93. Shadow party 2022 18.06.2022

This show was broadcast before the demoparty ended and thus we cannot talk about ev...

90. Modarchive, hit me one more time! 28.05.2022

Modarchive.org has a small, but active community that makes sure tracked music is saved for posterity. It has all the superb, awesome, great, good, mediocre, dismal and horrible music that the scene has composed. Or at least a lot of it. How do you know what good and what is not? Stars! The community awards points between 1-10 to everything they can. Today, DJ Daemon does another show based on the...

89. In loving memory of Vangelis 21.05.2022

Vangelis. The man behind Chariots of fire, Conquest of Paradise and the music in Bladerunner has left us. On the 17th of May, he concluded his work leaving it to posterity.
