Underappreciated gems/Toot your own horn!

As suggested over on Back after 35 years, which "mega" demos will blow my socks off!! by Frostbyte -
"Lots of fantastic productions that, for whatever reason, went totally under the radar and have just one or two votes, thus not making it into any lists."

Post a link to any production that you think deserves more praise here.
Also feel free to shamelessly promote your own work.

Supercool, most demos here I haven't even heard about! Thanks all for sharing the hidden gems. I'll use these to treat the post-X blues I'll inevitably have a week from now. :)

A small contribution to this list: I've watched Triad's Lucy at least a few dozen times. Sublime soundtrack by Mitch & Dane and Twoflower, very simply yet effectively paired with the visuals. A fine example where sum is greater than the parts. One of those little (and perhaps little-known) feelgood prods one needs a dose of every now and then.

Some kind of dirty self-promo I suppose, but I think Doc Science deserves some props for the onefilers that he programs - cramming in lots of cool stuff while keeping a brisk pace!

As for onefilers (and tooting my own horn), the demo images in Transwarp V0.64 contain my faves. Some of them are probably underrated. =)

Don't let the simplistic logo put you off, load up Wir sind die Nacht and turn it up LOUD. 8.5 seconds of 8KHz samples crammed into a 16KB intro, sequenced into a killer track based on one of Covenant's finest.
