Retro Happenings

It is said that bad thing come in threes, however this is mostly said by superstitious people so I usually just ignore them. What I do know for sure, is that, recently Retro things come in threes.

First of all Tonight the lovely Anna Black is returning to the air waves (or the Internet waves, although air waves is still valid for Wi-Fi, I guess) on Slay Radio with the Anna Black – Anorak  

Secondly Thermostatic’s concent from Wonderland’s Summer Festival Season Warm Up at Storan in Gothenburg, Sweden will be played live on SceneSat radio.  Thermostatic are a favourite of mine and are  known for their SID-packed blip-blop sound with smooth female vocals

And finally Stone Oakvalley, the people who brought us the Stone Oakvalley’s Authentic SID Collection (SOASC) an amazing collection of MP3 Archive (154473 files) of music recorded from real C64s (6581R2, 6581R4 & 8580R5), and now bring us the Stone Oakvalley’s Amiga Music Collection(SOAMC=) project the world’s largest archive of authentic Commodore Amiga music! It’s 115342 MP3 tunes based on 157 different Amiga formats giving a total playtime of 196 days. Here’s a preview video;
