Burglar Presents: 100% SID - Live At X2008

noreply@blogger.com (Scout/Silicon Ltd./Success/Onslaught) — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 11:45:00 +0100

It's not a new episode of 8Bit Mayhem (relax! it's in the works ;-) but something special.
In case you missed it, and if you did you've must be living under a rock, last weekend X2008 was going on.
Besides the fact it was an historical event for the C64 demoscene with the best democompetition *EVER* and awesome music and graphics releases, we also had Jeroen Tel and Reyn Ouwehand performing live.

Before Jeroen Tel did his energetic performance Burglar of Success and The Ruling Company was doing an excellent DJ-set using only SID's to warm up all those sceners.

And yes, you can download that DJ-set here!

If you need to get that X2008 partyvibe back, just listen to this set.
Oh, I know there are still a lot of unbelievers out there but every tune you hear in this DJ-set (and in the 8Bit Mayhem Podcasts too) is 100% SID!
No plug-ins, no synths, no effect-processors...'júst' 100% Commodore 64 SID power!

Episode #12 - Now in 320kbps!

noreply@blogger.com (Scout/Silicon Ltd./Success/Onslaught) — Fri, 25 May 2007 22:22:00 +0200

On public demand, I've started encoding the podcast in 320kbps!

Also the iTunes link is fixed. Updating the podcast from iTunes is possible now. Yay!

I have to edit the XML-file myself though because FeedBurner doesn't support mp3-files hosted on a ftp-server. :-(
This means for the non-iTunes users the FeedBurner RSS-feed is unusable for automatic podcast download. So try to use this RSS-feed instead.

Anyway, thank you all for supporting this podcast!

Here it goes...

Thanks to the people of Untergrund.net this podcast has more bandwidth and even mirroring.
Yay!

Prepare yourself for Episode #9 later this week.
Oh yeah!

Episode #8 - Special Birthday Episode - Jeroen Tel in the mix!

noreply@blogger.com (Scout/Silicon Ltd./Success/Onslaught) — Fri, 7 Jul 2006 15:05:00 +0200

Damn! Time flies when you're having fun or not.
Today it's my 34th birthday and instead of recieving presents, I give you one.

Episode #8 is a liveset performed by Jeroen Tel/Maniacs Of Noise which he did on March 24th this year on the dutch WeekendXL radioshow.
It was recorded by Earthshaker and I edited and cleaned it up a bit.

Okay then, enjoy the podcast and i'll be going on to the next 34 years. At least!

Episode #7 - A Tribute to Edwin van Santen

noreply@blogger.com (Scout/Silicon Ltd./Success/Onslaught) — Wed, 21 Jun 2006 20:12:00 +0200

It seemed today would be just another day at the office but then I opened the Commodore 64 Scene Database and noticed a new topic about Edwin van Santen.
First a rumour but later it was confirmed; Edwin van Santen aka EVS/20th Century Composers passed away on May 24th, 2006 due to lungcancer at the age of 32.

The news was recieved almost a month later by the C64 Scene.
Edwin quitted the scene somewhere in 1994 and moved on as a hardcore techno producer and lost contact with the C64 scene.
I'm not that familiar with that side of techno but reading the responses on several forums he was a quite wellknown and successful producer.

Edwin is no more but his music lives on.
He meant a lot for the evolution of the demoscene and inspired dozens of people to start composing on the C64.
That's why I dedicate this podcast to him and his music.

I hope you enjoy this one.
Maybe you discover that he made that tune that you always whistled on the way to school back in the days...

Edwin, rest in peace!

Spring is really kicking in here in Holland.
The time of barbeques and sitting outside with a cold beer has arrived.
To make the feast complete, here's episode #6 of the 8Bit Mayhem Podcast!

Also a small note to the (ex-)sceners outthere:
From 13th till the 15th of October SCS+TRC, Xenon and Silicon Ltd. will be organizing X2006.
The X parties have gained their place in C64 history, the X parties are the oldest party to date.
They are a mixture of sceners, from old farts to new school, from coders to crackers coming from all regions of the world.
Also this year Jeroen Tel/Maniacs of Noise has confirmed to do an exclusive live-site.
