🎤 Production Notes
Colophon:"Summer in the city" is a 60s song by Lovin spoonful.All the songs except one has either sun, beach or summer in the title.This is a show to just keep it rolling. I have put a lot of effort in giving a nice summery feeling, but don't tell any stories. Summer is a bit of down time, so no need to make it special.
Transcript
ericade.radio – Time for Flashback, tracks from the past – with your host DJ Daemon
Time for flashback! Tracks from the past! With your host, DJ Daemon. Vacation times are coming. One year ago I did a summer show, but this year it's more music and less stories. Let's just relax with a drink and a radio, as I'm giving you a pure tracked summer.
DJ Daemon: Vacation times are coming! One year ago I did a summer show, but this year, it's more music and less stories. Let's just relax with a drink and the radio, as I'm giving you a pure tracked summer. 19s
D.Raven – Dove and Raven
DJ Daemon: time for the first medley. 28s
D Raven, Dove and Raven, not much fantasy there if you ask me. He has the same name as his song. And we are going on with today's first medley. It's Trigger, Moon Over Beach, Ricky Birdtree, Beach Sounds and Maff, Beach. Yeah, I don't have much fantasy myself, I'm sorry.
TRiGGER – Moon Over The Beach
RiKi BiRDtREE – Beach Sounds
maF – Beach
DJ Daemon struggles with pronouncing the next artist. It's fun. 32s
That last one, it's fit for a game if you ask me. Next up, I don't really know how to pronounce. It's either Bette Le Chasse as we say here in Europe, or it's Beetlejuice as you crazy Americans call it. The artist that has a name based on a star, and the song is called Beach Scam. Great song, weird stereo. This is Flashback, tracks from the past, and I'm DJ Daemon.
Betelgeuze – Beach Scam
DJ Daemon sends a “get well soon”-message to Slaygon and Ziona over at #SlayRadio. 41s
Next up is a message for Slaygon and Siona over at Slay Radio. They have come down with Covid-19 and the message goes get well soon. I hope to hear you on the radio in a few days. And next up is Lizard King of Strange and it's summer in Gambia. Well it's summer everywhere I guess, but Gambia is probably quite nice of a place to be hotAnd maybe it's a desert or something. But well, here in Sweden I can't complain either. We have 26 degrees above, so hey!
Lizardking of Strange – Summer in gambia
DJ Daemon mentions #gubbdata and #arok. 26s
Next week on the 1st of July, two demo parties. That's right, first checking in is Hungary and Iraq. And at the same time you get good data here in Sweden. So it's a great summer if you like tracked music. I'm still the DJ Daemon and we are going on with Micro Net and Summer Nights.

DJ Daemon notes that weather makes the Swedish summer great again. 34s
A standing joke on this station has always been the Swedish summer. I'm in Sweden and the summer is the best day of the year. But not this year. It's been great. It's 27 degrees above according to my meter. And I'm really, really baking in here. And we are going on with the next song. It's Ketsch, the snitch. And summer days turn rainy. Maybe that's what we want here in Sweden. Weird.
Cheech The Sneech – Summer Days Turn Rainy
DJ Daemon talks about making the site better. 38s
Summer means a lot of work behind the scenes on the station. I'm going to work behind Ericade. Radio, the website, more features and better functioning ones added. That's a great idea, But while you're waiting the show, this one will go on. And so will the stations, both of them. Next up is Sirius and the Sunset of Orion. We have lot of Sirius...different Orion songs, but this is one we've never had on this station before and that's a pity because it's great.
Psirius – Sunset Of Orion

DJ Daemon : “worst porn-movie ending EEEEEEEVVVAH!”. 32s
Worst ending of a porno movie ever. This is DJ D-Man and I'm saying bye bye for now and leading you into this good night. It's Nasrath and summertime and the final song of the hour and podcast. It's Elman and Sunflower. Summer of love. Yeah, I remember that. I was like minus eight. You know what they say? If you remember the 60s, you were never there. Goodbye.
Nusrat – SummerTime

In 2020, that dream came true and in december Amiga Flashback started as a podcast. It was later renamed Flashback, tracks from the past and here we are.
He is also an orga for Swedish demo party Edison and a total retro nerd.

