Today, about 55 percent of all tunes on Ericade.radio are Amiga 4 tracker modules and the percentage keeps dropping. Since Amiga is the starting point of it all, I wanted to go back to the roots of tracker music and this station. So, here are two hours jampacked with great tunes that graced the Amiga during the early 90s that you never heard on Ericade.radio before today!

So long, 2021! DJ Daemon broadcast this show live on 2021-12-31 at 9 PM CET as per usual. And this is mostly the music and some commentary on selected tunes by some of the other tracker artists on Modarchive. All read loud by an amused DJ Daemon. No need to sum up 2021, we did that a few weeks ago. Instead, enjoy the music and some words at the end by me. This is the second hour out of three.

Careful! The Covid19 is still lingering. But 2022 is here as well and we're cautiously optimistic about it. New demoparties coming up, AmigaOS 3.2.1 is here and Hyperion helps all of us that lost our serial keys, The request feature is delayed and DJ Daemon talks about some upcoming demoparties.

Get your boots! We're marching on Nizhny Novgorod in Russia for this years DiHalt. The music from the east dominates this episode totally and it's by artists you generally don't hear on this podcast. You also get to enjoy the best from the ZX Spectrum scene in a separate top list. An all over great collection of the best tracker music right now!

For this weeks' episode, we look into the creative works of elusive artist E!ghtBM, which we don't know so much about, really. But his music speaks volumes of his talent. DJ Daemon delves into the most popular among his compositions and comments on them as well.

All tracked tunes has instrument list, used to name the samples. These are often used to instead write comments and greeting by the artist and some are quite creative and sometimes insane. DJ Daemon reads some of the instrument lists and comments on ModArchive and discusses them briefly. This puts an extra dimension to the tracked tunes. Maybe not the most legendary comments ever made, but some a quite interesting and amusing.Here is the file talked about in the episode:https://ericade.radio/files/true_devotion_ii+club_trance_rearrangement.mod

"Just one more turn" has been the bane of students, people with work in the morning and anyone looking for some sleep. DJ Daemon tells you the story of Sid Meiers Civilization 1 and the stories of a brutal and violent Gandhi, how the game seemed hard to learn for the first seconds and then was impossible to stop playing and exactly where the famous slogan comes from.Correction: the game was released in 1991, not 1990.

Yesterday "Cheesy Listening" hit the retro world like a bombshell. A brand new music disk with Virgill rocking it with lots of new chip tunes. Today DJ Daemon gives you the best of a that music disk AND the previous projekt of Virgill, Chipo Django. Which is the better music collection for the Commodore Amiga. One rocking mouse goes up against a raven looking back at him.

We did a jazz-episode last summer, so inspired from that, we now look into the big collection of classic tunes and classic sounding tunes made on all kinds of trackers on PCs and Amigas. It's soft piano concerts and big symphonies. DJ Daemon talks a bit about the tunes and reads comments from users on Modarchive.So sit down, sip some red wine and feel a little more sophisticated in front of your radio.

Last week it was classic music. And today DJ Daemon lets his hair down. What little he has left, that is. It's time for a party at the barn. It will go on until the cows come home, if anyone is still standing, that is. Today, we play bluegrass and country and western, as envisioned by the scene's tracked artists.Note: today marks the 27th anniversary of DJ Daemon entering the airwaves on a regular basis. This is worth celebrating as well.
