Classic musicdisk! I liked the tunes more here than in Crystal Symphonies 1 (which were great also). Nice presentation, cool hand painted logos and fantastic music. Get the WHDLoad installer if you want to run this and CS1 on your modern Amiga.

By the way, Crystal Symphonies 3 (also called Fesk) was released later on by Phenomena, Movement and Pulse on the pc. Worth checking out though the quality of the tunes does vary a lot.

And by the way, if you download the Crystal Symphonies 3 archive following the link on Pouët, you will find the tunes in the archive as modules. So everybody can check them out. Also, the modules from Crystal Symphonies 2 are on Aminet, in the mods/sets directory.

Super music disk including the songs "The Sweat Shop", "Yummy Gap", "Liberation", "Disharmony", Life-Phobia" and "The Search for Me". Color's logos are not that good but the code is really nice for a zikdisk. Great stuff!

Admins: 1992...

@prm:

I know it was released in 1992, but i haven't found the month of release (which is needed for the database and is also the reason why quite a few other demos haven't got their release date added here on A.D.A.). I have probably read all the scrollers, but nowhere is there a mention of releasemonth. Thanks for pointing out the mistakes and the info you give on A.D.A by the way. It is appreciated.

This demo doesn't really hold that much nostalgia for me because I only ever listen to the mods - I always had trouble getting this demo to work on my Amiga! :(

All I can say is that 'The Sweat Shop' and 'Yummy Gap' sit very highly in my 'best mods of all time' chart. The Sweat Shop is such a wonderful orchastration of style and heartfelt piano moments that it almost feels like a conversion of a real song. And Yummy Gap, well, it's just tracking genious. Even now I load it up into FastTracker and stare in amazement at the complex pattern programming. Simply stunning!
