History

Released
March 1988
Music
Red (Jeroen Kimmel) — "Watch It!"
Group
Madsquad — Netherlands, founded 1987

This crack intro is catalogued on CSDb as "Madsquad Intro 02," released in March 1988. Like the group's first intro, it features music by Red — Jeroen Kimmel of The Judges — performing the SID tune "Watch It!" from the HVSC. The reuse of the same soundtrack across multiple intros was common practice, allowing groups to maintain a consistent sonic identity. Madsquad was a Dutch cracking group founded in 1987, situated within one of the densest C64 scenes in Europe. Doc Snyder's page preserves scrolltext from the group's intros, showing greetings to Ace, TPI, FCS, FAC, Dominators, Antitrax, Triad, Ikari, TWG, C64CG, Beastie Boys, TDF, Detonator, DCU, Fairlight, and others — a roll call of the era's most active European groups. This is one of two Madsquad entries in the rankings — see also Madsquad-01.
