Name of a demo group

Wonder if anyone can help me here, I've been wondering about this for quite some time...

Back in the golden C64 era, there was a demo group that released a whole series of "music" demos. From what I remember they were visually fairly simple (a picture and a scrolly message, for example) but each one had a great piece of music.

And that's all I can remember about them -- oh, except for that fact that in one of their scrolly messages they said, "(group name) are back to burn!" (that's a useful clue I'm sure

)

Does this ring any bells with anyone? Not a lot to go on I know, but I'd like to listen to the music again and I've no idea where to start -- I figured that if anyone knows it's likely to be one of you guys.

Thanks for any help,

The Electronic Knights?

Ah yes, yes, I think it was The Electronic Knights! Thanks for that Marcel, I'll have fun listening to those tonight.

Hey Adam, are you doing Retrovision in Feb 05 ?

Sure am, have the tickets in my drawer at home. I think I'm becoming a bit of a SID'80s groupie.

You going?

I'm only attending on the Saturday, and I'll probably just drive home again afterwards. Look forward to seeing you there!

Didn't they also do this Iron Maiden/egyptian mask/Tut-Ench-amun-Screen-Demo? I loved it and kept sitting sitting in front of it for hours.....

Are you thinking of the follow-up to Future Shock?

Metal Bar and Metal Bar II. By the Borderzone Design Team.

Can't recall if those were done before or after Future Shock, though.

Neil "Demon" Baldwins Future Shock has to be the coolest SID ever. And Max Halls remix is just spot on. Although not many people seem to agree with me on that.

I think Trace's version is the cooler.

(Tops my Trace playlist.)

Who do you think talked Trace into doing his version?
