First off, may I say what a privilege it is to listen to your remixes on RKO! It's always great to see that an original SID composer is still active on the scene. (And just between us, to this day I still prefer your Ocean Loader SID over Mr. Galway's. My friend and I used to spend countless hours p...

A couple of people have commented on the vocoder bits Ahem, like... me. :) I agree with this absolutley but wanted to clarify that its not actually a vocoder at all but rather a free virtual voice VST called AlterEgo by Plogue Ah, a light-bulb just went up in my head! Of course, now it makes sense!...

You have a few tools at your disposal: SID2MIDI - I've had pretty good luck with this over the years. Not as precise in some cases, but most of the time it nudges me in the right direction. SIDDump - Honestly, I haven't had the need to use this one, yet, but if I were at a total loss, I'd seriously ...

As you may or may not have heard, today I was honored at the ROTY 2018 award show. I did not come here to boast about this - on the contrary, I am very humbled by it. In fact, I'm still very much shell-shocked about it. :shock: But it also made me think a lot all day, so bear with me as I get a litt...

Wow, that's quite a lineup! Looking forward to it!

I'm wondering if the Easter egg game was actually made by Jeff...

I like the new "copyright notice" on RKO (even if it's not called that and it's probably not even a legally binding one), but if you want to take it a step further, you could implement something similar to what Soundcloud is doing: https://help.soundcloud.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003566748...

Just "played it through", or "interactive watched it", or whatever you want to call it. There's a nice nod to the sound of the Commodore in it (since the story takes place in the mid-80s), and as I was watching it I couldn't help but think that one of the characters really remind...

If you are interested in listening to a no-samples mix of my Hades Nebula remix, I just posted it on Soundcloud:

Hades Nebula (For Ben) [no samples]

Ben Daglish Legacy fundraiser.

We attended Ben's memorial yesterday, and it was a good send-off for him - with laughter and music. Representing the C64 and Amiga - Chris Abbott, Marcel Donné, Rob Hubbard, Tony Crowther, Mark Knight, Max Hall and Jackie Mason, with Jon Hare giving a short memoir about Ben's computer music. Thank ...

2018 Back In Time Live, Bergen, Norway - Day 2

Indeed! It was very obvious that everyone had an awesome weekend! I hope we can do this again some time! :D The only sad part was the rain, but at least you got to see Bergen from it's typical side :D I didn't mind the rain, but I very much missed Ben from the event: his enthusiasm, his passion, hi...

It's 4am local time in Norway, the BIT Live event here in Bergen just concluded. What a fantastic 2-day celebration it was! I had so much fun and I have so many stories to tell... And I have pictures, too, but those will have to come later once I am back in the United States. I just want to drop a q...
