New Encore Album Premieres on SLAY Radio on Nov 28
The same blokes who already brought you two Encore albums roped in even more folks to work on Encore64 Volume 2
and they will be premiering their new album on SLAY Radio on November 28, 2024 at 20:00 (CET), so make sure to clear out your schedule for that evening! If you tune in, you'll be able to listen to many (if not all) of the tracks of the album for the first time, and several members of the Encore gang will be interviewed by Slaygon and Ziona, too. Be there, or be a square wave!
"Amiga Rocks" Release Party Concert Video
FastLoaders released their second triple-album Amiga Rocks
in the summer of 2020, an album entirely dedicated to the Amiga computer and its music. Due to COVID the release party of the album could not happen until the Back In Time Live party in October 2022 where the FastLoaders performed many tracks from the album together with several original composers, like Chris Hülsbeck, Tim Wright, and Barry Leitch. The video recording of that concert will debut on YouTube on Nov 23, 2024 at the link below.
Remix64 update: Unified Remixes, One Place for All Your Votes & Reviews!
We’ve just made a big improvement to how you enjoy remixes here on Remix64. As you might know, remixes appear in either category: C64 Remixes, Amiga Remixes, and Album Releases. However, this meant that identical tracks appearing in multiple categories ended up scattered, with separate votes, reviews, and comments for each version.
Now, we’ve streamlined the system! If a remix is available in more than one category, you’ll see it all in one place. All votes, reviews, and feedback on any version of the remix now count toward a single, unified spot—making it easier to see what the community thinks and to find everything in one place. Also you'll find links to the other categories of the same release on the remix page.
This means better organization, more comprehensive feedback, and less confusion for everyone. Go check it out and let us know what you think!
A double release can still compete in both Best Amiga
and Best c64
categories at the ROTY awards.
Remixers: if you have released or will release a track in multiple categories, let us know, so we can set you up. We've already linked up many past releases, but there are surely many more.

Instant Remedy
by Instant Remedy
The Dance Album. It's official. If you like dance, and you're reading this page, you'll love this. And if you don't like dance, well, you might love this anyway. It's that good. Highlights include the I never knew it was so good
covers of Last Ninja Palace
and Game On
, and an inspired re-rework of Comic Bakery. Pristine versions of Instant Remedy's most popular earlier remixes are included too. As played at parties across Europe! ** Now with a complete album FLAC download provided by C64Audio friend Daniel Martinsson! **

Forbidden Forest (post-rock remix)
Arranged by Gammagumma
Its not perfect. I could swear there's a guitar out of tune somewhere in there at the start, right of centre. Could just be my hearing of course, but it doesn't spoil the tune in any way. Sound quality is good, not great, although it is hard work arranging guitar based remixes just so.
Overall, it makes for compelling listening. Certainly worth a look for fans of both Forbidden Forest and slightly off-the-wall rock.
