Well clearly not at a large scale, but the demoscene was a widespread phenomenon distributed globally where Internet was available. It was a Canadian friend who introduced me to them.

yes the website was called bit-slap, but it doesn't work anymore.. i downloaded and the mods, xms and sids from there though on my old lapotp

noodi10 (17:01:37)
really? in the US? i feel like mods weren't as known there, or am i mistaken

then i just went down the rabbithole. i already had interest in it from playing pokemon, super mario land and bros, etc. but i didn't know people made it for any other purpose other than videogames

Believe it or not, I first listened to mods recorded on cassette tapes in my car with a friend around 1996 or 1997.

That's interesting.

i heard chiptune in the videogame VVVVVV, loved it so much and talked to my online friends about it, who showed me this adobe flash website with demoscene tracks on it

noodi10 (16:57:40)
