Released on 7 April 1989, this DCS intro features Laxity's (Thomas E. Petersen) "Galaxylogo" -- preserved in the HVSC. Curiously, CSDb lists the release under X-Ray's group ID rather than DCS's own, suggesting a data attribution issue or a cooperative release between the British DCS and the German X-Ray. No coder or graphics credits are recorded. Doc Snyder's page documents this as DCS's third intro, with scrolltext listing group rankings that mention Illusion, Cosmos, GP, Fire Eagle, and many others -- a snapshot of the competitive hierarchy as perceived by the group in mid-1989. The scrolltext credits Mik of DCS for the crack of "Treble Champions" on 12 August 1989. Doughnut Cracking Service has multiple entries across the ranking, including #53 DCS-06 and #83 DCS-08. Laxity's music appearing in both British and German groups reinforces his status as the most widely distributed SID composer of the era.
