Talent is a demo group based in Norway, which were born at the Razor 1911
and Imp-666 Amiga Conference (09/91). Their first ever production was
"Neverending Fantasies", released at this party.
  Though they were originally all Norwegian, also minor foreign sections
were eventually granted membership. Brainbug is still working with his old
group-pals in Alcatraz Entertainment Software, doing sound for their games.
  1994 - The entire English division - Narc (gfx), Morf, Spud (code),
Custodian (code), Hampster and Tantalus - left in february. Some of them
joined Anthrox. Djengis Khan's board 'TOWN OF TUNES' was closed in february,
likely forever.


Cloudy joined World Industries.
Original Norwegian founders Mr.Z, Necro (code, old handle Necrologic, 08/93)
  and Pensplit (gfx, 08/93, all ex Awe) all joined Banana Dezign.

  review: I can't really review this demo, since it doesn't really work on
