Group History

Depth was formed in late 1993 by Curt Cool as a Danish demo group, and their first production was "Cool Tunes #1" [03/94]. During the year they released some other small productions, as well as many issues of their pack "Under the Surface" (01-99).

1996

At The Party 6, they gave the scene what they called a "christmas present", and revived the official "Eurochart", with Cytron as the third main editor of the prestigious chart through history. This is probably what most people think of when you say 'Depth'. Bakerman's board was closed for a while, then reopened late 96.

1997

Artwork's "Generation #24" [04/97] reported that swedes Pumper (trade) and Slurry (sysop, both new 06/96) were kicked, that swedish Legionary/Weird (code) joined, that danish LPN (gfx raytrace) left the scene, that norwegian The Paranoid rejoined the scene, and that Sanctum renamed to Nemo Q.

• Swedish coders Pigeon (10/97) and Omen both left for Craze late97/early98.
• Swedish swapper, trader and sysop Schindler ('MOTION ONE', new 06/96-) left the scene late 97.
• Polish graphician Insert (ex Amnesty, new 06/96) left for Turnips late 96.
• Polish graphician Rappid (doublememb Genetic, new 06/96) left for Erotic Design late 96.
• Danish graphician and swapper Chelsea stopped swapping, and was kicked shortly after late 96.
• German swapper IRO (Bastian Effertz, ex Riot, doublememb Rave Network Overscan, new late95) was kicked, after failing to keep contact late 96.
• Polish swapper Klaf left for Appendix and Scalaris 06/96.
• Norwegian musician The Surge (also sysop) left 06/96.
• Swapper and ascii'er Draw left 06/96.
• Robson joined Anadune 06/96.
• Billy joined Mystic 06/96.
• Reval joined Infect.
• The entire group Hangover joined.

Review

First of all, let me just mention that this is the first issue of the 'new' EuroChart I saw. Right from the start, I loved the new look and concept! The screenshots, the information, the graphical statistics... This is the way to do things! However, while the concept is great, the execution leaves a few things to be desired... some of the information is missing crucial bits here and there! Perhaps I need to send Cytron a copy of Scenery to avoid mistakes in the future ;) Having said that, I guess I put a lot more weight on these things than the average scener would... The panel graphics are a little unusual, not to mention that they're very very good! Big, clear gadgets leave you in no confusion as to where to click. The intro picture by Zack, and the numerous clip arts leave a little to be desired, 'tho...
As far as the editorial content of the EuroChart goes, well... it was never intended to be a mag! The best part is also the most important one; the charts! The code follows the new norm, in that it is multitasking... which is a feature I absolutely love. All mags should multitask! It sure makes reviewing them a lot more comfortable for me :) There really is no good reason not to download the EuroChart... It doesn't really matter if you don't like the cliparts, or you think the interviews in the magpart really should be somewhere else... It's the charts that matter, and the EuroCharts are the original ones...the real McCoy. Get this because Depth put a lot of work down in it, and do a good job. [glenn]

Review

Nice graphics by Raven introduce us to this edition of EC. The title picture is of a crouching naked woman, but the compositions doesn't look all right... Anyway, the rest of the design is clear and concise. As mentioned in my review of the last issue, the code is very good. System friendly (multitasks), and user friendly at the same time :) The other two sections, apart from the charts, are also well laid out this time. The gallery is mostly pictures of sceners drinking at parties ;) I did like the old Crusaders design for this part better, with two pics a page, but... The magpart also has good design, with backgrounds that doesn't interfere with the text. Color use is nicely relaxed. [glenn]

Now this is more like it! This cool little intro throws quite a few good effects at the casual viewer, including lightdots, shadebob cluster (!) and some well cool bump and texture mapping! [glenn]
