New Remix Album: Nepawaganza
There's a new remix album available by a Finnish duo called Nepawaganza. Their eponymous CD album is now available for order at their website. They also released a 5-track digital maxi of the album on Bandcamp where fans can preview what the full 11-track album is about.
Nepawaganza consists of Greippi on electric cello and Arttu Raami on electric bass. Their debut album also features German trumpeter Sobrasson on several tracks. Nepawaganza has been around for 6 years now, they've played at about 20 gigs, including demoscene events such as Zoo and Jumalauta. This is their first C64 remix album - check it out, and if you like what you hear, order their CD (and soon: cassette tape!) at their website.
Mastertronic C64 Remixes - Part 4
The 4th and last part in the article series about Mastertronic C64 remixes is now available. In it Waz takes a look at tracks from commercially released albums that remixed tunes from games that were re-released by Mastertronic. If that all sounds a bit complicated, that's probably my fault - just go read the article (in which Waz also provided handy links where you can listen to the remixes he mentions), and it'll all be clear.
"Amiga Rocks Harder" Now Available on Bandcamp
The latest album of FastLoaders Amiga Rocks Harder
is now available for purchase on Bandcamp, too.
New Fastloaders Album: Amiga Rocks Harder
Today the FastLoaders have released their much anticipated second crowd-funded Amiga remix album, appropriately titled Amiga Rocks Harder
. If you have backed their Kickstarter campaign check your inbox for the download links of the digital album.
The album contains well over 2 hours of brand new Amiga remixes spread over 3 discs and 39 tracks. Watch this space for release announcements on digital streaming services, including on Bandcamp - as soon as they are available, we'll let you know!
ROTY 2025 Winners

BIT Live is Back in 2026 - With a Surprise Date!
The FastLoaders have announced that Back In Time Live will be held again in 2026 in Bergen, Norway, and this time with a - <checks his notes again> - summer date!?! Yes, that's right, folks, for the first time ever, BIT Live will be held as a two-day event smack in the middle of SUMMER on July 31- August 1! Rumors were abound last year that Norway does actually have a summer season, so this might be a good opportunity to fact-check that in person. The event will be at a new venue, too, at the Ole Bull Scene, still in Bergen's city centre, not far from where all the other Norwegian BIT Live events were held in recent years. Tickets are already available for the event at the link below.

Dutch Breeze/Robocop 3 (Progressive Uplift)
Arranged by Lagerfeldt
This is totally awesome! The remix couldn't be done any better, the lead sound that's crucial for this tune is perfect. To some it up, this is THE f***ing remix for this tune. It goes on repeat now for the last hour, I even added it on my mobile phone 😊
The original sid was the best tune on the Dutch Breeze demo.
So, Lagerfeldt, when will you remake Flip flop (also from Dutch Breeze)? I'm waiting. Good work!

Arranged by Allister Brimble
Just to mention: I'm a child of the very first days of Atari2600, C64 and Atari800XL. Although these days, I never played 'Lightforce'… on not any system.
Today, a few weeks ago, I heard Brimble's remake of that game music (and of course the good old. sid, to get a compare) and instantly felt in love with it. It is, indeed, a modern remix. Still electronic, still fast and still none sort of a chartz-like-one you can hear all the fu****g day on your Radio… It's strictly bound to the rythmn of the original, but with more love. More love, for the old times. More in-depth. Where the music more touched your sense, your soul, than your money-bag. I think it is made with love… somehow.
But… to come to a conclusion:
If you like harmonic (Jean Michel Jarre) and rythmic tunes in a modern, fast and trancey good old way, this one is definately one you should hear!
Yet, still, I get a bumpy condition of my skin, when listening to this awesome track… 😊
Thank you, Allister Brimble!! Thank you!!
