We have covered the demo scene since 2020, and play all the great chip tune music as well. Join us to hear tracked music combined with commentary from the geek-of-all-trades: DJ Daemon. He was once known as Daemon in the Amigaworld, and brings you stories about Amiga, retrocomputing, C64, demos, the demo scene and all things nerdy in the retro world.
We play tracker music composed on Protracker, Screamtracker, Fasttracker and Impulsetracker. It's music composed on Amiga and the retro-PC. Genres such as Chiptune, Synthwave and Retro electro.

Svenska Commodoreklubben (SCK) held a great retro-event in Täby in northern Stockholm in Sweden between the 26 - 28th of August 2022. It held a fantastic museum, a repair shop, a quiz held by Frida Katarina, the online meeting "Sen kväll med Commodoreklubben" and ericade.radio did a live broadcast.Huge thanks to Hravnkel, Björn A, Bjonte, PataG, Hedgewizard, Per G, Frida Katarina and all the other people making the retro-scene the place to be!We did a live broadcast during the most of the Friday, but had to cut it short on Saturday due health-issues on my part. But still, we got a lot of stuff to talk about. And the music is a fresh addition to the station and mostly very soft and mellow as it feels right. Enjoy!The link: commodore.se/about-us/ (Mostly in Swedish)ErrataI said that the Amiga 500 came out in 1997. I misspoke. It was in 1987. My bad.
Ep. 102
What a computer! The legendary C64. In August of 2022, it celebrates 40 years of being the one computer we all remember fondly. That's right, Commodore launched it in August of 1982. The same year as the war in the Falklands and Michael Jackson's thriller.DJ Daemon talks about the C64. The music is mostly fantastic remakes of old C64 game tunes.

Assembly is a famous Finnish demo party that started 30 years ago.

Episode 100! From December 2020 until today, it's been quite a ride. But no need to get all misty eyed about it. DJ Daemon instead spends this hour exploring two tracker music oddities: the AHX and HVL formats.So expect more chiptunes today, as both those formats were born to excel in that way.

In the middle of the hot summer of 2022, two sysops met over the Internet and started talking retrocomputing, the Amiga, the demo scene and the horrors of overheating modems and why you valued what you downloaded more back in the day. In this episode, DJ Daemon and Hravnkel also selects their favorite Amigatunes from the 90s and talk about why they like them so much.Hravnkel is an old ascii artist whose first BBS lasted two hours. But he started a new, modern one called "This old cabin" in 2017.DJ Daemon used to be part of the demo group Eternal in 1994-97 as a sysop.Both are fans of Commodore, the Amiga and the C64.
Ep. 97
The middle of July until early August is what I call the "fly-over" territories of the summer. You just pass through them while enjoying your life. I go back to work tomorrow but hope for some more vacation in a few weeks.So relax a few more days, when the weather is great and there are few things going on.
Ep. 96
Talk about a scheduling conflict! Gubbdata in Sweden and Arok in Hungary both ran on the 1st to 3rd of July 2022. DJ Daemon solved it by waiting for the songs to arrive, so now we have 17 competing tracks from both demo parties.It's gonna be a great hour of six Amiga tunes, eight remixes and three C64 pure SIDs.
