“Scream for me PRESS PLAY ON TAPE!”
Join Auntie Anna live from sunny Kilburn, London for 3.09 hours of retro micro computer jolly fun and owl based chat on SLAY Radio (the home of Commodore 64* remixes.
This week she brings you an exclusive new track from PRESS PLAY ON TAPE from their upcoming sparkling new album “HOME COMPUTER”. (released on the 12th of May 2012) – Hot Dog! Hurrah! Get down to that Commodore 64 Revival Rock! The band listen in live during rehearsals live from Denmark (almost)!
There is more news of the Imperica Horizons ZX Spectrum 30th Anniversary events in London this coming weekend. Anna is making a Speccy hat. We also chat about Anna’s archiving of a collection of Basicode tapes which she has rescued from the Grodan – it’s “Esperanto for Computers” chaps! Listen intently to the dulcet tones of BBC cira 1984 across the crackly air waves. She also has a brain wave live on air. There are dangerous scientific-type experiments a’coming! We also chat about how home baking is killing Hovis.
Also many more jolliest micro retro tunes, and new releases from remix.kwed.org , and of course your online requests from the request bucket. Anna also continues the very first remix.kwed.org remix count down up (RCDU ™) playing every C64 remix tune ever released from 2000-2012.
There is of course the usual owl based fun, mouse organ and kazoo jazz styleeeee, mass shout out to listeners from IRC, Twitter, Facebook, and igloo. She also speed read performs the rather rallying passenger/pilot call-type-surreal introduction from Commodore’s Introduction to Basic (part 1) to the tune of Rune-Bertil’s Monty on the Rocks.
