impressive one
though, by Dr.Skull.  A packing routine
that  shows  a  digitised  movie on the
screen...
GFX:   Non-Existant  if  you  dont call
digitised picture graphics...
MUSIC:   A  kind  of  Techno style tune
that  actually  is  really good !!!  It
suits this demo perfectly...
DESIGN:   This is not a demo, this is a
musicvideo..   Its  kind  like State of
the  Art  but  with  a  digitised movie
instead...   Like  a technomovie..  The
design is ac

ESSENCE - "A.S.S"

CODE:   There are actually not anything
new  here  but  its done in a very good
way  which  makes  this demo one of the
best   this  summer.   Escepcially  the
dottunnel was great!
GFX:   A lot of master pieces by Groo n
Rufferto.   Simply the best part of the
demo...
MUSIC:  Normal demomusic that suits the
demo fine but nothing more..
DESIGN:    SuperB   linkages   and   an
extremely   good  selection  of  colors
makes  it  one  of  the  best  designed
trackmos ever !!!  
TOT

PYGMY PROJECTS - "EXTENSION"

CODE:   The  code  is  very  impressive
because  the basic ideas are simple but
they have done it in an impressive way.
The vector citys are really great !!!
GFX:   There  is  just some fonts and a
loaderpicture   that   is   just  about
average.    Nothing   to   complain  on
though...
MUSIC:  Jester/Sanity has done a rather
good tune that fits the demo very good.
It  sounds  like  its kind of linked to
the demo.
DESIGN:   Nice  screen and selection of
colours  but

RAGE - "NEURAL ASSAULT"

CODE:   Well,  one routine that made me
satisfied,  the  rest  are too slow low
quality    routine   with   almost   no
innovation..
GFX:    Logos   are   average  but  the
pictures !  They STINK!  A naked female
makes  me  wonder if the graphician has
ever seen a naked woman in his life...
MUSIC:   Not  bad  but  not  good.   An
average  tune  in a style that I do not
think suit a demo..
DESIGN:   Strange and sometimes ugly...
But   I   have  seen  worth  from  them
bef

LEMON. - "A RINK PINK"

CODE:   Not  much  routines,  but those
included  is  of  a  very high quality.
Nice  work  by  Paradroid there...  The
Graphicsrotater     has    an    really
impressive zoomeffect..
GFX: A very good titlepicture by Danny
and Facet. And some really good logos
too... Very good...
MUSIC:  One word is enough...  NUKE !
DESIGN:  Nice linkages and selection of
colors  in  this one.  Lemon shows that
they know design here.
TOTAL:Well, This demo could have been a
top  5 demo bu

SUICID #6

Intro: tsk.. not good... And I thought
TRSI had good graphicians.   This  may
suit  the  diskmag of an unknown group
but in TRSI !!!

Code: Well, nothing to complain about.
All  works as it should and it's quite
fast...

Design: Here is the point where we can
talk for hours but I will only say, if
you think Propaganda #1 has bad design
then read Suicid  and you  change your
mind pretty fast... 

Music: As I only remember that I first
liked  it for a  few minutes  before I
turned  down

UPSTREAM #6

Intro: Well, its a real intro...  Well
What should one say, cool  picture and
nice tune.     The beginning is  quite
effectfull but  the vectorobjects  are
really lame. 

Code:      YES! The code is smooth and
everything that one could ever want in
a diskmag is included.

Design:    This  mag is a  pleasure to
read. The overall look is really good.
The colors  are a  bit  to  dark in my
taste but they suit each other perfect
The text  is  very well  formatted and
makes it easy to re

ILLUSION - "WATERPROOF"

CODE:  Well, a nice gfx rotater that is
faster  than  Lemons.   Some  nice ball
routines    and    fractal   routines..
Perhaps  one  of the strongest parts in
this demo..
GFX:  One good logo and rest of the gfx
are just average.
MUSIC:  A really good technostyle track
in  this  demo  that  really  suits the
demo.   Some1  & Prime show again their
quality...
DESIGN: ehhh... No linkages, only fades
and flashes. Some nice colors on some
screens, though....
TOTAL: A good tr
