- «as»«c7»Depth is a group which got founded in Denmark back in July 1993. It's actually
- a result of two totally unknown and unproductive groups joining forces.
- Those two groups were CURE consisting of Curt Cool, Gismoduck and Folcka,
- and the crew CONIAC with Quedax and Nightsight. Together these 5 guys
- started a group which we all should get to know later on, as «c6»DEPTH!«»

- people as in the previous issue.«»
- «»
- This was the first year of productivity from the new group Depth. And
- already at this stage the group had been noticed by other sceners. Not
- mainly because of their productions, but because of their weird behaviour
- at various parties. I remember them at one party (The Gathering 94 or The
- Party 94) running around in doctors clothes plain crazy.«»
- «»
- Depth also began to get members in alot of various countries, and still
- today they have members in countries such as Denmark, Norway
- Finland and England I think. In the past they've also had members in some
- other countries, like in Poland and Sweden for instance.«»

- «as»«c7»The next years Depth released quite many productions really. They created
- an intro simply called «c6»Weird «c7»at the South Sealand party in coop with IRIS.
- It was done by Elohim and Ib. Depth also did a «c6»4k
- intro «c7»in August 1995 done by Paithan for the code and Curt Cool for the

- Cool. And last, they released the 4k intro called «c6»Str8. «c7»It was coded by
- Cytron, music by Cytron and gfx by Ib. They also managed to release yet
- another issue of the «c6»EuroChart «c7»this month. It was issue 37.«»
- «»
- In July the follow up to Kryptonite was released, it was the «c6»Kryptonite II
- «c7»40k intro released at the Scene Meeting. Both the code and music was done
- by Kollaps.«»
- «»
- In August the last issue of the «c6»EuroChart «c7»entirely done by Depth was made.
- It was issue 38.«»
- «»
- At the end of the year, in December, «c6»Depth in coop with IRIS, «c7»released
- issue 39 of the «c6»EuroChart.«»
- «»
- «c7»In the very beginning of the new millenium, Depth released an intro called
- Lonely. Cytron created it totally by himself.«»
- «»
- In April yet another issue of the «c6»EuroChart «c7»in cooperation with IRIS got
- released. It was issue 40. The «c6»EuroChart «c7»issue 41 got released in the
- autumn that year.«»
- «»
- Last year, 2001, Depth in coop with IRIS released «c6»EuroChart «c7»issue 42 in
- February. This is actually the last real coop issue with IRIS, as Depth
- didn't contribute in issue 43. Nevertheless, issue 43 released in July this
- year is consided to be the «c6»last issue «c7»under the Depth & IRIS label
- together. The next issue suppose to be only done by IRIS, and will probably
- be released in a few days.«»
- «»
- At the Trsac 3 party in October Depth in coop with Haujobb and TRSI,
- released the demo called «c6»Bizzare Love Triangle. «c7»At the same party it was
- also reported that Depth released a «c6»musicpack «c7»in THX format done by Cytron
- (code), Ib (graphics) and I guess we all know which members who did the
- music, hehe... Anyway, I haven't managed to get hold of this production
- yet. At the Kindergarden party in November, Depth released a small production
- (dentro) named «c6»Arcane Lugter. «c7»It was coded by Cytron and Sprocket did some
- gfx. I can't really tell you anything about this production as it crashes
- on my machine. In any case, Arcane Lugter was also the last
- production so far that I know of from Depth.«»
- «»
- «ac»«c5»WHAT NOW DEPTH?«»
- «»
- «as»«c7»What's the future of Depth now? They've been involved with amazingly 16
- issues of the EuroChart and released LOTS of intros & demos in the past.
- The latest time the group has turned more inactive though, and now last the
- famous chartmag EuroChart is no longer under their label either. The main
- persons behind Depth the latest years, like «c6»Curt Cool and Cytron «c7»are quite
- busy with many other things. Curt Cool is studying much (read: partying),
- and Cytron has got himself a more than well-paid job. In the beginning of
- 2002 Depth also kicked a few members for inactivity (Bucko and Rolex).
- Despite if this, Depth still have a few productionplans. A few days ago a
- new coder named «c6»Skurk «c7»joined in Norway, and he's already working on
- something. It also seems like Depth
- plan to release (more) issues of their new musicpack in THX format.
- I'm sure we'll get to see many more crazy productions from them in the
- future.«»
- «»
- For those that haven't seen the productions mentioned here, try to get your
- hands on them. Mostly they're «c6»quite weird. «c7»Therefore it's not the usual
- kind of style you've seen so many times before done by other groups.«»
- «»
- Hopefully we'll see many more productions from this «c6»crazy gang! «c7»Good
- luck to you all.«»
