Group History

Though the group was never technically dead, we can certainly speak of a first and second generation for Dual Crew Shining (DCS). Their second generation was initiated in 1997, when the likes of Shape starting releasing product for the amiga again, and first-class product too at that!

1997
Shape released the 64k intro "Kala" [10/97] at Demolition III, reaching fourth position in the competition. This was followed with another intro at The Party 97, but "Blues" [12/97] was only rewarded with a sad 13th position.
1998
They reached second place at The Gathering 98 in april with "Nebula" [04/98], only beaten by their fellow finns in Mellow Chips! Deetsay and B coded the intro "A Little Intro At Assembly 98" [08/98] in two days before the competition, and came 7th in the 64k intro competition.
1999
In march, a large reorganizing took place, where several inactive members were kicked and new ones were allowed to join; Relief was kicked, and so there are no more DCS members in Denmark; finnish trader Zeff was kicked; Finnish graphician Los joined, and polish swappers Blaze and Evan were allowed to join.
