📝 Transcript
Time for Flashback! Tracks from the past! Today with another demo party top list! Assembly Summer Party 2022. It ended a few days ago. They're a grand tradition and now celebrate 30 years of being a demo party. It may even be THE demo party! One of the most venerated meetings of the artistic minds. Flashback! Tracks from the past!Let the top list begin! Two top lists today. The first is Track Music. 16 contestants and place 16 goes to Serena by Anacron. 297 points. And here it is.
Some of the songs get little bit shorted down. And we have to go on, it's Place 15 and it has Tarson doing some monkeying around. It's called Delay Music and gets 320 points.
Next song you will get in full, it's Place 14. You know how they say, time flies when you attend a demo party. So it's no joke that Dietze, he calls his tune Flying Through Time. As I said, Place 14 and 338 points. And let's do some upbeat tempo.
Getting closer to the in-crowd of Plays Tom. But LaMettrie has to accept the lucky Plays 14 with Resilier Generation and 339 points. I'm getting some weird 8-bit game vibes here.
We continue down the 8-bit memory lane with the Beat Hawk and Asin 19 Thai Eka 22. I probably mispronounced all of that.
tracker as used by Signal gives you all the right retro feeling. A mix between new and old and it is a comfy ride on place 11 with 355 points.
Yes, the real top list is here. It's held by Jaffa of static and decadence. 360 points leads the way into the first step of the Starway to tracker heaven.
What do we want more than bass? Netflix and bass? No. Try NES and bass by jesky. 368 points.
Nice place. Janna Sisters is a legendary game on the Amiga, but have you ever heard about the jolly Crack Sisters? Me neither, but it seems like a game created in the weird mine of Lorica. 379 points and a call from social services awaits.
Getting down the list, it's time for Forcing Constraints by Yupi of Femia. 430 points for a nice impulse tracker tune with a mellow feeling to it.
Next up are some soft beats and techno feeling from YCI. The song is called Sanity Complex and gets 479 points. And yeah, my father is watching some kind of game here in the background if you wonder what's going on.
5th place! H is just a hexadecimal according to Outran. Mine, by the way, is 2F. And here is 208 hexadecimal points for this upper beat track. Yeah, that's 520 decimal.
I need a drink now. Good news, Raw Argon is serving up a blueberry plasma smoothie. It's yours for 558 points.
Third place, bronze medal. Absolutely. And we are going on with something I haven't heard about. Killer pigeons. That's a thing, obviously. It's alcapelo. And pigeons, well, no, I haven't heard about them killing anything. But tomatoes, they are dangerous for real. How many points, you say? Well, 577.
It's Ross of Fit and ByteRapers and the song is called Thin Upper Clouds. Last time I checked those who are called Altostratus. Now you know how many points? It would be 595.
I don't know about you, but when I see the names Bonefish and the Mug I know there is a golden medal somewhere. Remember Brofists? Yeah. And now you have the Mug, Jaws and Bonefish. So yeah, it's gold. Nasty ways and 892 points.
The end of the top list, or so you thought. Of course I got another one for you. It's from the Assembly Listening Competition. I get a feeling they messed up a movie title. It's called Fast and Curious by Ephemerics.
This is not a complete list, but you get the highest ranking numbers and at number 5, 518 points. It's back to Orion and El Capelo.
And time for some fantasy when it comes to names. It's Midnight Commando and the revenge of the relaxing saxophone. That sounds very scary.
Whoa, what happened there? Somebody stole the vinyl in front of my eyes. I don't like that. But here is me, DJ Daemon, leading you into that good night is the three winners. The first was The Bronze, it's Spacey also, I speed head of ByteRapers. On second place Logic Suppressor by Turbunight. And on first place, Visitor Macro SFLS Stage by Duality Vile.Thank you for listening and remember ericade.
The Ericade Radio Network. We love the demo scene.
