Orange Juice (also known as OJ) is a website, known as the self-proclaimed "demoscene information center". It was (and by some, still is) regarded as the central website for demoscene related data about demoparties, demosceners, demogroups and other events.

OJ sports a historical importance: it was the first demoscene-related portal on the Internet, launched 5th April, 1997 by Yes and Chandra. It's name comes from ANSI artist Bisounours / Tiny Toons, who is quoted saying that "it sounds better than Apple Juice".

OJ is a sponsor of Nectarine demoscene web radio, as it runs from the same server.

The site has been offline since September 2006 due to a server crash.
