[ Ericade.radio news & podcasts ] [Podcast] 22. Another lazy sunday evening

Due to a heavy work load, the Saturday episode of Amiga Flashback had to be broadcast on a Sunday. This time DJ Daemon focuses on the music and selects a set of more chill tunes. The bpm varies between brisk and calm, but it’s more beautiful vibes and nice synth chords than heavy beat today.Errata:17:57 : The SSI-intro is actually a commercial demo for some upcoming SSI-games.

[Podcast] 21. Look at you, hacker!

[ Ericade.radio news & podcasts ] [Podcast] 21. Look at you, hacker!

Hackers are mythical creatures that just get in everywhere. Hacking is alas used as ersatz magic in many games and Hollywood movies. DJ Daemon tires of this and tries to find some games and movies that does this in a reasonly correct way. He uses a very generous definition of “correct”. But the suspence of disbelief is a strong force of nature. So let’s just accept this as a proper hacker story.

Playlist:
00:00 Amiga Flashback 21 – Show intro
00:54 Reptile – Peaceful journey
04:46 Amiga Flashback 21 – About todays show
05:46 KB and Reflex – Beyond The Gates

43:52 DJ Daemons talks about the movie WarGames
45:00 The Soul Stealer – Hacker’s Dream
49:30 DJ Daemon doesn’t like Matrix Revolutions, but respects its use of NMap.
50:08 Xemogasa / ske – Sapphire eyes
53:36 DJ Daemon grapples with penny shaving (who’s Penny anyway?) and salami slicing. Sounds awful but it’s actually about money fraud. It feels better now.
54:14 Nighthawk / pfs – Do the monkey!
57:27 DJ Daemon thanks you for listening and signs off
57:50 Singer/altair grns mnt – Seen an angel

Production notes:
I put some effort into writing the dialogue for this episode as I felt the prewritten episodes were more enjoyable as I could control how long I spoke and avoid "word searching" and mistakes. It was also one of the first episodes to feature speech from the games themselves.

Colophone:
"Look at you, hacker" is the first line from Shodan's infamous speech "Look at you, hacker: a pathetic creature of meat and bone, panting and sweating as you run through my corridors. How can you challenge a perfect, immortal machine?". That speech is even in the intro of the show.

When I review the hacking tropes I use names of real hackers and hacker groups. Like "I give it 9 out of 10 Fancy bears".

[Podcast] 20. All you need is love

[ Ericade.radio news & podcasts ] [Podcast] 20. All you need is love

It’s almost Valentines day and love may be in the air. DJ Daemon doesn’t care too much about that and instead plays everloving Amiga-tunes and remembers when he fell in love with C64 basic (perhaps not something he wants to admit…), the demo scene and everything else around Commodore geekdom.He also overuses the word “Love” in a way that even the Beatles would have found a bit too much.

Playlist:
00:00 Amiga Flashback – show intro
00:08 DJ Daemon speaks about the show and mentions that love for computers also counts!
00:33 Amiga – Love thief
01:49 DJ Daemon speaks about how he grew up to love computers in the 80s.

06:04 DJ Daemon speaks about how he made his girlfriend a cosysop (not sysop!).
07:06 TAP – Love Me – TNE rmx
10:57 DJ Daemon speaks about loving a computer. Mentions Bad Religion.

15:47 DJ Daemon speaks about loving been a geek and what defines a geek as opposed to a more “normal” person.
16:54 Barry Almon – Lovely Girl Drowning
20:52 DJ Daemon speaks about love for the demo scene.
22:10 Ginseng of Alchemy – Lovesick
26:09 DJ Daemon admits using the word “Love” too much.

51:03 Michiel van den Bos – Love will find a way
58:28 DJ Daemon signs off and sends you away with one last tune.
58:42 NaBo&TeO – Love Opens Your Eyes

Production notes:
This is one of those shows, where the date pretty much made the topic mandatory. It did air one day before valentines day. But still....

I didn’t notice at recording that “TAP – Love Me – TNE rmx” and “AceCream – LoVE Me” are remixes of the same song… Ah, well, it’s good enough to hear twice…

Colophon:
"All you need is love" is a song by the Beatles, released in 1967. It's commonly believed it was featured on their magnum opus "Sgt Peppers lonely heart club", but this is not the case.

