- Dynamic Duo — Germany, founded 1985
Rated 9.6/10 on CSDb and ranked #3 on intros.c64.org, Dynamic Duo's first crack intro is silent — no SID tune — and delivers its impact entirely through visuals. Flash, whose real name Henning Leise is confirmed on Doc Snyder's page, coded the intro for this small German group founded in 1985. CSDb credits Jon Hare for the charset. The scrolltext greets Headbanger, Eagle Soft Inc., Starforce, Ratt, Stoat, Master, Radwar, Syntax 2001 and D.C.S., and identifies the copy as "a preview copy so the finished version may differ," delivered by "the silent service." A Hugi #37 interview with GRX and Zonbie of PandaCube touches on the group's place in scene history, and Freddie's Recollection interview on atlantis-prophecy.org discusses the same era. The intro sits alongside #2 Fairlight as one of the foundational mid-1980s crack intros that shaped everything that followed.
