Group

Abyss

(amiga/.de) - AYS

Abyss is a German-based Amiga demo group, formed late 1992 by the best members of the two groups Arise (Dragonfly, Lou Van B, Vision, Falcon, Kyle, Skyline ...) and Beyond (Aloy, Sodom, Toxic, ...). The group released their first production in december of the same year at The Party 1992, called Mona Lisa Was A Man.

Protektor and Cardinal, sysops WORLD DOWN FALL, both joined Crystal in september 1992.

El Cativo joined from Submission and changed his name to S.M.U.D.O., while Mystec left to be independent 1. Mr. Night was kicked due to lameness in mid 1993. Zeroflag (code) and Caro were kicked.

The entire group Pyrodex joined in 1994. The august release Diznee Land 2 listed Tyshdomos, Dexter, Bartman, SMC, Neurodancer, The Duke, Moon, Toxic, Memoree, Pink, Jumping Pixel, Cazal, Poet and Skindiver - plus Alloy as a mascot - as members at that time.

At the very end of june 1995, the small musicdisk Orange 8 featured a memberlist, revealing that The Duke, Cazal, Skindiver and Alloy had disappeared since the list in august last year, that Mem O'Ree had changed his handle to Lukain the meantime, and it welcomed Qwerty and Sting to the group.

German swapper Sting (ex Bonzai Brothers) was kicked due to inactivity in july 1996. Norwegian musician Chris Meland (ex Spaceballs) was kicked in october. Also Jumping Pixel and Luka were both kicked due to inactivity in october. Their first foray into pc demo production was the dos demo Downtown at The Party 1996 in december.

In january 1997, Big-Rat and Madstop both joined Abyss from Ethic as double members, making their diskmagazine X-Files a joint production in the process - starting with X-Files 13, released in early february. It is a little unclear what happened to the membership of German graphician JCS (ex Scoopex, doublememb Syndrome, new 10/96-12/96), but he was in both Sector 7, Syndrome and Abyss in april 1997 - and not a member later in the year. Swedish multitalent (code/gfx/music/sysop) Newt (ex Crux and Subspace, new 10/96) decided to leave the scene to concentrate on his career as an in-line skater around september.

The demo Startrail to Glory was released at Mekka Symposium 1998 in april, and reached 2nd place in the demo competiton. The windows demo Nikolaus at The Party 1998 followed in december, once again achieving a second-placed position.

The only edition of DisIsSid ever for non-Amigas, DisIsSid 4, was released at Mekka Symposium 2000, reaching a 9th position in the demo competition.
