Internationally renowned iconic French electronic music producer Jean-Michel Jarre and the home of Commodore music remixes Remix64.com are proud to announce a new EP album featuring several remixes of 8-bit music originally made on the Commodore-64, a popular home computer of the 1980s, famed for its sound chip called SID or Sound Interface Device. All remixes on the album will be produced by Jarre himself, and the album will be made available on all major streaming platforms, and will also be available as a Commodore-64 music disk, in collaboration with Remix64.com.

In this look back at the history of the Commodore 64 remix and the origins of how far the scene has developed, Warren Pilkington (Waz) looks back at the 1980s, and how the synthesizer brought along the first commercially available remixes, along with the fact that Commodore 64 musicians themselves would often do a cover or a remix of a game theme or demo theme too, adding to the origins. Take it away Waz!

A charity album has been released in aid of keeping the Retro Computer Museum afloat during Covid lockdowns.

The fifty-one track album includes tracks by Rob Hubbard, Jeroen Tel, Allister Brimble and many other C64, Amiga, and many other Scene composers. All the tracks have generously been donated by the original artists and are fully licensed.

It is available for digital download or can be ordered for delivery on three CDs.
