I rarely watch newfangled movies, but [this one] is surely a nice exception. The director definitely built it with a style. I like it. I even watched it twice. Progression of the movie. Cinematic, calm, philosophical, minimalist, harsh, violent, brutal, satisfying. OFFICIAL TRAILER spacedrone808 @Adobe spacedrone808 @Freepik

[Midnight Run] is certainly a good way to spend your Monday evening. First of all the movie has an entertaining story line and is really fun to watch. Here are some quick highlights as always: neat late 80s humour sunny and warm atmosphere throughout the film appealing bluesy transitions real explosions [not just CGI sh#t] OFFICIAL TRAILER spacedrone808 @Adobe spacedrone808 @Freepik

Excellent soundtrack from previously magnificent in terms of music game series. Some day i’ll drop an archive with the best music of the NFS series! NEED FOR SPEED IV ▀ PARADIGM SHIFTER [MELLOW SONIC REMIX] spacedrone808 @Adobe spacedrone808 @Freepik

Previously i was quite satisfied with the [iBasso DX240] / [FiiO FA9] conjunction. But after some evening conversations with [DeepSeek] and [Qwen] , I decided to purchase the [FiiO FA19] . The main problem is that I did not stop there and decided to go completely crazy and dive into the [HiBy R8 II] / [Empire Ears Odin] configuration. Now to the main essence of things. FiiO FA7 has lots of bass and quite lush, mushy mids and trebles.

UPDATED ON: 2024-12-13 [Terry Davis] was an exceptional programmer who created his own programming language, dedicated compiler, boot loader, operating system kernel [TempleOS] written in language he created, various graphical libraries without relying on external dependencies and borrowing. He can be considered as the father of 3D printing and designed a three-axis milling machine, but due to increasing schizophrenic incidents the project was abandoned. Toward the end of his life, he became difficult to understand, but was reported to be “always lucid” when the topic of discussion involved computers or other technical matters.

Despite the fact that i am a complete dummy when it comes to repairing computer boards i like to watch this awesome guy saving legendary machines one by one. Also, I know that a substantial amount of visitors to this website come here for Amiga related stuff and that was the primary motivation for this post. Moreover, it turns out that computer repairs are quite meditative and help me to distance myself from real life rave events happening behind my window and keep my brain clean and busy for yellow press “news”.

Not so long ago i stumbled upon a very nice [sadly abandoned] YT channel dedicated to retro hardware. In showcased video author reviewed [Rendition Verite] , a deeply flawed card which had the distinction of being the first “programmable graphics processor” or GPU for the IBM PC compatible computers. It was also pretty much the only card that could compete with the Voodoo1 when it was released. Also make sure to check [other videos of the channel] , they are very high-quality in terms of material presentation.

Some really progressive techno trance stuff dedicated to cyberpunk, virtual reality and AI things. PSYKOSONIK ▀ WELCOME TO MY MIND PSYKOSONIK ▀ SHOCK ON THE WIRE spacedrone808 @Adobe spacedrone808 @Freepik

Brilliant high quality review of a really interesting and compact SCSI card for those of you who want to keep your Amiga up to date. spacedrone808 @Adobe spacedrone808 @Freepik

Bring your museum 4.7Mhz XT machine up to the performance of an AT 286 machine. In those days, productivity gains were measured in times, not the measly percentage units that currently are common practice in the marketing world today. Adrian has done a very interesting review of such a rare accelerator. Thanks fly out to him, enjoy! spacedrone808 @Adobe spacedrone808 @Freepik

You can say what you want, but the fact that the 90s is the golden age of the coolest SciFi is an undeniable fact. Despite its rather simple and somewhat childish plot, [FIFTH ELEMENT] raises quite important questions about human existence. From a design point of view, I like the fact that the movie mostly shows real decorations, not just soulless computer graphics, which certainly adds analog warmth to the movie.

Very solid funky breakbeats from the master BT! BT ■▀■ SMARTBOMB spacedrone808 @Adobe spacedrone808 @Freepik

I think that [LOVE, DEATH AND ROBOTS] is quite overrated. Most of the episodes are true beauties in terms of drawing quality, but the plot leaves much to be desired in most cases. OFFICIAL TRAILER Here is a list of the most cool episodes by my standards. So you don’t have to waste your valuable time on obvious junk. ► Season 1 [Three Robots] ► Season 2 [Pop Squad] [Snow In The Desert] [All Through the House] [Life Hutch] ► Season 3

Is it Friday or not, for God’s sake? Here are some retro-O-matic tracks right in your years. For some reason, unlisted or private videos can’t be viewed on the mobile version of the site, although the desktop template works fine. I am investigating the matter.

For me, the [Atari Falcon] was as cool as the later Amigas. Some people claim that Falcon had less custom chips and less GFX capabilities compared to Amiga. On the other hand, Falcon was a bit faster CPUs in standard configurations, native MIDI support, but more importantly it had special sound DSP capable of 16-bit 48Khz sound output, the thing that was too cool even for Amiga. That is why computer was so popular in music studios at the time.

Despite the fact that i’m not a MIDI person, i find this video loaded with interesting technical and historical facts about the era. So, take a look if you have spare time! spacedrone808 @Adobe spacedrone808 @Freepik

If you were a fan of the original Fallout series, you already know Mark Morgan, one of the most unique composers of the 90s. His soundtrack for Fallout 1/2 has already status of a classic masterpiece in the game OST genre. Today I would like to introduce you to [Andrew Lahiff] . He makes exceptionally good space ambient tracks that sometimes resemble the atmosphere of Fallout. Just listen to these tracks:

A friend of mine introduced me to [Lebrock] band by sending me a tune he liked. I’ve searched YT and find out that crew is surely has multiple hits in their repertory. Here is a nice couple. LEBROCK ▀ HOLLOW LEBROCK ▀ STAR spacedrone808 @Adobe spacedrone808 @Freepik

The Amiga 4000 is a computer that was way ahead of its time, and this was true for many years in a row. The architecture had no competing alternatives for a very long period. Ability to install an additional processor through a special accelerator board. So in the end you own multi processor platform (in 1995!). Custom chips for hardware accelerated processing requests for I/O systems, sound, video. Three levels of RAM: fast memory (conventional ram), chip memory on the motherboard, the possibility to increase the RAM even more by means of Zorro III adapter.

Most of you are probably thinking why there are no posts for such a long time. I was quite overloaded with real life events. Anyways, here’s a bunch of atmospheric retrowave tracks for you.No junk, no fluff, only solid stuff. As always.

UPDATED ON: 2024-06-25 Forget about last two [or so] seasons, because they are complete boredom! As for me, i think that [YOUNG SHELDON] is a worthy prequel to [Big Bang TV-series] . Great warm analog atmosphere of 80s.Watched it excitedly in one gulp. A bit too pop, with rare deterioration in scenario quality but very solid in terms of actor performance and overall design. If you have bad mood for some reason this thing will fix you up at no time.

I’m not a big fan of [Godfrey Reggio] as a non-verbal filmmaker, because of dominance of marvelous [Ron Fricke] in this category. But [Once Within A Time] surely hit the spot in a right way. Unconventional mind cleaner at it`s best! Surrealistic post-apocalyptic analog tale with subtle digital flavoring introducing reality shaped into inner brain atmospheric vistas.
