- Beastie Boys -- Germany, founded July 1987
Crack intro #26 from the Beastie Boys, a prolific German cracking group named after the American hip-hop act -- a common practice in the 1980s C64 scene. Founded in July 1987, the group maintained a core roster of The Syndicate (Sascha), Accept, Captain Future, Mr. Fiend, Profi, and Electro, all based across West German cities including Frankfurt, Munich, and Bremen. No CSDb data was retrieved for this specific release, but Doc Snyder's page documents numerous Beastie Boys intros with credits spanning coders Profi, The Syndicate, Ultimax, Marc, Axiom, and The Mercenary Cracker. Musicians featured across their catalogue include David Whittaker, Jeroen Tel, Ben Daglish, Red (Jeroen Kimmel), and Laxity (Thomas Petersen). The group's scrolltexts consistently list PLK postal box addresses, reflecting the era's mail-trading networks. Other ranked Beastie Boys entries include #16 BB-02 and #35 BB-10 among many others. Twenty-six numbered intros confirms extraordinary output across their active period.
