- demo MS-Dos Second Reality by Future Crew
- There is a story behind this demo which I'd really like to share!
One day a friend gave me loads of disks with games on it and included was this demo. This was the first demo I ever saw and I instantly fell in love with the music. So much that I spent months trying to find out how to make PC music, eventually I discovered trackers and the scene and started writing my own stuff in scream tracker and ultimately IT.
After 3 years of tracking myself and some friends got together with a local drum'n'bass DJ and MC and hired a venue and held our very first rave called "beyond Vinyl", we hooked up a PC with impulse tracker and played some of my drum'n'bass tunes alongside the DJ, we also had live visuals on a screen. This wasn't a demo party, it was a real drum'n'bass rave for the general public. The diference being that we displayed visuals from our favourite demos on a large screen.
A lot of the punters commented on the visuals and were intruiged. The projection screen we had was huge plus we had very good disco lighting to compliment it. Although they didn't understand the concept of the demo scene they thought it was the coolest thing ever and our rave became quite popular, at its peak we had over 600 ravers attending.
I owe my life to this demo because if I hadn't had seen it I would have never got into tracking and ultimately music.
Thanks to the future crew nowdays I produce dance music as a second job. The first tune I released on vynil was called "The Future, Always so clear" and was a tribute to the future crew. It was made entirely in Impulse Tracker.
Thanks FC!!! - isokadded on the 2006-08-04 10:46:51
