SpongeBog Demo - The wackiest C64 tune you'll hear all week!

As you know Indie Retro News prides itself on mentioning games, teasers and compilations, but the latest C64 SpongeBog Demo by Max of Flat 3 Hackers was just too good to miss. This is one of the wackiest and most upbeat tunes I've heard on the C64 by far, and apparently the music is related to the catchy tune playing at the Spongebob Arcade Machine, which is located at Planet Fun, Ingoldmells.

Streamstock 2017 is a new event taking place January 20th. It's an online music and arts festival with a better lineup than Trump's Inauguration. 

 

 Streamstock 2017 is an online music and art celebration to rival the Inauguration festivities taking place the same day. It's boasts that it is an event “of the people, by the people and for the people”. The talent is as impressive as the idea. 

    To be able to watch Streamstock on Friday go to their Facebook page and hit the Use App button or look up Streamstock 2017 in Facebook Messenger.

Welcome to the story of the Commodore Amiga by Nostalgia Nerd - Part 2

Ladies and Gentlemen and Amiga fan boys around the world, Nostalgia Nerd is back with another Amiga video! Previously we mentioned the Part 1 video of ' The Amiga Story ' which went in great detail about the Amiga's history including the late 80's, the systems such as the A500 and the team behind the Amiga. But this time in part 2 Nostalgia Nerd is delving into the 90's, when the Amiga peaked,

Grateful Music's Facebook Page has hit a milestone of a 100K fans. To celebrate we are giving away Prizes.

  Our Facebook page just surpassed 100,000 music lovers. 

 

 More importantly out of that number 98.622% of our family are actually empathetic caring people. I have met some of my best friends while discussing music on the site. Hell, I met my roommate through the magic of our community. If I would have planned this company, it would have failed years ago. The magic that The Phish and the Dead create found it's way into our sandbox.  Since 100,000 is a big even number and it's the season of What Now? We are going to show how Grateful we are for our fans. Until next year we will be giving away authentic Phish and the Dead memorabilia out of my own personal collection. You could win a pair of tickets to see The Grateful Dead or David Bowie. (Time machine not included) 

 

 

 Or the Deer Creek show that Keller Williams and myself missed. 

 

Or it my be a ticket for a Grateful Dead concert for Fall tour in 1995. 

 

Basically the gifts will be like our website; you never know what you will find. 

 

 Over the last three years our sandbox has became Grateful Music Productions. This is all because you love music as much as we do. Our clubhouse is now a business and it's just keeps getting better. Sammy and I started this with one fundamental rule. Everything is not fucking epic. We wanted a forum where we could talk about our musical community honestly as we see it. We are not for everyone and that is fine. But since we stopped writing for the big boys and concentrated on what matters music and the love we bring. We have grown without being  own by the publicists. They are some of our biggest supporters. Five your ago we had almost 6,000 fans.  

       What makes us so proud is that you that us be a part of your lives and yet you still recommend us to your family. We are an organically grown company because we have never spent one dollar to promote ourselves. Subscribe to our YouTube page, Grateful Music Productions we have great content and we are just getting started. 

https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCUJelI7kf6fB8mHLYedR1vA Some contests the next few weeks will be given away on that platform only. The best is yet to come and good luck this week. Each prize will have a different contest. The only rule is if you get confused listen to the music play. Thank you for giving us something to do in between shows. We love you Kevin & Greg. P.S that ain't no monkey in the middle!

C4CPC Unboxing, Playtest & 3D Printed Case Assembly

It's been a big 18 months for the Amstrad community. Not only have we been treated to a plethora of great games, emulator updates and hardware mods; the much fabled GX4000 got it's own bit of retro-loving in the form of a flashcart, the C4CPC. Many 8 bit fans already to know of this, so here I take a look at this really neat bit of kit, show you the ropes (Roland style of course) and even take

Red Alert 2 remade in Unreal Engine 4 and featuring VR!

One of our good friends Ethan Knight has just come across a really eye opening bit of news, as the RTS classic ' Red Alert 2 ' developed by Westwood Studios and published by EA in 2000, has been shown off as a proof of concept in Unreal Engine 4 by Ádám Horváth. Not just that, but this seriously good RTS which is still very playable today, is being played using VR (HTC Vive in room scale mode)

I for one am a huge Amiga gamer, I have an Amiga 500, Amiga 600 and an Amiga 1200 each one ready for playing the best Amiga games either through a floppy drive or a CF card.

70 Gaming System Exhibits at PLAY Blackpool 2016

Among the original arcade cabinets, demonstration areas, trade hall and gaming competitions are the many consoles and computers on display and available to play

Score – Beautiful gaming music from the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra

As many of you know I am a huge sucker for gaming music, especially of the retro variety, and to come across well over an hours worth of gaming music done by the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, I was just a little bit taken back. In fact many of these gaming tunes are from some very well known titles, such as the more modern Assassins Creed Black Flag, Bloodthorne and Mega Man, but what

Revision 2016 - PC Scene Demo Category aims to impress

As I have already mentioned the Revision 2016 demo party, I wont go into too much detail other than it still being live with people around the world showing off their creative talent.

Amiga A600 Vampire II Update - SAGA Driver, and it's FAST!

As many of you well know, the Vampire II for the A600 has been out a little while now and there isn't one person I have personally spoken to that is disappointed with it. In fact it is so fast, that some have rushed to Facebook and showed benchmarks as bragging rights against the much older accelerators that even for their time were rather fast.
