They did a few releases in cooperation with Angels and Defjam. I guess when three of their crackers (N.O.M.A.D, Mr.E and I.B.M) and one important sysop (Scott, DULCET TONES) joined Angels (which was one of the groups they were in cooperation with) late 1990 it was all pretty much over. Scottish supplier Action Man left to help form Crystal. There is no reason to believe there is any link between the old and the new Genesis. Genesis [new] ------------- Genesis was a demo group.

Goonies, The (-1992) -------------------- Goonies were a danish-based cracking group, but with members in other countries as well.
