- The Shadows — Norway, founded 1986
This 1989 Shadows intro features music by Stone of Prosonix and The Troopers, with the ripped SID being "Destination (1)" preserved in the HVSC. Released in February 1989, it was used in crack releases for Action Service, Hillsfar, and Run the Gauntlet, among others. The Shadows were a Norwegian group founded in 1986, one of the few Scandinavian cracking crews operating outside of Sweden's dominant scene. By early 1989, the group was in its productive middle period — still two years from their eventual dissolution around 1991. This intro is one of three Shadows productions in this collection alongside TSW-01 and TSW-06. Stone's compositions were popular rip sources among Scandinavian groups, his work with Prosonix placing him among the region's notable SID musicians. The group's consistent output across multiple years demonstrates their sustained commitment to the C64 platform.
