BIT Live 2026 Schedule
The schedule for the Commodore remix event of the year better known as BIT Live 2026 has been posted, and it's quite a doozy! There will be performances by Double Score Dungeon, NecroPolo, Jeroen Tel, Linus Åkesson (lft), and, of course, by FastLoaders! Ziona will also play a DJ set, there will be a C64 Café with SID music, and in-between SLAY Radio will be playing remixes on-site (they also plan to stream the entire event online).

by NecroPolo
NecroPolo has produced a stunning album which is built on a vintage prog-sound: from hard as nails to Rhodes-heaven, NecroPolo has got beneath the skin of the pieces and created something which is totally authentic to their spirit.
As if that wasn't enough, this album features the first ever C64-executable album cover, complete with classic scrolltext and the original SIDs that appear on the album, in one PRG!
And if THAT wasn't enough, this demo contains the first ever usage of a revolutionary new SID encoding format which enables any complexity of SID to be played back with minimal raster time, no matter how complex the player! Named SIDRIP, this routine was produced by Hermit specially for this demo, because pieces such as Scoll Machine or Rimrunner needed to feature in this demo, and their players were far too difficult to squeeze into a one-file demo.
Last Ninja - Palace Gardens (Loader)
Arranged by Tonka
For me, it just hits the right spot, and it hasn't lost any of its magic since I first heard it (I'm talking months ago). Again, absolutely my favorite remix/remake!

Comic Bakery (feat Hanna Kappelin & Morpheus)
Arranged by o2
The vocals are a VERY nice touch and the section of the tune where everything seems to go wrong and conk out is brilliantly done and definitely appeals to my somewhat warped sense of humour. The tune soon picks itself up after that and delivers and thoroughly lovely cover of Comic Bakery with fantastic powerful synth lead sounds, classy vocals, superb Kraftwerk-esque percussion, sexy sequencers and lots of other assorted ear-candy. Oh and it's a Galway track too - things just don't get much better than this!
To sum up, this is possibly one of the finest covers of Comic Bakery I've ever heard and this is definitely one of my favourite Commodore 64 remixes released in 2004 so far. Well done to everyone involved with this remix, it's gonna be a tough one to top I reckon!
Written by Kenz with a smile from ear to ear as he listens to this for the umpteenth time! 😃