Mp3 file details
Open the waveform at full size (opens in a new tab)
- Scan status Whether the station’s analyser could read this mp3. “OK” means every number in this box was measured from the actual audio, not copied from a tag that somebody typed.
- OK
- measured from the file itself
- Scanned When the file was last analysed. If the mp3 is replaced afterwards, these numbers describe the old version until it is scanned again.
- File size How much room the mp3 takes on a disk, and how much data you use when you play or download it. It is roughly the bit rate multiplied by the length.
- 85.9 MB
- 90 070 258 bytes
- File last changed When the mp3 on our server was last written - usually the day it was uploaded, or encoded again.
- Length How long the recording plays. It is measured from the audio itself, so it is right even when a tag in the file says something else.
- 1:01:08
- hours : minutes : seconds
- Bit rate How much data is spent on each second of sound. More data keeps more detail when the audio is squeezed into an mp3: 128 kbit/s is acceptable, 192 is good, and 320 is the most an mp3 can hold.
- 196 kbit/s
- good quality
- Sample rate Digital audio is a long row of measurements of the sound wave. This is how many are taken every second. 44.1 kHz is the CD standard and 48 kHz the video and broadcast standard - both capture everything a human ear can hear.
- 44.1 kHz
- 44 100 measurements a second
- Channels How many separate signals the file holds. Mono is one. Stereo is two - left and right - which is what lets a sound be placed somewhere between your speakers.
- Stereo
- 2 channels
- Codec The method used to shrink the audio. MP3 leaves out the detail an ear is least likely to miss, which makes the file about a tenth of the size of the original recording.
- MP3
- Loudness The average loudness of the whole recording, the way a listener hears it (“integrated loudness”, in LUFS). The closer to 0, the louder. Music services aim for about -14 and podcasts for about -16, so that you do not have to reach for the volume between tracks.
- −14.3 LUFS
- typical for streaming and podcasts
- Loudness range The distance between the quiet passages and the loud ones, in LU (1 LU is 1 dB). A small number means an even, compressed sound - good in a car or on a phone. A large number means big swings between soft and loud.
- 2.3 LU
- very even
- True peak The highest level the signal ever reaches, including the peaks that appear between the measurements when the file is turned back into sound. 0 is the ceiling: above about -1 dBTP, a recording can crackle (“clip”) on some players.
- −2.4 dBTP
- safely below the ceiling
- Dynamic range How far the loudest peaks stand above the loud parts of the recording, in dB - the “DR” number that music collectors compare albums by. A low number (under 8) means the sound has been squeezed until everything is equally loud: punchy, but tiring to listen to. 14 and up means the music has room to breathe, with real hits and real quiet. It says nothing about how loud the file is: turning the volume down does not change it. Chip music made of steady square waves naturally lands low.
- DR 10
- 10.1 dB · moderately dynamic
- Left channel level The average strength of the left channel over the whole recording (“RMS”), counted in dB below the loudest level a digital file can hold (dBFS). More negative means quieter. Compare it with the right channel.
- −16.9 dBFS
- average (RMS) over the whole file
- Right channel level The average strength of the right channel over the whole recording (“RMS”), counted in dB below the loudest level a digital file can hold (dBFS). More negative means quieter. Compare it with the left channel.
- −16.9 dBFS
- average (RMS) over the whole file
- Channel balance The left level minus the right level. Close to 0 dB means both sides are equally loud. More than about 1 dB and the whole mix leans towards one ear.
- 0.04 dB
- balanced
- Stereo width How strong the part that DIFFERS between left and right is, compared with the part they share. A very low number (-40 dB or less) means both sides carry the same sound - mono in practice. A higher number means a wider stereo picture; a very high one can sound thin on a single speaker.
- −12.1 dB
- ordinary stereo
- Cover art in the file Whether a picture is stored inside the mp3 itself. A player shows it as the album art when the file is played somewhere else - in a car, on a phone, offline.
- Yes
ID3 tags Text stored inside the mp3 file itself - title, artist, album and so on. It is what a music player, a phone or a car stereo shows while it plays the file, and it travels with the file wherever it is copied.
Measured from the mp3 file on our server by the station’s own analyser. Point at a label, or select its question mark, for what the number means.
