Rebels was once a major force on the demo scene, but activity has decreased
somewhat in later years. They now seem to be on their way back, though,
with some activity evident from coder Krustur and musician Jerry.
ROM4 reported rumours that german graphician TeeVaan had left the scene in
order to produce game graphics.
1994 - Shortly after being reformed, the German section released their
first demo, "Prurient" [94]. It was quickly followed by the winner of the
Doomsday party, "Switchback" [10/94], and the Rebels seemed to be back on
track! The finished the year at the party with "Whammer Slammer" [12/94],
the third demo in a row by german duo Zulu and Grey. Sometime between 04 and
05/94, swedish sysop Dracula ('TRANSYLVANIA', 03/94-) left the group. Bozo
became mainorg. Sometime between 05 and 10/94, germans Siriax (Dennis
Lewerenz, trade sysop 'CRAP TOWER', new 04/94-), Toxic (Sven Dedek, gfx,
later Abyss, new 05/94-) and Dynamite (Sirko Zidlewitz, music, 04/94-), as
well as danes Angel (trade, 03/94-), D-Siya (modemorg trade, 03/94-), Ice
Lord (Mikael, gfx, 03/94-), Janitor (trade, 03/94-), Static (Anders Bukh,
music, 03/94-), Strike (Jesper Knudsen, trade, 03/94-), Xod (Morton Plass,
gfx, still in the pc section? 03/94-) and Yoyo (Karsten Kiems, music,
03/94-) left the group. Sometime between 09 and 10/94, German sysop MDB
(Carsten Lewandowsky, 'LOVE LIKE BLOOD') left the group.
1995 - After three strong demo releases in 1994, the new year presented
us with total silence! It was also this year that German organizers Exciter
(Ingo Kamps) and Weezer decided to leave the scene. Things were further
complicated when his replacement, the dane Nighthawk (Steffen Karstoft, gfx,
ex Majic 12, 03/94-) also decided to leave the scene in August, after moving
over to England to study! His replacement - in turn - would be the swede
Swoop, hopefully a more permanent solution. Swedish graphician Slime (Ola
Wiklander, 09/94-12/95) left the scene towards the end of the year, after
his computer died. Danish cofounder and earlier main organizer Bozo
(Flemming Ljungdahl, 02/94-) also sadly decided to leave the scene towards
the end of the year.
1996 - The year started tragically, as a lightning bolt took out Twister's
board 'FLASHBACK' in january. After some consideration, Twister (Anders
Lindquist) and fellow swede graphician Disc (Mats Erikson, ex Tetragon
or Equinox, 95-) were asked to leave the group. Around the same time
Norwegian sysop Jedi (Hans Petter Andersen, ex Puzzle) decided to leave the
Amiga scene for his career in a pc cracking group. March saw the recruitment
of CyberState and Jerry in Norway. We wouldn't see a new Rebels production
until after the middle of the year, when their new danish recruitment Fresh
Prince secured them a winning 64k intro at the South Sealand Party. The only
other release this year was the norwegian section's "Chip Nostalgia". In
august, danish musician Vocal (Andre Greve, 03/94-) was kicked, after he
bought a pc, and no contact had been made in months. Swoop continued to lead
the group throughout the year.
1997 - Early this year, swedes Klorathy (code music), Krustur (code), Loop
(gfx) and Payday (swap sys) all joined from Ram Jam, following an internal
fight in that group. Danish graphician, musician and also eventually sysop
Bird (new 01/96-) joined Scoopex in april to work with his friend Boogeyman.
For a while in 96, Bird also ran the board 'ELEKTRIK CAFE'.
Swedish coder Lussar'n (ex Medicine, new early94-) left Rebels after about
a year of scene inactivity and joined Craze late 96.
Red Cheese joined Passion late 95.
Germans Zulu and Grey (code, ex DCS, new 94-95), Excess (raytrace, 04/94-
95) and Cueball (code raytrace, 04/94-95) all left for Essence (ROM5).
Zulu & Grey came 3rd in the music competition at The Party 1994 with "A
Kind of Love", but actually, they didn't compose the tune at all, it was
just delivered by them for their friend Chromag, who couldn't attend :)
German swapper Ghandy (09-10/94) joined Bonzai Brothers (ROM4).
Danish coder Ozone (03-10/94) is now only in the PC division (ROM3).
German musician Mel'o'Dee (Heiko Klueh, 09-10/94) was asked to leave along
with the others in the cleanup specified below. After that, he chose to
leave the scene. He is now composing music professionally, trying to earn
some money that way.
A major clean-up was performed, reducing the amount of members from 40 to
25. Among the people that had to leave were Mr.Magoo (Nicki K. Jensen, den
code, old handle Xariun, 03-10/94), Mr.Orion (Kennet Bendixen, den
modemorg, new 09-10/94), Weird Dream (Lars Schmidt, den swap trade, ex
Angels new, new early94, 02-10/94), Voyager (usa sysop 'FASTRAX', new 09-
10/94), Snow Queen (usa sysop 'FASTRAX', new 09-10/94), Raist (Jakob
Termansen, den ascii swap trade, new 09-10/94), Ring Ring (Roland
Waterweg, hol modem, new 10/94), Smoke (Bruno Nielsen, den gfx, 03/94-),
Raven and Morrow (ROM3^UPS10). Musician Morrow was later in C-Lous, before
rejoining with Some1 in 1997.

review: There's a lot of shading and mapping here, but not much else.
There's phong, bump, texture, env... How about something new, people?
At least it's competently put together.
The accompanying text file mentions it needs 020+ and 4MB of fastmem,
but makes no mention of AGA or ECS... But if it needed AGA there would be
no point in demanding 020+ now would there? [glenn]
