About Us

BRAINWAVE is a demoscene crew from Yoshkar-Ola, Mari El Republic, Russia. Founded in 1995 as SV-Soft, renamed to STar Group shortly after, and became Brainwave in late 1997.

Also known as BW, BWT, Brainwave Team, and Brainwave Tracks. We write demos, intros, sizecoding entries, cracktros, musicdisks and more — primarily on the ZX Spectrum, but also on PC, GBA, MS-DOS, and Linux.

Subgroup of X Project and Prestige. Organizers of the Antique Toy 2002 online demoparty.
