🎤 Production Notes
I recorded this on a Friday and came home the next day. I wasn't sure I would be home in time to record it. So there...The picture shows Flight simulator 2020 flying over Stockholm. I flew it into position, and then snapped the picture with the "Print screen" button.ColophoneAn old joke of mine and explained in the episode description as well: "The fly-over states in the USA are those that the planes flying above will just pass, on their way to bigger cities in more populated areas. And the latter part of July and the first weeks of August are like that."
Transcript
Flashback – tracks from the past – Show intro
Welcome to another episode of Flashback, Tracks from the Past, the show that takes you back to the golden age of the tracked music scene. Welcome to the flyover territory of the year, that is half of July and the first part of August. It's Saturday today and it's the 24th of July. Today got nothing going on except the new music coming into the station and my apology for the movie going on here in the background. Ah, yeah.That's my father watching something cool.
DJ Daemon speaks about the show and the movie going on in the background.
Alexander Brandon – Streetwize
DJ Daemon speaks briefly about Jazz Jackrabbit and Alexander Brandon.
Alexander Brandon, Streetwise, music from the game Jazz Jack Rabbit. And Mr. Brandon has written the music for a lot of the songs, if not all of them, from Jazz Jack Rabbit 2. Later on he went on to compose music for games such as Dust and Elysian Tale. But Jazz Jack Rabbit is something of a staple here on the station. We played a number of the tunes from the game previously.
Algar – ! Lust For Life !
And that would be a GOAT, plus it's Algar, last four in life. Demo parties, we have had a number of those. A really hectic spring to summer. In April we had Revision 2021, May Shadow Demo Party 2021, June Fondata 2021, and in July Gubbdata and Edison Party 2021.We covered all of them and from Edison we also broadcast live. And we missed some of the parties alas, but we can't be everywhere anytime at the day. So what's coming up? Well, August gives us 10 parties. September 4 and October 3, but I looked into the demo scene.site here and the only thing that seems to be from Sweden and in Sweden is ACGG Summer Hack 2021 and Syntax Society Summer Hack 2021 both in August.
DJ Daemon mentions the Revision-, Forndata-, Gubbdata- and Shadow- demoparties.
Anders Lundqvist – On the run
Lundqvist on the run. If you're going to a demo party this autumn, please go to DemoParty.net first just to check the details. told you a little bit about some of the demo parties a few minutes ago, but some of them might actually require a club membership or a fee or something and dates are sometimes changed and sometimes the parties are cancelled. So again, check out the details before really planning anything.
DJ Daemon speaks talks about demoparty.net.
BigBadBoo – Dance With A Daemon
Big Bad Boo, Dan's with a Daemon. You can probably guess why I chose that title.For anyone who wonders what a demon is, I don't mean demon is, well, you know, Satan's little helper or something, I mean demon spelled D-A-E-M-O-N. By the way, that's my handle. Yeah, that is either a helper process in Linux or Unix running stuff in the background, and that's kinda how I chose that name. But it can also be a spiritual attendant of some sort, interpret it in a way you wish.
DJ Daemon explains what a “Daemon” is.
Chuck Homic – Chuck's Song #8
DJ Daemon speaks about some new functions coming to the website.
Chuck song number 8 by Chuck Honnick. And things are getting better. In a few weeks to maybe a month we will unveil a number of new functions for the website. You will be able to see details about the artists and the songs. You will also be able to vote for songs you cantype your own comments on them and in the future a request system will go into effect so to speak what you do is you search for a song you like and you request it and then stay tuned and within one hour the station will play it just for you mmm and everyone else listening of course
BST – 1995-BYTver
DJ Daemon speaks about the 36 year anniversery for the Amiga 1000.
IS-T and 1995 Byteware. If you read Generation Amiga and an article published yesterday, you get the following information. The Amiga 1000 was launched on July 23rd, 1985. That's yesterday and add 36 years. Well, Commodore brought the Amiga to the public eye in the Star Studded Gala featuring Andy Warhol andDebbie Harry at the Lincoln Center in New York City. Well, honestly, Amiga 1000 wasn't even called that. It was just called Amiga. Later on when they released the 500 and the 2000, they had to give it a name, so a 1000 sounded good. Yeah, I know we told you this before, but well, that's a little bit of a milestone for us Amiga geeks.
