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. I know, I know, this is a monthly show. So you're supposed to be waiting for December's edition. But I felt like I want to make another episode just today at Monday. So you're getting one hour of the best from ModArchive. The things that have been spotlight. We're starting up with Ether audio and Soft Eyes Planet.
DJ Daemon welcomes you to another \"unexpected\" show.
Ether audio - Soft Ice Planet
DJ Daemon the first medley of today.
Sweet song really, isn't it? I think it is. This is Flashback, tracks from the past and I'm DJ Daemond. Time for today's first medley. Well, what do we have for you, Wigget? You may not do that and Black Coffee Cat. C512W with My Birthday and finally Hyper Unknown and Goat Fiction.
Youmaynotdothat - Black Coffee Cat
C512w - My Birthday!
Hyperunknown - Goat fiction
DJ Daemon notes that you get another medley in a few minutes.
Colidace - The Red Alliance
DJ Daemon talks about the upcoming christmas show.
This podcast is now a monthly one. That means you have to wait until December until the next episode. And I got some good news for you. I spoke into Correus and he wants to create another of those Christmas episodes. We did one last year and it was me, Correus and the Baron of Dubstep talking about all kinds of retro game history and playing some good music. We're gonna do that again. So yeah, stand by and you get it. Anyway.Time for some more music, it's Platonist and Enchanter.Well, seem to like the Platonist so much that the next one is gonna be him as well. It's gonna be blinding light, but first a short story. I spoke to a senior a few days ago and she told me that a lot of the most famous sites on the scene have been historically hacked. Latest number of attacks I heard about was against Bitjam and I hope they come back one day, but they are shut down right now as a result of it. Really sad.It goes to tell that you have to be very careful when connecting anything you built yourself into the internet. And even if you didn't build it yourself, you had to patch it and keep it secure. So I have spent the last two to three weeks on Ericad.radio and the backend, trying to tighten it up, fixing all kinds of vulnerabilities. I would recommend a site called Sneak. S-N-Y-K. You can go there and for free if you're a private entity, or sorry, a...known commercial entity, you can use their service to scan your github repository and find vulnerabilities in the code. Really useful. Anyway, back to the show. We are as I said going on with Platonist and Blinding Light.
Platonist - Enchanter
DJ Daemon speaks about hacked demo scene sites including Bitjam.
Platonist - Blinding light
DJ Daemon about sourcing new songs from the demo scene.
A few days ago I went to a Discord server and asked people there to suggest good songs or good track music that has been created and released on any demo party in 2025. I'm still waiting for some good suggestions but I'm gonna have to come back on that. Anyway, we are going on with some music. It's Platinist again and final day.
Platonist - Final day
DJ Daemon presents another Platonist tune.
This is Flashback, tracks from the past and I'm DJ Daemon. Going on with Platonist and Main Tune 6.

Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for the second medley of today. That's three songs that are short enough to fit together just great. We are going on with Carlos Del Alamo and Ego Wings Menyo. T, H, W, Y and Aftertest. And finally, it's Hyper Unknown and Goat Hurting.

DJ Daemon presents the next song.
That's a nice medley you got right there. We are going on with the next song and that would be Bit Bear and I Feel You.
Bitbear - I Feel You
DJ Daemon talks about Hyperunknown and his \"goatsongs\".
Just a short note about Hyper Unknown of Noise, a singer who loves to put goats in his titles. Very many of his songs, if not all of them, have some kind of goat name. The last one was Goat Hurling. And there's always a nice coverage there of great chip tunes, really. He is awesome. If you want to listen to more of him, go to ericade.radio and search for Hyper Unknown and you shall be given nice tunes.going on with hyper based and orb spoofing.
Hyperbased - Arpspoofing

It's time to say goodbye, and leading you into that great night, or good night, is, well, next song that would be Anders Hamre and the wrath of Aphrodite.
