Excellent second book in this series. A fantastic time capsule and trip down to memory lane. So great to have some background info about those fantastic demos i enjoyed on my Amigas during the 80s/90s! A book/series about the 8-bit demoscene would be awesome also 😉 Thank you for this splendid piece of work.

9 July 2022 What an amazing trip down memory lane. I was simultaneously reading and going to Youtube/Soundcloud to find all the Demo's and amazing music from that time period. Both books are well worth getting if you were at all involved in the Demo scene or if you just loved the productions. Demoscene the AGA yearsNiels K (Split/BLC)
11 July 2022 - The editing and layout of the book are of very high quality. The large number of images and logos is impressive, highly diverse, and very original. It evokes nostalgia for past eras and serves as an excellent source of inspiration, especially when compared to the bland and soulless type design often seen nowadays.
