Camelot was born early 1991 by Sphinx, Glasnost and The Guardian from Light, and Rex from Laser. They originally had one swedish member (The Guardian aka TGD), but after a small time were 100% danish, and remained that way as far as I know... Apparently TGD (crack) went to Spain for 1.5 years and remained a sleeping or inactive member. 1993 - Danish Wave joined from Vision in may. Graphician Black Samurai joined from Wrath Designs at the TCC 93 party at the end of may. Camel Park (Demo).

The unusual design helps the mag stand out from the crowd. [glenn] Sky High #16 (1995, Diskmag). Sky High #17 (1995, .06, Diskmag). Sky High #18 (1995, 01.09, Diskmag). INT - code: Raz, gfx: Biz Kid, music: JCH (?). MAG - code: Raz, gfx: Biz Kid, music: "Lost Lust" by Kristian Røstøen/ Blues Muz'/Shape, "Stomping Bass" by TMG/Fatum, "Andagt I Rummet" by Duck LaRock/Camelot, editor: Biz Kid. review: SH is a really nice mag, with an unusual design. It looks a little like a simplified Amiga Workbench 1.3, and works remarkably well, once you figure it out! There is no music while in this, the text choice menu, the music you select (also on this menu) starts once you start reading an article. The article reading part is also good, with a horizontal scrolling textreader with smooth scrolling and two different font sizes. The intro preceding the mag is also nicely different, though they could perhaps have dropped the 'logo' at the top of the screen. All music in the mag is exclusive. Another nice function of this mag is the 'extras' section, which this time features an old intro (by Cheyens), plus the winners of the graphics and music competitions from the recent 4x4 party! The editorial content of the mag is demo oriented, with very little material focusing on the illegal part of the scene. There are the usual news, reviews and interviews, though the mag also tries to be different with some original ideas, like the "Vision" part. Overall, this is a pretty good mag, spanning two disksides, with quite a bit of material to read. Go gettit! :) [glenn] Sky High #19 (1995, late, Diskmag). Sky High #20 (1996, 16.01, Diskmag). IN1 - code: Nucleus/Tempest, gfx: Vic/Camelot (logo), music: "Time For Sex" by Metal/Vibrants/Camelot/Avantgarde. IN2 - code: Druid/Agony Design/Avantgarde, gfx: Jetan/Agony Design (fonts, logo), music: Drax/Vibrants (note: Done in 1990). MAG - code: Raz, Glasnost (loader, packer), gfx: Electric/Extend (logo), Cupid/Avantgarde (sprite), Biz Kid, music: "Acrobat" by Mitch & Dane/CyberZound Productions, "Mor Lugter" by Jeff/Camelot/CyberZound Productions, "Aqualite" by Fanta/Oxyron/Bass, "Media & Pain" by Cubehead/ex Resource, editor: Biz Kid. review: Camelot have gone nicely overboard with their 20th issue (released on the date of their third anniversary), doing 3 full disksides! Not one - oh no - but two intros open the mag, which also has a good editorial content. This time they present interviews with some pretty interesting persons frm the scene; people like TTS/Oxyron, Chris Huelsbeck and JCH/ Vibrants should be familiar to most of you I guess ;) Coupled with their usual high editorial standard this is another great issue of SH. What more is there to say? Nada. [glenn]
