here is a little Abyss History:
USA> Changeling (code, 12/87-02/88), Doppleganger (crack, 01-02/88),
Jimmy Z (sysop ABYSS HQ, 88), Longshot (import, 01-02/88), Raster
Blaster (code, new 01-02/88), The Last Dragon (code import, 88), The
Sorcerer (import, 88), Whiplash (01-02/88).
Boards; THE CONCENTRATION CAMP (usa, 01/88).
Abyss was an usa-based demo and cracking group.
1989 - Toad and Mr.Stack (both ex Galaxy) left for Paramount in december,
after a brief stay.
Hardcore (1988, 05.01, File).
code: Changeling, gfx: see review, music: see review.
review: What we have here is a six-part demo, entirely done by The
Changeling. The graphics and music are all ripped, from games like IK+,
Test Drive, Project: Stealth Fighter, Commando and Rampart. As you might
expect, this doesn't offer a lot in terms of variation or fabulous
graphics, but comes across as an early, fair demo. No frills, though.
Raster Blaster was welcomed as a member in a part dated 04.01-88.

Hardrock (1988, File, 3 parts).
code: Raster Blaster, gfx: uncredited, ripped, music: ripped.
review: Though technically a demo, Abyss still persist in calling this a
'music selector' due to the high amount of ripped music; none of which is
credited. Design is nothing special, just average, and so is the code.
