    5 Star Review  What an amazing trip down memory lane. I was simultaneously reading and going to Youtube/Soundcloud to find all the Demo's and amazing music from that time period. Both books are well worth getting if you were at all involved in the Demo scene or if you just loved the productions.

  • 5 Star Review  I really enjoyed volume 1 and volume 2 is great too. I backed through Indiegogo and got the extra postcards, which look really nice. And the book itself is really well made, with the handy QR codes and so many great interviews with the sceners. It gives a really good flavour of how the Amiga demoscene was developing and making use of the new AGA hardware. Top work.

    5 Star Review  The editing and layout of the book are of very high quality. The large number of images and logos is impressive, highly diverse, and very original. It evokes nostalgia for past eras and serves as an excellent source of inspiration, especially when compared to the bland and soulless type design often seen nowadays.

    5 Star Review  A jewel that brings back memories of my youth, the copy parties, the 68000, RSI, KEFRENS, REBELS, SCOOPEX... Thank you for these rediscovered moments, engraved forever in my heart.

    5 Star Review  I received my books after a rather longer than expected shipping delay but as soon as I unpacked my order of all 4 available books - all worries were gone:
    - Pristine Quality
    - Beautifully done and more-than-awesome layout
    - Packaged professionally, not a single dent in any of the books

    I'm in awe at the pure beauty of these books and it's wonderful content. For the asked price, this is beyond anyone's expectations!
    Don't think too long, put them in the basket and buy them - you won't regret!

  • 5 Star Review  I hesitated to buy these books for a long time, but in the end I didn't regret it. I grew up with the Amiga and the demo scene was an important part of my youth (I'm almost 50 now). Reading the book and watching the corresponding demos on YouTube at the same time gave me a lot of great dejavu. The background information on the respective programmers, graphic designers and musicians is also very interesting, although there could have been a little more of it. I bought the first two parts together and am looking forward to the third part being released.

    5 Star Review  Livre magnifique, comme les autres ouvrages. Je suis déjà impatient de voir le prochain livre que les Editions64k vont sortir, en tout si ça reste dans le thème du rétrogaming je serais preneur, vous pouvez compter sur moi 👍🏻👍🏻 PS: j’espère qu’il y aura une version numérique PDF.
