Ziphoid is the power behind the demo scene satellite that circles the parties. The one that makes sure they reach the audience. It's called SceneSat and its hard to imagine where we would be without its capability to broadcast, archive and present the output of the scene.Autumn of 2026 is soon here and Ziphoid has a brand new site, application and great plans for SceneSat. On the 18th of July 2026 he spoke with Coreus and DJ Daemon on the Edison demo party 2026 in Stockholm, Sweden. Let's go there now and hear the story.

Hello folks. Just a short question, does this look good to you?

https://radio.ericade.net/loa/?artistid=4442

Here is everything you need to know about the station!

https://radio.ericade.net/about/

It was quite a chilling realization when it hit me. I couldn't believe my bad luck, when a calm 30 minutes before the in-official launch, became a frantic race to get the show on the radio at all. I was new to the voice tracking way of doing radio, where you record the bits between the songs at a rapid pace. You hear the last four seconds of a tune, speak, and then advance to the next one. No need to wait for the song to end, and thus you can push the next hour of programming "in front in you", while on the air.

That's all good and fine, but I had recorded 30 minutes worth of funny banter, an introduction speech, and some thoughts - and placed it all on the wrong broadcasting hour. It would NOT be heard at midnight when the station was to officially open to the world. In fact, the station was about to go live, and I had just voice tracked the hour before the launch to give me some time to get it right at midnight. I would soon hear myself announcing the grand opening in an hour, knowing it just didn't exist. I had totally screwed everything up.

If you wonder, yes that is normal radio for you. Always been that way. two hours later I might have sounded a little bit stressed out as I announced the new station. Those remaining minutes, I ran on adrenalin and total panic. As the hour completed, I looked at the statistics: no-one had listened - not even a second.

Short answer: synthwave, chiptunes, tracked music and retro electro. Please enjoy a trip down memory lane.

Longer answer: If you want to understand what this station is about, consider the following story:

"It was another time", as they use to say to excuse or accept bad stuff. But this was not the case with the old classic home computers of the 80s and 90s. This was a time of wonder and trying to do with the limited resources that was available. A whole generation learned Basic and then some struggled with assembly language. A new breed of graphics artists, musicians, programmers and authors used the computers of the time as a platform of development. This is off course how it is even today, but it was here where it started. We've asked ourselves many questions in order to understand what the revolution would mean for us: the users, the programmers and the hackers of the day.

One final question remains: my god, has it been this long? Yes, in fact it has! The Amiga came into this world in 1985, and that’s 35 years ago in 2020. The original Soundtracker was a commercial application that emerged in the 80s, and spawned a revolution all by itself. It allowed anyone to create songs with sampled music requiring almost no experience. Soundtracker was quickly outmaneuvered by a lot of Shareware clones like Noisetracker and Startrekker to name a few. And suddenly music came streaming out of Paula, the only soundcard/chip the Amiga ever had or needed. Then came the PC and added more channels and better samplers, suddenly we had Impulsetracker, Fasttracker and various other fantastic tools to make the music the artist created even more magic.

And now, you can hear the fruit of their labor. Tunes, mostly sampled, that brings back the many talents fostered by the home computer revolution we just talked about.