[Podcast] 19. Battle of the nerds

[ Ericade.radio news & podcasts ] [Podcast] 19. Battle of the nerds

Nerds and geeks are peaceful right? Nope! We battle as much as anyone else, but seldom in a fisticuffs fight. You know, it’s all about words and feeling superior because we have an HP 48 calculator, an Amiga instead of an Atari or because our favorite demo group just won in the great demo party. DJ Daemon dives into why we need to form groups or “cliques” where we feel elevated and enlighted as opposed of those other “troglodytes” of the competition.

[Podcast] 17. Standing on the brink in the eve of destruction

[ Ericade.radio news & podcasts ] [Podcast] 17. Standing on the brink in the eve of destruction

The 80s ended more than 30 years ago, but it was an interesting time in the eye of an impressionable youth such as me. I was 5 when it started and 15 when it was over. In between we had the closing chapter in the cold war, a battle between home computers, a combat where silence met the truth of an incident in a village near Kiev and off course the monumental clash between east and west as the borders fell. Most of this is presented through the eyes of the child I was back then.

Playlist:
00:00 Jingle – Top of the hour – Good evening
00:05 DJ Daemon introduces the episode.
00:25 Amiga – 80s_remix

20:25 Amiga – nuclear_winter

25:38 Amiga – chernbyl
29:57 DJ Daemon speaks about Nato vs the Warsaw pact. References Theatre Europe and Red storm rising for the C64.

52:52 Amiga – am-fm_-_raining_stars

55:08 Amiga – aufweide_monty_fmix
57:02 DJ Daemon thanks you for listening.
57:23 Amiga – blackjack

Production notes:
This is an episode built around me finding Ronald Reagan's infamour gaffe on Wikipedia and that made me laugh. Then I though of how little I understood of world politics back then.

Colophon:
Warning for word sallad. The title references the tune "On the eve of destruction" by Barry McGuire and the term "brinkmanship". The latter is a game when two or more nations compete in a dangerous buildup of nuclear armaments, pushing the world to the brink of desctruction. If it never passes the brink everyone wins (for now), else everyone lose (their lives).

[ Ericade.radio news & podcasts ] [Podcast] 15. Return of the Tekmann

Chiptunes are back in style in the retro scene. On of the people keeping this classic 80s and 90s computer music alive is Tekmann, who does his music on two Gameboys. He avoids doing to much post-work on the tunes he composes and instead prefers letting the real hardware doing the heavy lifting. It’s as real as it gets! Today we meet him in an interview where he talks about his creative approach, his “lone wolf” musician hobby and exactly how much he likes touring… That is when can, as the Corona puts quite a damper on it. You will also get to know why a Dead Mau5 looking super hero outfit is his prefered outfit when performing.

[ Ericade.radio news & podcasts ] [Podcast] 14. Not much of a plan 9 from outer space

20 minutes before the show would “Air”, I knew it could be done. My plan was to record it later. But as my previous engagements fell throutgh, I sprung into action and got all things good from Amiga Modules Archive with a rating of 9 out of 10. Hence the cheezy reference to the old sci-fi turkey created by Ed Wood. Then I voice tracked at a warp 10 speed and barely got it out in time.

[Podcast] 12. I thought I was wrong (but I was in error)

[ Ericade.radio news & podcasts ] [Podcast] 12. I thought I was wrong (but I was in error)

Being wrong is no fun, but it’s soo easy. This episode jokes around about the incorrect stuff I said during the fall of 2020 and even puts the very idea of calling it “Errata” on a podcast in question. So it’s time to question our correctness and sanity. Maybe being wrong is ok, but what if you let a crazy mad scientist style cryptographer doing it on a IT-security podcast? Daemon shudders when he remembers.Errata:– You just read it… I will explain it in the podcast.– And… Geez… This will have no end. The Mix tape guy is actually from Luxembourg, not Germany.

Colophon:
There is a rather narcisistic joke "I'm always right. Once I thought I was wrong, but I was in error". It's a bit of a paradox as well.

[Podcast] 10. The doctor's in and remixed

[ Ericade.radio news & podcasts ] [Podcast] 10. The doctor's in and remixed

Dr Awesome is a staple here, but today’s podcast plays the remixes that you don’t get to hear on the station otherwise. For one hour we reimagine his old Amiga modules with modern synthesizers and the effects to match. Not much to say, but a lot to experience. Best heard on high volume or with a decent set of head phones at a comfortable level (don’t damage your hearing!!).The remixes are by the good doctor himself, because who would be better to improve already stellar songs?

