A well-credited production from Motiv 8 — Iceball coded, Lord Red handled graphics, Kwon contributed the charset, and Norwegian musician Shark (Glenn Rune Gallefoss) provided "Norvegia (thats a cheese)," preserved in the HVSC. The whimsical SID title — referencing a Norwegian cheese brand — reflects the informal humour typical of Scandinavian scene culture. Released in April 1995, this arrived fifteen months after Motiv 8's founding on 8 January 1994. The Danish group was part of the final generation of dedicated C64 cracking operations. This is the twentieth numbered intro from the group, appearing alongside #499 M8-10 in the rankings. The Scandinavian music pipeline is evident here — a Norwegian composer contributing to a Danish group. Lord Red, listed with CSDb scener ID 13, was a graphics artist whose work appeared across multiple groups during the mid-1990s.