Darkman007 – Chipo Five
DJ Daemon speaks about Workbench 3.2 and the many diskettes it has.
Darkman007, Chippo5. I'm back from my vacation, so I haven't planned much, but before I went, two weeks ago, I actually got my Workbench 3.2 or AmigaOS 3.2.Complete with kickstart runs for my Amiga 3,1200. Yeah, of course I tested them. And I must say, everything gets better and better. And bigger and bigger. I'm amazed how many disquettes this set has now. Back in my day it had like, I don't know, four five at tops. Most of them were kinda extra stuff. Now I kinda lost count on eight disquettes.It has a number of help file systems and stuff, so... Yeah, even Amiga stuff can become bloatware.
DigiDz – Destiny
DJ Daemon wonders if we should continue having a live DJ.
Diggy DZ, Destiny. You haven't heard much of me this summer. Somewhere around July I stopped broadcasting live. And question is, do people want to hear that? Well...I put up a poll on Discord and it has not had many people answering it, but I have sourced information from other people, asked them pretty much. And it seems like people are mostly positive to have a DJ that's me talking, but it's not that important. I guess the station is more for the music than anything else and I'm fine with that. The podcast of course is different, but...Yeah, maybe it's better to put more effort into better, more and nicer music. We'll see.
Djarty – Four wheel drive
DJ Daemon talks about the start of the station.
DJ Artie 4WD as we are getting closer to August. It's almost a year ago. Well it was in the early August when I said I want to create an Amiga show on YouTube. It would be an hour of me playing Amiga tunes and talking about them.As I was searching for some software to play the music I came across something called Play It Live and found out that hey, you can use this to broadcast to create a real radio station. And now, here we are. Somewhere around September, it will be one year since the start station started. I will try to find out some cool way to celebrate that.
e!ghtbm – Rainbow crash 80s
DJ Daemon speaks about Flashback – a game soon to get a sequel.
8bm and rainbowcrash80s. You will get absolutely no point for figuring out why this podcast is called Flashback Tracks from the Past. The slogan should be easy and the first word flashback is of course a reference to the Delphine gameFlashback from the early 90s and news is in from generation Amiga that microids announces Flashback 2 is in production. Yes a sequel is coming your way soon. yes, this is news from the May of the 2021 so I don't know what's happening right now, but well according to Amiga generation AmigaIt will launch in late 2022, so yeah, we have to wait.
Goluigi – Luscious late night in legoland (Read title seductively)
DJ Daemon promises NOT to read anything seductively. Then hates a bit on AmigaAMP.
There is an instruction here. Read title seductively. No, I'm not gonna do that. Nobody wanna hear me read anything seductively. I'm pretty sure of that. At any rate, I some interesting things that really makes me wanna tear my hair off my head. That would be Amiga Amp. I have fought.trying to get that piece of, well, something program running on my Amiga 3000 and my 1200. It just will not work, it crashes. It's like, hm, okay, so you solved that problem. Now I'm gonna find another reason to crash. Yeah, of course I could use my VLC player on my PC, but that's no fun.
Jaim of Fuj – Chippie
DJ Daemon thanks you for listening.
of Fooey with Chippy. I think it's a chip tune. Yeah, I'm just kidding. Of course it is. But it is actually Jackim, if you didn't know another name for some reason. Well, we have very little time left of this podcast or this broadcast hour. So thank you for listening and next week we will be back with some more, well, topic episode, so to speak.This is DJ Daemon and I'm signing off right here right now. Two songs to go, Jogeir Liljedahl, Com Jazz, and we are exiting into the good night with Maxsoft, whelps and the dark team, Amiga Power.
Jogeir Liljedahl – Comm-jazz
DJ Daemon speaks leds you out into the good night.
This has to be the smoothest song ever made for any kind of tracker platform. That's my opinion. So bye bye for now then, and remember we will be back next Saturday at 9pm CET.
Maxsoft of Whelpz and Dark team – Amiga power

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.
- 87.0 MB
- 91 185 058 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.
- 1:01:49
- 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.
- 197 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.
- −10.9 LUFS
- on the loud side
- 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.
- 2.0 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.
- 3.6 dBTP
- close to the ceiling - may distort on some players
- 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 9
- 9.0 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.
- −13.2 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.
- −13.2 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.
- 0.03 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.
- −9.9 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.
