CCA - ZX Spectrum 48k - 128k - Demoscene - The Spectrum

The ZX Spectrum demoscene is a vibrant and creative community dedicated to producing demos-short, real-time audiovisual presentations-on the ZX Spectrum, a classic 8-bit home computer released in 1982 by Sinclair Research. The demoscene emerged in the 1980s and has continued to thrive, showcasing the technical and artistic skills of its members.
These were played on the new "The Spectrum" from Retro Games.

This is some dark wizardry sh..t..... If i saw it on my Timex 2048 I would have dropped dead.

Blows me away this computer is so cool!

Watching some of my demos it seems the The Spectrum's AY hardware envelopes sound emulation isn't perfect at all 🤷‍♀

[@coffeecuparcade]

It's doing a pretty good job for a version 1 of the device. I can't wait for some firmware updates!

Would you be willing to upload these in tap file format to, say, the internet archive? I would love to have these to load into my emulator. The reason for the tap file Format is I love the tape loading music, especially on a 128k programme. Thanks.

[@coffeecuparcade]

They are all already on the internet so go get em!

[@NickHobbs]

Can someone help me out here? What am I looking at? The music at the start wasn't from the speccy - the graphics at the start weren't from the speccy, and I'm now 7 minutes in looking at the vectors - there's NO way the speccy 48K did that??!?

The opening music has been the opening of our streams on Twitch for a long time. It is a SID track from a C64 game. The loading bars at the beginning are real, from a ZX Spectrum game called Mega Manic Mulholland, and ALL of the demos can and do play just fine on original hardware, of which I have as well. This is the same memory card I use with my DIVMMC on my 48K Spectrum and 128K Spectrum +2. Now with all that aside, did you enjoy it?
