Another exceptionally high quality tracked tune that held up against the new streamed soundtracks that demos were starting to use.

From Nonstop by Orange demozoo.org/productions/...

This is the kind of tracked music that really doesn't sound or feel tracked. Esp in the era where demos were starting to use MP3 music. Some great tracking in this tune

Oooo nice one! yoink!

FujiNet - The Future of Retro Computing The Future of Retro Computing

I keep trying to tell people about #FujiNet.
That it is a WiFi adapter for your favorite #Atari8bit, #Apple2, #ColecoAdam, #TRS80CoCo, #Commodore, #Atari2600, #AtariLynx, and #MSDOS machines, with more to come.

But word isn't getting out.

Can u help?

I love the Amiga Demoscene but sometimes I watch an AGA accelerated demo and feel like "Hey - you know it's okay to just make a PC demo, right?"

I'm a simple man. I see Atari, I click the heart. 🤪

"KNOW YOUR PROTEST RIGHTS You don’t need a permit to protest in response to breaking news and you don’t need a permit to march in the streets or along sidewalks, as long as you’re not obstructing traffic or access to buildings. When you are lawfully present in any public space, you have the right to photograph anything in plain view, including federal buildings and the police. If you believe your rights have been violated, when you can, write down everything you remember, get contact information for witnesses, and take photographs of any injuries. If you get stopped by the police, ask if you’re free to go. If they say yes, calmly walk away. If you get arrested, you have a right to ask why. Otherwise, say you wish to remain silent and ask for a lawyer immediately. Don’t sign, say or agree to anything without a lawyer present. If you get stopped by a member of the military or any law enforcement office at a protest, you have the right to remain silent or to tell them that you’ll only answer questions in the presence of an attorney — no matter your citizenship or immigration status."

If you're taking to the streets to protest today, know your rights.

I mean, if anything needed to be PRGEd its this administration

We're having fun with fellow Amiga retro geeks at Amiga40 in Mönchengladbach, Germany! 🕹️❤️

Damn your kitchen is retro and I love it

My GBS-C has worked well with Amiga for a long time until I got my RetroTink.

We had a ton of fun at IRCExpo this year linking an ST and an Amiga for 4-player Lotus 2 action!

Cropped photo of my TV displaying the opening room of the game “Lumo 2” - it’s a hexagonal space, displayed in black and white, with a door in the back, and a corpse of an egg (having cracked his shell) wearing boxing gloves and a pair of boots.

It doesn’t quite beat Hades II with its ability to pet the frog, but the opening to Lumo 2 has me HOWLING at the mysterious egg-like corpse in its opening room.

RIP Dizzy. You aren’t missed at all.

family ties final Tracked Music by Fndr + Radix / The Black Lotus, released 30 March 1997

#MODtober Day 16:

Family Ties (final) by Radix

From the demo Captured Dreams by The Black Lotus

Another tune that I fell in love with long before seeing the demo. Radix has put out so many AMAZING tunes that it's impossible for me to pick a favorite. (Warn: demo NSFW)

IKR? It actually took me a bit to remember how I did it. I remember only having like 6 or 7 floppies to work with so I installed the base set one day, then took the floppies back and wrote the next set and installed that. Skipped perl entirely because that was another day's worth of floppies 🤣

Mr. White Shadow! Tracked Music by C.C. Catch

Mr. White Shadow by CC Catch (a.k.a. Kenny Chou)

Better known for his soundtrack to One Must Fall, he contributed this track to the amazing 286 demo DoWhackaDo by Renaissance and Shadow Productions.

Trump can simply give $40 billion in US tax money to his pals in Argentina, openly admit it is for the intended purpose of keeping the MAGA allied right wing government in power, and pocket billions for himself. The US has no laws anymore and that's your money they are stealing.

I alllllmost chose this one more basically that exact reason

Atari MegaST 2

I am become Varta, Destroyer of Computers. (Picture is top down, looking at a Varta battery spreading corrosion across an Amiga 2000 motherboard)

As it's almost Halloween, time for some horror...

I think it supported my S3 Virge card better than XFree at the time

I'm a highly improper Linux user -- I pirated AcelleratedX

Actually I think it was Debian I ran on the m68k. Though I def ran YellowDog on PPC Macs

Nah - you don't have to have 20+ years experience to enjoy using Linux. We love to joke about how much you had to go thru to run Linux BITD but It's great that more people are using it today

Perfect Circle by Trauma Child Genesis

From the Amiga demo of the same name by The Black Lotus.

"Wait, an XM from an Amiga demo?" I hear you say. Well when you've got an 060.... Anyway, great tune for a great demo.

Stranglehold Tracked Music by Jeroen Tel, released 22 December 1995

Did it again! Well #MODtober Day 13:

Stranglehold bu Jeroen Tel

16-channel XM with only one sample: A sine wave

Nice use of XM "instruments" to (ab)use the single sample.

Never ran that one. I was a beta tester for Corel Linux though. Still have those discs (unless I sent them to @bloopmuseum.bsky.social ). It was good - very user-friendly. Very comfy desktop.
