  Jul Det' Cool (1993, 28.12, Demo).
  21st in The Party 93 demo competition.


Jam (1993-)
-----------
FRA> Mad (Madelon Olivier, founder org).

Jam was formed early 1993 as a French group.


Jesters
-------
ENG> Accel (music, 92), , Death, FX (founder), Lord Flight (founder),
     Merlin, Phreak (founder gfx, 92), Sim (code, 92).
???> Uncle Len (ex Archaos).

Jesters is an English demo group formed by Phreak, FX and Lord Flight from
another English group, Destiny.

  Dentro (1992, early, ECS Intro).
  code: Sim, gfx: Phreak, music: Accel.


Jetset [old] (1991-1991)
------------------------
The original Jetset was born in march 93 (after Pussy changed their name to
Jetset at the RAF conference), and was one of the biggest Dutch groups in
their prime, but unfortunately died later in the year. They were later
reborn as a Skid Row subgroup, producing their intros and demos.
  Jayce made music for the famous dutch Axis trackmo "Unknown Territory",
and is also in the new Jetset.

Major-Midi joined Energy.
The Swedish division joined Vogue mid 91.


Jetset [new] (1992-1996)
------------------------
N-L> Apache (sysop 'BLACK BOX' WHQ), Dem, Seck-4 (mainorg gfx, 01/93), The
     Boss (sysop 'CROSSED BONES'), Vortex (code, ex Scoopex, new early93).
BEL> Maddy (sysop 'METAL IMPACT', ex Fusion).
GER> Nose (gfx, ex Alcatraz, 94), Oli (ex Paradise), Phex (swap, ex
     Alcatraz, old handle Stearo), Sam (music, ex Paradise, 94), Skull
     (swap, ex Misery/Noxious, late93).
SWE> Striker (sysop 'FLASHTRADE').
FIN> Gamma (gfx music, ex Sonic).
BAH> Psychlop (trade), Quantum (trade).
???> Coyote (ex Desire, new late92), Jeff, Murdock (ex Cyanide, new mid93).

The new Jetset was reborn late 1992, and was a Skid Row subgroup for a
while, doing the usual cracktro duties. This partnership was later dissolved
(likely sometime in 1993), and Jetset continued as a demogroup in their own
right.
  1993 - The musicdisk "Overload 2" [01/93] won the demo competition at the
Holand is OK party in january, bringing the new year to a great start for
the group!
  1994 - German coder Raw Style (ex Alcatraz, 94) left to join Complex late
this year.
  1996 - Finally Jetset died late this year, when the remaining Dutch
members - Bullock (gfx), Eros (gfx), Jayce (music), Red Dwarf (code) and
Timeless (music) - fusioned into the group Royal.

Dutchmen Jay-One (gfx) and Steroid (swap, both ex Freestyle) both left to
  join the new Axis.
German swappper Dark (ex Noxious, doublememb Skid Row) left to join TRSI.
Dutch coder Magician Lord and British musician Hollywood (both ex
   Freestyle, 93) left to join Movement.
Dutchmen IKillr (01/93), Eswat (01/93) and Timeless joined Paradox. News in
  RAW6, and confirmed in the "Black Box" demo. Timeless was later back in
  Jetset, and was one of the members who later went on to Royal.
Storm (ex Godfather/Spaceballs) joined DCS.

  Black Box (ECS Trackmo).
  code: Magician Lord, gfx: Seck-4, Eswat, IKillr, music: Hollywood.
  Review: More of a slideshow than a demo, really, but not without
  entertainment value. The graphics are all in the rather unique Jetset
  style, i.e. graffitti. The music is a sort of old-style house, and it's
  certainly NOT one of Hollywood's strongest tunes. All in all? It does the
  job it was intended to, I suppose, and some of the logos are cool...
  I'd give it 5 out of 10.
    There is absolutely no indication anywhere as to the release date of
  this demo... Anyone? [glenn]

  an average Jetset demo in the usual graffitti style...


Jetspeed

Jetspeed joined forces with the cooperation group Triangle, and
participated in the making of a few of their demos.

Lots of the Swedes were in Suburban Base earlier/later... Is Danish coder
Ricky the same guy that coded some late The Silents DK demos?

Swedish graphician and organizer MRK doublejoined Subspace, and later
  surfaced as a member of Sunshine Productions.
Musician Sid (ex Razor 1911 new, 95) left the scene to pursue a
  professional music career. Chorus will continue to compose on his own.
  Sid contributed to the musicdisk "Crossroads" [95].
Dane Illusion joined Iris.

Joker
-----
POL> Dalthon (code, 11/96).

  Frank Frazetta part 4 (1995, 30.04, OCS 64k Intro).
  code/gfx: Dalthon, music: Peters.
  Released for the Eastern Conference 1995 64k intro competition.
  review: Don't know how classify this strange production. From one side it
  looks like non standard intro but from second hand it's a mini slideshow
  for sure! Everything start with emulation of old zx-spectrum's boot
  sequence. We can see a typical basic screen and somebody is listing dir,
  after while choses a Frank4.exe file and launchs it. Joker's logo and nice
  chip music appear. Here follow 8 grayscaled (16 col.) pictures, 3 in hi-
  res laced and 5 in low-res resolution. Wonderful. When all graphics are
  showed a standard choose menu becomes visible and under it scroller starts
  to flow. Operating by mouse you're able to watch every picture one more
  time.
    Dalthon is known for his talent of making short but great executables
  and as we see "Frank Frazetta" is a good example. Production preffered to
  all "long time ago..." maniacs. [kempy]

