- North East Crackers -- United States, founded 1988
Tape coded this eleventh numbered NEC intro, released on 11 May 1990, while Tim (Tim Kleinert) contributed the music -- a SID composition preserved in the HVSC. North East Crackers was an American group founded in 1988, with an extensive catalogue of at least sixteen numbered intros. NEC is well represented across the ranking, with entries at #148 NEC-08, #165 NEC-16, and #242 NEC-02. Doc Snyder's page documents the group's history, including a moving 2019 comment from Mangar/NEC thanking founding member Zsolt (Horizon) for teaching him computer science when they were 13 and 14 years old. The May 1990 release date places this late in the American C64 scene's active period. Tim Kleinert's music contribution adds another German-American connection, as his SID work appears in the HVSC under the Kleinert directory. A graphics credit is recorded on CSDb but with no identified scener.
