awwh, I thought this was going to be about keygens and the demoscene music that came with. That was definite an era of the old web.

To mitigate your disappointment you could visit the “Keygen Church” by Master Boot Record (a mix of metal, chiptune and ASCII + pixel art):

Good track, great band, I saw them live the other month. Such an fantastic show.

CONFIG.SYS is one of my favs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CQq0jnie5U -- they also have a BBS and IRC network which was also cool.

Also a fan here, although I never had the chance to see them live. I bought a tapes (even if I don’t own a tape player) just because of the gorgeous design…!

Only related by name, IOSYS is one of my favorites due to their catchy Touhou Project derivative music and funny Flash videos.

Ha, I had the same thought. I recently watched this video which you might find interesting (mostly re: demoscene): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roBkg-iPrbw