  Chunky Blitter (1996, 10.11, ECS 4k Intro).
  code: Dalthon, gfx: none, music: n/a.
  5th in the Gravity 96 4k intro competition.
  review: We watch the flashing 'please wait' text for a while, before
  being catapulted into a world of fractal based effects. The intro looks
  quite good, using a sort of smoothing effect that doesn't retract too
  much from the overall impression. The intro also contains quite a lot
  more than I expected it to; it pumped out at least three good effect
  variations after I was convinced the show was over. Then, after it's
  all done, and the coder credit appears, a small tune is played! It's a
  bit of a mystery why Dalthon didn't play the tune during the intro...
  The text file that comes with this is in Polish. [glenn]

  review: I thought I liked this, based on viewing and not least listening
  to the main part for a little while. So I pressed the left mouse button
  to write a favourable review...and quickly found there was a small extra
  part, announcing some BBS numbers. And playing a THX rendition of the
  Bubble Bobble theme. One of my favourite games. Containing one of my
  favourite tunes. Do I need to draw you a picture? NOSTALGIA HEAVEN!
    Some further investigation reveals that this one was probably written
  using AMOS! No wonder it's ECS then... It's their first ever intro.

  review: Hmmm.... =) This is actually far from the worst Jormas intro I've
  seen, actually it's pretty cool. It features some nice design ideas, if
  not exactly mindblowing coding. Don't really know what else to say about
  it, except it's very pink and purple. Hehe. Check it for yourself.
    The full title of this intro is "ElastikDetroit TurskaPitch 62 Phonkee

  4th in the Assembly 98 64k intro competition.
  review: This, ladies and gentlemen, is actually not a bad little intro.
  They carve a style-all-of-their own, with this offbeat elektronika piece -
  both visually and audially. They choose to ride off-piste, so to say -
  with no illusions of winning the compos, but rather participating with
  style. I really like this, it's bold, brave and unafraid. Dare to be
  different - like the Jormas. They're definitely unique. [glenn]

Juliet & Case (1994-1995)
-------------------------
Two finnish friends started coding demos, and released their first
production, called "CCCP" at the Assembly 94, finishing 5th. A year passed,
and at The Assembly 95 they released "C42", which also came in fifth.
This time, though, some groups stood up and took notice of the coder duo.
They were quickly headhunted to Stellar, but soon after moved on to a more
permanent home in CNCD.

  CCCP (1994, 06.08, Demo).
  code: Juliet & Case, gfx: n/a, music: Groo/CNCD.
  5th in The Assembly 94 demo competition.

  C42 (1995, 12.08, AGA File).
  code: Juliet & Case, gfx: none, music: Groo.
  5th in The Assembly 95 demo competition.
  review: There are no graphics in C42, just 3d worlds and objects.
  There are butterflies, flowers, bees and other stuff from the real
  world emulated. The way this is put together makes it more reminiscent of
  a dark piece of video experimentation than a demo. Original, if nothing
  else. Groo's music is easily forgettable.
    This would be their last demo as independents. Please note that none of
  the effects are fullscreen, but are displayed in a more limited space in
  the centre of the screen. [glenn]

ITA> Bluelight (sysop 'ASYLUM', 91).
USA> The Ringthane (sysop 'HARPOON', 91).
???> Angeldawn (gfx, ex Possessed), Lou Van B (music, ex Abyss), Lowtec.

Jump were the producers of the "World Charts", later produced by Scoopex
after some key members (Angeldawn and others) joined that group.

Autopsy joined Model.
Swedes Alis (sysop 'ANOTHER WORLD', 91) and Frosty joined D-Mob.
Salvatore (ex Possessed) left the scene.
Cyclotron (old handle RCB, ex Surprise! Productions) joined Alpha Flight.

  World Charts #2 (1991, ECS FileChart).
  code: n/a, gfx: Angeldawn, music: "Satanic" by n/a (ProTracker MOD
  format).
  review: Well, this issue of World Charts is pretty basic. Its main asset,
  as has always been the case with this particular chartmag, is the
  graphics. The are recognizably by Angeldawn, though signed 'IB' rather
  than his standard 'AD' - perhaps an indication to his real name? _NO_
  credits are given anywhere, strangely, except a small graphic saying
  'moral support and votecollecting by Autopsy' when it starts. This means
  Autopsy was involved in the production, but likely not as a member of
  Jump. The menus are unusually enough keyboard-controlled, with the cursor
  keys and return serving to select the different chart categories. A press
  of the space bar takes us to a separate part, with board ads, and another
  press takes us back. The music is atrocious.
    The Jump boards advertised in this intro was 'HARPOON' (WHQ), 'ANOTHER
  WORLD' (EHQ) and 'ASYLUM'. [glenn]

  World Charts #3 (1991, ECS FileChart).
  code: n/a, gfx: Angeldawn, music: "Introfronty" by Dezecrator/Classic
  (ProTracker MOD format).
  review: Apart from a new (and better) introductory Jump logo, and the fact
  that most of the categories have changed, everything is identical to the
  last issue, so I will refrain from explaining it all over again.
  Dezecrator's module is wellknown, and was first used in a crack intro by
  Classic. It seems unlikely that they were given permission to use it.
  This was the last issue of World Charts under Jump; subsequent issues were
  released by Model.
    The Jump boards advertised in this intro was 'HARPOON' (WHQ), 'ANOTHER
  WORLD' (EHQ) and 'ASYLUM', just like last time. [glenn]
