10 years Remix64.com

Remix64 Officially launched on 17/04/2001: We are now open…

With this news item, our website began its service, ten years ago to the day. That seems like ages ago, yet just like yesterday.

To celebrate the event, Remix64 is dressed in its authentic vintage 2001 look.😊

LMan says: In the end of 2000, Tas had presented his beta online magazine project, already named Remix64, to the c64rmx newsgroup. At the same time, I was planning for a companion site to the then young remix.kwed.org. It was meant to host the community aspects like voting, a messageboard and so on. That seemed like a perfect combination, so we happily joined forces and worked hard to get the site online. Today, I can say I'm happy that we lasted this long, which is an eternity in modern standards. Thanks for all the great support during the years!

Tas says: Remix64 became reality due to two very similar minded individuals who were working on two very similar ideas. Once we got wind of each others projects it seemed a no brainer that we should work together and thus the first incarnation of Remix64 was born. It, I believe, wouldn't have worked if it wasn't for the co-operation and the way LMan and I worked as a team. Over the last decade Remix64 has gone through several variants and grown up from it's first humble beginnings to what you see today. On the day Remix64 celebrates it's 10 year anniversary I'm proud that the website keeps on going and the support the scene has given has been truely magnificent. It's you guys reading this which is why it just keeps on going. We wouldn't have lasted 10 years with out your support!
Thank you, Neil aka Tas.
