Ambient Amiga Demo?

Unread post by Zacpod »

So I'm a huge fan of Swinth for the C64. Will quite happily leave it on in the background while I work on other stuff.
Nice visuals and non-intrusive music.

Wondering if there are any similar demos for the Amiga?
I've looked at a bunch, but they all seem oversoaked in ego.
Looking for something with good music, and pretty graphics, but without any scrollers or text.
Basically, a demo that says "look what this computer can do!" without saying "Look what I made this computer do, I'm so amazing and cool!"

The original Amiga demo with the bouncing ball comes close - as does the NewTek demo.
However the first lacks music and the latter is clearly advertising...

Not ambient but Jesus On E's always stood out for me as a great demo on the Amiga. Full version is on YouTube.

Just watched this via 75mhz 060, very impressive. Great texture work.
It says it needs an FPU so sounds like it won't work on MiSTer.

It’s not the best demo for showing off the capabilities of the machine or its developer, but I’ve always liked “brainstate-in-a-box”. It fits your description quite well.
