From Finland, to… Argentina. It was time for Flashparty 2021 coming to your sofa from Buenes Airos. In this episode you get 14 streamed contestants and 4 tracked tunes in two compos than ran on that demo party.
Note: I’ve cut some of the songs down, due to not fitting the station and podcast format.
The song text for Bom, bom, bom:

Corrections:
I incorrectly call “Eren” “Fren” in the beginning of the show. Need new glasses.
The show:
00:00 ericade.radio – Time for another episode of Flashback – Tracks from the past
00:07 DJ Daemon speaks: If you like demo parties, it’s a great time to be into retro computing, music and artistery. This time it’s Latin America checking in! Flashparty 2021 was held in Buenos Aires, Argentina. It was held on the 3rd to the 5th of September 2021. So today, it’s a top list with 14 streamed tunes and then 4 old school. Place 14 is Fren and Fired friends with 66 points.
00:42 Eren – 14 – Fired Friends
02:25 DJ Daemon speaks: That was soft and smooth, and we move onto position 13 with Ray N. and Minus getting 83 points. This one join retro sounds and experimental vibes with a brutal bone cracking bass.
02:43 Ray N. – 13 – Minus
03:43 DJ Daemon speaks: Place 12 and Kamson or Ind gives us “Dreams we lost”. It is a tune getting lost here in the backside of the chart with 85 points. But it’s dreamy, airy and a soft.
03:58 Kamson – 12 – Dreams We Lost
07:12 DJ Daemon speaks: Left behind at place 11, “Qué hacé loco” by Fer is not really up to the task of impressing the voters. And maybe, it’s because there’s almost no song there. After my unfortunate encounter with the tire pumping Fins last week, I could need a break.
07:34 Fer (Alto Speech) – 11 – Qué hacé Loco
07:53 DJ Daemon speaks: I cut that short, as I want you to continue to listen. There’s nothing to that tune anyway. Place 10 has Javier Bilatz and Pista 98955. It gets 91 point and me wondering if I need to cut that one down as well.
08:14 Javier Bilatz – 10 – Pista 98995
08:18 DJ Daemon speaks: Ok, I put a kibosh on that one. Next up, let’s try music instead. Place 9 has another more ethereal tune called Electron by LIV. 103 points awarded.
08:48 LIV – 09 – Electron
11:11 DJ Daemon speaks: Let’s try some vocals that I cannot understand and that gives me some weird 90s vibes. Interesting. The name is De Comienzos and it’s by Checo. Place 8 and 105 points.
11:30 Checo – 08 – De Comienzos
14:37 DJ Daemon speaks: This one, Transistor Dance by Rytone belongs on the dance floor. 106 points and seventh place, get ready to cut a rug!
14:57 Rytone – 07 – Transistor Dance
17:48 DJ Daemon speaks: Did I just use 50s slang? Yes. I’m old (not that old). Now let’s spin Djames on the old vinyl player. Yes, I’m old (really that old) and the tune is called “It’s not synthwave”.
18:12 DJames – 06 – It’s Not A Synthwave
Flashpoint Argentina – Flashback, tracks from the past #51
20:34 DJ Daemon speaks: Time to slow down. Sure, why not. Uctumi grabs place 5 and 115 points with “Lost in the bitstorm”.
20:52 Uctumi – 05 – Lost in the bitstorm (party version)
24:04 DJ Daemon speaks: We have almost reached the medal position. But we must pass fourth place and listen to Reivens Tesseract. 120 points.
24:27 Reiven – 04 – Tesseract
29:28 DJ Daemon speaks: Just reached bronze position and it’s Cransky telling us not to @ him. The song is called just “Don’t @ me”. Not sure what that is,
