Byterapers ((B))

- When best is not good enough!
- A Pain in your arse!

AKA:
Byterapers Inc.

Founded by :
Grendel, Kasper & Professor Fate in 1986

Group Types :
Demo Group, Cracker Group

Base Country :
Finland

Website :
http://www.byterapers.scene.org/

Trivia :
Had The Action Force as a subgroup in 1988.
Also, The Zaints got assimilated into (B) during summer of 1989 and worked under the name Zaints/Byterapers. 23 of the 25 members from Zaints were kicked out shortly after during a party in Sweden.

Contex and Byterapers planned to make a co-op 07 or 08/1989 (when Coop-Intro was made, but never released - it sneaked out anyhow, though). The co-operation was almost born and announced to the world. At the end the result was Rockstar, Servant and Python joining Contex. (Source: Flex/Contex)

Had The Wolf Squad as a subgroup according to Delta Intro.
Missing member according to the same release: The Boss.

Apparently missing member called S.B.T (or SBT). He's been greeted in many Finnish intros/demos from early 1988. Could it be this SBT ? He joined ZCS in 04/1988. Maybe he was a (B) member before that...?

In Metalpower Janttu says that they ( Rising Power ) were members of (B) from 12/87 to 03/88.
