Code

Music
Red (Jeroen Kimmel) — Rhaa Lovely II

This crack intro from Actual Cracking Entertainment is catalogued on CSDb as release #58985, dated 23 November 1987. Code is credited to Coco, with music by Red — the Dutch composer Jeroen Kimmel — using his SID tune "Rhaa Lovely II," preserved in the HVSC. The scrolltext announces a crack of "Garfield from the Edge" by Firkin on 21 December 1987 and names the group's compact roster as Coco, Dr. Strange, Firkin, Gene, TBF, and Zerocat. Greetings extend to Fusion, Ikari, Fairlight, TWG, Dominators, FAC, Hotline, FCS, Triad, Antitrax, Shield, and others — a cross-section of the late-1987 European cracking scene. ACE maintained contact through a Norwegian telephone number belonging to member Gene. This is the higher-ranked of the two ACE entries, alongside #621 ACE Intro #3.
