ericade.radio - Time for another episode of Flashback - Tracks from the past

DJ Daemon talks about the most popular artists on the station.
Time for some numbers, yes. If you listen to this station, the 24-7 station on Ericad.radio, you will have heard a lot of good artists when it comes to track music. But popular beyond no belief would be Alistair Brimble. He is the most famous artist on this station.A lot of people are giving him the 5 stars treatment. And on second place it would be Slash_AtD, Russian artist. Also with the 5.0 stars coming in. And on third place it would be Arachno. And on fourth place it would be Archangel. A lot of good stuff coming your way. So go to Ericade.radio. We are going on with some music. It's a platanist and a playground.
Platonist - Playground
DJ Daemon mentions the A1200 again.
We some news for you. We spoke about the Amiga 1200 Retro Computing Console that's called the A1200. And I didn't really mention the release date, but now we know. It's going to be released on June 16, 2026. It's about half a year from now. And I don't know, I'm kinda looking forward to that. I don't know how about you.really have an old Amiga 1200 as well, so maybe I won't be buying that. I don't know, we'll see about that. We are going on with some music, it would be soon and... Sol Release!
Zoon - Soul release
DJ Daemon tells you to go to ericade.radio.
We're pushing a lot of new music into the station every month and sometimes every week depends on kind of when we have the possibility to do so. So you can expect a lot of nice stuff, even new track music coming into the station. Go to ericade.radio slash stats to see the latest tunes that have just entered the whole station and enjoy them.And we're going on with Ether audio and polymeter polymer.
Ether audio - Polymeter polymer
DJ Daemon mentions, well, plastics.
Polymeter polymer a lot of plastic in your music Well, I guess the whole thing of plastic is kind of what you expect from the Amiga the Atari the PC back in the days It was a pretty plastic kind of thing going on right there. We are going on with the Vyraxor and the hidden paradise
Viraxor - Hidden paradise
DJ Daemon struggles to pronounce the next artist.
This is gonna be a dozy. Quite a name to pronounce on the station. It would be the XBALL212099 Marco.N That's the name of the artist. Yes, I'm not making that up. It's kinda his name, obviously. And the song is called Understand Me.
Xball121299 Marko.n - Understand me
DJ Daemon again reminds you to go ro ericade.radio.
I'm DJ Daemon giving you flashback tracks from the past. Thank you for listening and remember that everything good can be heard on ericade.radio if you want to hear all the 24-7 music. Everything that you hear on this podcast will be up there in a few moments. We are going on with Taito of Plum and Pizza Hut.
Tito of Plum - Pizza hut
DJ Daemon notes the problems with finding the name of the artist.
Finding the artists of a tune on the tracked scene is kinda a challenge. There is no artist field in the tracked music files. So you have to look into the comments, have to look into the internet and trying to find out who made that good tuner you're playing. And sometimes you can't find it. So that's why we have a category called tracker music artist. And yeah, well, that's...Next up is a tune by an artist that may have selected a name that is super hard to Google for. It would be Ukulele and Copperworld.
Ukulele - Copperworld
DJ Daemon presents the next artist.
Seems like the Platonist is really popular on ModArchive these days. We're looking into the highest rated songs and also some things that are coming up as a spotlight on ModArchive. Just to find the good stuff. And we are not accepting them just because they are good. We are listening to them and trying to find out what's nice.Anyway, we are going on with Platonist and I will the instrumental version. I don't know. Do we have a non instrumental version? I haven't found
Platonist - I will (Instrumental)
DJ Daemon talks about the first tracker software there ever was.
If you're not keeping tabs on the whole demo scene so to speak, let me clue you in. It was in 1987 that the first tracked music software came out. It was called the Ultimate Soundtracker and it was by Kirsten Koch who created this fantastic piece of software. And a lot of people copied it, created their own versions and the whole demo scene just evolved around it basically.So we are still doing this and well, here's another track music piece of really nice stuff. It's a phaser of Rage and Zenith.
Fajser of Rage - Zenith
DJ Daemon presents the second medley of today.
Good news everyone, it's time again for a medley. It's the second medley of today and it starts out with Warhawk and Thor's Rico C and Moments and finally it's Jörgen J.C. Rothschild and Lost Honor.

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.
- 84.8 MB
- 88 887 000 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.
- 1:01:30
- 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.
- 193 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.
- 2.1 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.
- −2.6 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
- 10.5 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.
- 0.02 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.
- −12.3 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.
