As you already noticed, if you were able to read it, internet2008 is the shit. As we all have read, music blogs is where all cool people hang out these days. Netlabels are so 2007! Anyway, here are the latest additions, arranged in nonormal order.
080810 (straight up electro stuff from my three day 808+c64 mission, which is yet to continue) bababy dubub (uncomfortably hi-tech dub, but still comfortably melodic) stag3 (fonky porn music, a cover of the legendary amiga mod by an unknown person) 80megamix (amiga megamix with cheesy 80s music, not sure if this was released before?) zomschky (old 2xC64 drum’n'bass recorded back in the days when i thought 128kbps MP3 was good enough to throw away the, cough, minidisc) raveboy sidplay (rave medley, you might have heard some of the stuff before?) surf-mob-spel (short surfy snippet for something that never happened, surf’s up, hang loose, blablabla) ac2t258kbps (the 8kbps is the message!) stag3remixremix (from the times of bad timestretching, a blast from the past, a glimpse into the future) carpentras-megamix-compressed (what, another medley, it might be getting ridiculous by now) intervju fuck up boogaloo (needs no explanation, or has none. not sure)
I was never really that much part of micromusic.net, I thought. Except for the parties. But since all the idlers (and some more) seems to have stopped hanging out there, my dream has come true. I am the king. And now I have officially made my worst post to this place. The only way is up, baby!
Mazemod is an internet radio that just got online, and serves us some of the freshest Amiga music out there. (and some new fresh design by otro aswell) I made a playlist with some of my favourite Amiga tunes out there, with the thought of showcasing some different styles of Protracker music. It includes 4-mat, Skope, Shout, Qwan, Niemo, Mortimer Twang, Loonie, Heatbeat, Groo, Duz, Dune, Bruno, Bit Arts, Audiomonster, 911, XTD. So relax - it’s pretty normal music this time! Muhahahahaaaa! Now go pack yourself.
Oh, and better not miss the Amiga intro announcing the release! Killer shit from Otro+Goto80, the duo of drum’n'radio! (it is demomania! the biggest sin in the amiga nerdoscene!)
For those of you around at Malmöfestivalen August 15-22, on the last day Superdöner and Special Guests will perform a live soundtrack to the old propagandoid Russian silent movie Battleship Potemkin, whose montage work had quite an impact on movie making. And A/V propaganda. It’s free, and we promise that we will do things right enough to make it worthwhile, and wrong enough for people to see what punk is all not about! Not.
Not that this is such an intricate thing, but here it is anyway. C64. 808. Microphone. FX. BOSS distortion! 24 minutes. Noise! Defmon! Data! Beer! Lukas managed to fuck up defmon to a DEATH SCREEN. Hooray!
Today it is 080808, which means you have to do a song with an 808. Since I had a visitor from some kind of superintendent while finishing my song, the end results are not as luxurious as they should have been. Stay tuned for some more intricate C64+808 songs! Here’s a live jam:
HELLO. Back from this year’s LCP, hanging out with the C64 elite boys, trying to be friends although everybody is just there to win the compos. Hehe. Lately (as in the last years) I haven’t really been up to the challenge of making those winning songs anymore. The tunes I make at demoparties are usually a bit weirder. So bare with me..
Goto80 - Ponky my C64-song, got #3 in the competition. It’s some kind of dub-blues-rock, or something? Made on a 6581 but sounds best on 8580. The C64-emulator VICE does a pretty good job with this. Or, you can check out the ultra-sloppy remixes: MP3#1 and MP3#2.
Made music for two Amiga releases: Otro’s announcement intro for Mazemod - which is an online Amiga radio channel. (not yet really online though, hehe) And yeah, also made a quick’n'dirty module for the new DUREX release: The Message.
Me and Frantik also did a live-set that might pop up online sooner than Pat Boone. Or Bryan Adams. In the meantime you should definitely check out this youtube-clip - recorded in the middle of the first night of LCP… while you were sleeping, losers! Goto80 + Frantik - Summer of 64
Oh, I found this little video recording where me and Rune Bune play live at Microdisko in Copenhagen last November. Unfortunately you can’t see Rune’s C64-visuals as they were on another wall. Some of the photos got some of the magic though. Stu’s liveset was also filmed - here - but Computadora Feliz’s set wasn’t, unfortunately. Anyway, they were shown at Copenhagen local TV (highly recommended, btw!) around christmas aswell apparently. Merry christmas! And here’s a glimpse of the live-jam that happened aswell:
Another new genre is born: Religious Chip Rock. Check it out at labelable before it’s too late to think it’s too late. It’s C64, microphone, and reverb. And some overdubbbbing. And weird secret software from my secret contemplating dataman. As usual the philosophy is first-recording-is-best-recording.
Ok, yes. Some kind of non-chip-song-but-maybe-anyway (bleeprave style) added over at the one and only internet place in 2008 - internet2008.se … Oh, and I am not sure what happened to the design here. I blame it all on myspaceyoutube. I am sure it will change back into readable form some time again…
