Episode #12 - Now in 320kbps!

On public demand, I've started encoding the podcast in 320kbps!

Also the iTunes link is fixed. Updating the podcast from iTunes is possible now. Yay!

I have to edit the XML-file myself though because FeedBurner doesn't support mp3-files hosted on a ftp-server. :-(
This means for the non-iTunes users the FeedBurner RSS-feed is unusable for automatic podcast download. So try to use this RSS-feed instead.

Anyway, thank you all for supporting this podcast!

Here it goes...

Tracklisting

Lou Gray - Yakki Da (1988)
Metal - Sayonara (1990)
Jeff - Commodore 64 (2004)
Fanta - Desert Dream Part 2 (2007)
Aleksi Eeben - One For Reed (2006)
Fred Gray - Mutants (1987)
Laxity - Laxace (1987/88)
Orcan - A Demo Bit (1996)
Jammer - Latex Sensations (2004)
Reyn Ouwehand - Dutch Breeze, FLI Scroll part (1991)

Jeroen Tel - Sonic Soul (2006)

Download the cue-sheet.

EDIT 27-5-2007: Re-recorded Fanta's tune with a real C64 equipped with a 8580 SID instead of using the HardSID (also with a 8580).
Mp3-file is updated. You might wanna download it again... if you wish.

nice selection of tunes like always BUT: the melody from 0:47 in desert dream part II is totally fucked up with stucks! should run on 8580 smoothly. update possible?

Hey scout,

thanks for another great episode! ;)

Although I had some problems with your cue sheet - it wont't play in Foobar2000 and also the track index times were wrong (guess because CDDA uses 75 frames per second). I recreated the cue sheet:

8bitmayhem-episode12-fix.cue

I'm also having problems with the iTunes playlist (it couldn't find the mp3s). Can iTunes really play files from ftp?

Greetings,

freQvibez

Great podcast, as always, scout

BUT please dont use 320kbps mp3, i have 3 portable mp3 players, and all suck at playing that high bitrate!
besides, such high bitrates makes mp3 a bit pointless...

Nice to have them in 320kbps now!
Any chance of re-posting the JT liveset in 320kbps?
Also the version on 8bit mayhem seems a little to loud (recorder over 100% volume)....

I've just stumbled onto this site after looking through various SID websites and I think it is one of the best. Thanks for putting so much effort into these podcasts, and i hope you can keep it at 320 kbps. However if there are those whose media player can't handle it 192 kbps is a fair compromise.

Again sir, I appreciate your hard work.

Thanks
