DJ Daemon 04:04.534 So it's pop music today. Most genres as presented by the tracked music scene, they are pretty clear cut. But today's music really doesn't stick out as an example of something unique. But it's great and has earned its reputation.

DJ Daemon 11:51.566 Yep, it's mostly softy tunes today. It feels right. Tracked music seldom features vocals, and if they do, it's mostly short samplings with screams and effects. The Great Fox actually sings on the next song called Syndrome. It seems to be about pain and suffering and struggles. Revolution wrote on ModArchive in 2021 while rating it 9 out of 10.LOL, this song is crazy. I had some episode of serious aches and pains and I can't walk, can't sleep moments in my life, so I feel this guy's pain. This song never ceases to get my attention. Life ain't always perfect folks. Be glad for your good health. I sure am glad for mine.

DJ Daemon 21:50.158 Fast and vindictive or something like that. So yes, I'm still counting the days until revision. You know, the devil party that opens on April the 15th and runs the whole weekend. But a few weeks still remain. Next up is the artist, the professor, and I shall spoil the challenge a bit for you. See if you can catch it and...What Rob Hubbard song is hidden in this tune?

DJ Daemon 30:00.558 So you will have to wait until the end of the show before I reveal the answer. Well, let's try some moody guitar play from MC Dreamer and I don't know why. Comments from ModArchive. Pip Malt wrote in 27, rating it 7 out of 10. Nice acoustic guitar tune by MC Dreamer. Smart use of guitar squeaks.to make it sound like the guitar player is shifting from note to note. The only other instruments are drums and bass, so it gets pretty repetitive towards the end. It's almost 6 minutes long. I would have liked more variation. An unknown commenter in 2000 rating it 9 out of 10 writes, This is simply great. I'm just thinking about a desolated broken heart.The feeling when hearing this song is incredible. Damn, it's a good sad song. The guitar samples are great and I notice the fingers passing over the strings. Wow!

🎧 31:09 MC Dreamer - I don't know why 1997

🎧 36:59 DJ Daemon speaks. 54s

DJ Daemon 36:59.246 That is some serious nice softness. Next up is a song by Fly Guy and emotional hero. And in 1999 an unknown commenter wrote, rating it 7 out of 10. This song is slow, but I guess you were expecting something like that, right? It's interesting enough to listen to and it's quite original. But beyond that, there is nothing else.The way the samples were used in this tune actually made parts of it sound like an epic megagames tune. I'm sure that was not intention either. They all sound very nice to summarize. And it is from 1994 by the way. The guy who calls himself Fly Guy is from Oslo in Norway.

🎧 37:49 Flyguy - Emotional hero

🎧 40:54 DJ Daemon speaks. 54s

DJ Daemon 40:54.062 If you're not a very humble person, maybe you will call yourself the genius. The genius calls himself that. And he is the next artist. The song is called Increasing Sorrow and it was written in 1995. His real name is Johan Kjellasson. And commenters? Yeah, we got two of them. DMath, he wrote in 2013, rating it 10 out of 10. Yeah, this is the only mud.I can call it true perfection, it's beauty at its best. An unknown commenter wrote in 1998, rating it 9 out of 10. You might listen to this as a normal listener and think bleh. I'm gonna leave it there because he can't really spell. The grammar is atrocious, but I think he likes it.

🎧 41:44 The Genius - Increasing sorrow

🎧 46:50 DJ Daemon speaks. 47s

DJ Daemon 46:50.432 You're tuned to flashback tracks from the past and if I said tune I'd be lying because we don't have any frequency. You know as an old DJ that's kind of things you learn to say and you can't unlearn them right? Okay. But if you want to listen to the real station so to speak we have two streams or two stations what you want to call it. Go to Ericade.radio and dial it in. Yeah that's another thing we used to say back in the day.Here is Rubrik and Baby Dreams. I think he has a lot of great tunes. If you search on the mod archive you can find a plethora of his stuff. Most of it is great.

🎧 47:32 Robric - Baby Dreams

DJ Daemon 51:39.822 So let's not forget my promise to you. Which song by Rob Hubbard was it? It was actually Skate or Die, the title theme. It's hard to hear, but you can hear it 4 minutes and 55 seconds into the song called Holidays by Professor Chaos. And leading you into that good night, that would be Wits and a Journey of sorts. Wits who comes from Australia in Melbourne.And lost out will be rubric pyramid in one week from now you get another episode and another podcast episode and that's great. Here's me DJ Daemon signing off.