Production notes:
I love Dr. Awesome and his work and felt a special episode for him was a great idea. There are actually two episodes about him, but this is the one with his remixes and non-Amiga musik.

Colophon:
"The doctor is in" is written on the booth where Lucy sits in the comic strip "Snoopy". She provides pretty doubtful psychological services mostly to Charlie Brown.

PSA: Housekeeping happened

[ Slengpung ] PSA: Housekeeping happened

Just a quick news item while we're all suffering from IRL-party-withdrawal: We've finally finished a major server move - thanks D.Fox for hosting us for a few years, and thanks to Fnord and Ziphoid for our new hosting. As a result, it was about time we got rid of most of the old rickety code that ran the site and rewrote it; as such, some of the features may be missing, and we'll be fixing those as we go. Merry Xmas! :)

[Podcast] 8. The XMAS 2020 special, special, speciality. Hour 3/3.

[ Ericade.radio news & podcasts ] [Podcast] 8. The XMAS 2020 special, special, speciality. Hour 3/3.

Xmas time! This is the three hour long show that we’ve been waiting for. Broadcast during the Forndata-event, it features some commentaries from me finally losing the battle to Whamming, the cool weirdness that was the demos released and a lot of discussions about the CDTV and the CD32. Those two ultimately failing Commodore projects with vastly different starting points. Why did they fail and what was different and what was exactly the same?The first hour deals with the Forndata event and stuff like that.The second hour is all about the CDTV and it’s weird journey.The third hour gives you the CD32 – Commodore’s last hurrah.Errata: I claimed that if I gotta Whammed, I would cut the power to the whole building. When that unexpectedly DID happen, I failed to live up to my threat. Very sorry, but I don’t want to have a call from my landlord. It’s bad for my “having a home”-situation.In hour two, PlayIt live deleted two voicetracks. I was able to fix it live, but ended up not knowing what I had said that was not deleted and therefore name some hardware facts twice. Sorry about that.

Today we’re just lounging and remember the first times. It was magical the first time you felt her in your hand. … What are you thinking about?? I mean the Amiga and the C64! DJ Daemon speaks about the first time seeing a module played on Noisetracker and when he directed Seagreen BBS users to his BBS. And then, the question is how you shouldn’t really wear a mask in Corona times. Obviously it’s just a thing we have to get used to. Random thoughts and some really nice tunes.

This is one of the last times I allowed myself to ad-lib long narratives. While I'm fairly good at narrating, I can get stuck trying to end sentences and also get too talky. But it's still pretty decent storytelling.

Colophone:
Not really a specific thought behind the title.

Some of the speech is affected by a too active noise gate. I stopped using that feature later as the noise background in the room is pretty tolerable.

Help yourself to many geek-points if you figure this one out: it's from BBC 2 show "QI". The show is a TV-show that does away with normal conventions and plays like a PUB-quiz made by the nerdist people around. And the obviously correct answer will almost always give you massive points. "How many moons are there around earth" should NOT be answered with "1" or you get the infamous klaxon and points. The person with the most points lose... It play around with common misconceptions and facts that people don't generally know. Actually, counting smaller bodies, there are more than just moon around earth. It's true.

And the connection: every season of QI is connected to one letter in the Alphabet. One episode in the N-series was called "Words that starts with an N". That simple, really.

[Podcast] 1. A prequel better than the Phantom Menace

[ Ericade.radio news & podcasts ] [Podcast] 1. A prequel better than the Phantom Menace

The “pilot” or pre-sequel-whatever. The show that started the wild idea of having another podcast. Because we need one… Or do we?I did not know it would really become a podcast later, so it had no name really. Just felt like making a voicetracked show for no apparent reason . Coreus from Retro Spirit suggested I started a Podcast, so I did… All later episodes correctly bear the name “Amiga Flashback”.

Production notes:
The very first episode of the show that later became the podcast. Hence it's not called Amiga Flashback.

Colophon:
It's a reference to the Star Wars episode 1 called "the Phantom menace". It's a prequel to the original episodes and a pretty impopular movie. Hence this show episode is likely to get a higher rating. Not that it's a big achievement.
