Mirage Intro #1, released on 28 November 1991, is a crack intro from the group Mirage. The code is by Roy, with music by Drax -- the legendary Danish SID composer Thomas Mogensen, whose tune "Prince of Darkness (ingame)" provides the soundtrack. Master Kracker contributed an NTSC fix to ensure compatibility with North American hardware. Notably, the CSDb entry lists this release under Genesis Project (group ID 396), suggesting a possible connection or cooperation between Mirage and GP. The intro demonstrates the standard practice of the era where prolific musicians like Drax supplied tunes to numerous groups. Drax's compositions appear across dozens of crack intros from this period, and his contribution here adds musical pedigree to Mirage's release. The NTSC fix by Master Kracker further indicates this crack was intended for transatlantic distribution.
