"HOW'S FRANCE?"

----------------------------------------
this report about the FRENCH scene was
written by ALF from VANITY.
i hope you will enjoy it and know much
more about france after reading it...

----------------------------------------
some years ago there were alot of french
cracking groups like:YANKEES,OPALE,
ATOM,BABYGANG,TRANSCOM,etc...
but most died years after tears and
now there are only two groups left,
namely: BABYGANG and TRANSCOM.
but BABYGANG doesn't release many
cracks and TRANSCOM is also a BELGIAN
group. the most wellknown member of
tcom is certainly UNKNOW,the famous
cracker,who's now 52 YEARS old!
everybody can remember the war between
BABYGANG and TRANSCOM,around 1989,
(when BYG released "PRISE DE TETE")
but it's just an old story now.
recently BABYGANG released their last
demo called "HEXAGONE" which included
"PRISE DE TETE 2".
TRANSCOM got some problems after their
coop with X-RAY split up,but all seems
ok now.
around those two groups there's no-one
else for cracking.
hopefully there're more demo groups:
ZIG-ZAG,TWI,IONIX DESIGN and a new one
called EXIT!
but the quality of their products is
very low,except for IONIX DESIGN (who
released as first demo: GOLDEN MIX)
this group will release their new demo
soon,and at this moment we will judge
their work right.
i don't speak about all the lame SWAP
GROUPS,they're too much and too boring
to be considerate as real "groups".
but i must tell you about a particular
case: many ex-members of french groups
joined FOREIGN and ELITE groups.
for example SODIUM/ATOM joined F4CG,
TOMAHAWK joined PADUA after the death
of OPALE,JITY/GENESIS was before in
TCOM and BABYGANG and myself,i was in
BABYGANG before joining VANITY.
all those guys were certainly bored by
the french groups and so decided to
join strong foreign groups.
now there's a special situation in
france:everybody is looking away,the
swapping between french is not very
active/fast..., and there's too few
ELITE and "PROFESSIONAL" guys!
but the AMIGA is more wellknown than
the C64,and many dudes left the C64
and are now very active on AMIGA.
even if some guys come back on C64,
like YANKEES,it's not enough.
hopefully there's still some cool
freaks...
but for how long?

that's all!
i'm waiting for your reactions!
