Podcast episode profile for 97. Another summer fly-over
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.

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! The summer is blazingly hot and we are starting this hour up with Joss and Shoresco. It was released less than a week ago, so yes, the mod trackers are still active and at it!
DJ Daemon introduces the show a presents a brand new tune, composed about a week ago by Josss. 21s
Josss – Churrasco
DJ Daemon remembers he has to work next week, but hope for a slow start. 25s

Darkman007 – Sad Song
DJ Daemon gives you the first medley. 27s
We need more medleys, less sad songs. So let's do the first medley of the day. It's Ninja, and I assure you, you're gonna hear more from him in this program. It's Neon Lights in Rain, then it's Keb Corp with Sha Tu Szech, and last, Michael Wilsynske with Strange Encounter.

DJ Daemon talks about an upcoming episode where he will talk with another old sysop. 41s
It's about one year since we had the last interview. It was FsFreak and we are going to give you something really cool in a few weeks. It's a sysop that remembers the 90s and how cool the whole scene was. So me and him, we're gonna talk about old memories and remember those things that people may not want us to, really. But that's for another day.Today we are playing the music and Drax is next up with a new one, Burning Bridges.

DJ Daemon: samplerd tunes = ransom notes in music form. 24s
Do you remember those ransom letter notes? The ones from the Hollywood movies? Yeah? They used to have different letters from different newspapers. And that's kinda how the next song sounds. It's a song called Playing with Death, but it's actually Nighthawk playing with samplers.
Nighthawk – Playing with death
DJ Daemon compares the next song with “Peaceful journey”. 27s
Nighthawk gets another chance. Next song is by him and it's called Rainbow Runner. He takes some help from Norfair and he's also remixing his own song called Peaceful Journey. You heard it on the station, super popular. Is it better or the same? I leave that to you to decide.

While you're waiting for more information, listen to Lovia and Himalaya.

DJ Daemon talks about DiHalt summer party 2022 and that Edison is on location. 43s
I'm browsing through the demo parties in DemoParty.net and for July I'm noting that Dehalt, the summer edition, is coming soon, on the 29th of July. Yes, it's a Russian demo party, so maybe controversial for some. And Edison, as I spoke about, let me remind me, it's physical, you can go there, it's in northern Stockholm here in Sweden.and it's opening at 3 o'clock in the Austrian known Swedish time going on with necros and mysticists.

You're tuned to Flashback, tracks from the past, and I'm DJ Daemon. We're playing... what do we call it? We call it tracked music or tracker music. But out on YouTube it's called stuff like retro electro, ship tunes, ship wave or synth wave. Whatever you want to call it, we're playing it and it's awesome. Going on with Radix and a shogun named Paul.

He got his Commodore 64 in 1989 and his first Amiga in 1990. A huge fan of tracker music and have had a long standing dream to create a radio show playing that kind of music. 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.
- 88.9 MB
- 93 268 393 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.
- 1:03:34
- 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.
- −14.2 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.
- 2.1 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.
- −2.5 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
- 10.2 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.
- −17.1 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.
- −17.1 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.
- 0.01 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.
- −9.3 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.
