Episode 050: Redefining ‘infrequent’ since 2005

Wednesday, December 21st, 2011

Ho-ho-ho! Christmas comes a few days early this year. After passing my project manager exam on December 13th, I cleared the mountain of books and papers off my desk and started preparing this episode. In honour of this being the 50th show(!) here’s almost an hours worth of sonic delight – five remixes and five [...]

Episode 049: Everybody set the 8-bit spirit free

Tuesday, October 4th, 2011

Greetings programmes! After another massive delay caused by too much going on at work, causing me to relax (among other things) in front of the Xbox rather than sit down in front of the microphone every month or two, here’s the first episode of 2011(!). Hopefully making up for the radio silence with nine carefully [...]

Episode 048: And then there was one

Tuesday, December 14th, 2010

In return for your patience with my completely erratic publishing schedule here is a little something for your Christmas stocking. Sadly, the (huge) delay is partly caused by the podcast going back to its single-host roots, as Makke has had to cancel his co-host gig. That being said, here’s eight carefully selected tunes that should [...]

Bad News, Everyone!

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

As some of you might have seen on our twitter feed, Operation Fatherhood has forced Makke to shelve his co-hosting of the #C64 Take-away. I only learned this a week ago myself (not the fatherhood bit – that’s been out in the open for a while) – and the news was a bit of a [...]

Episode 047: Just in time for Christmas

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

Just in time for Christmas, Makke and Jan skip an obvious opportunity to pour themselves a generous helping of glühwein. Instead they get all serious (well, not really), and cook up a delicious Commodore 64 styled music burger for you: Two Christmas tunes make up the bun, a solitary SID chiptune provides the dressing, and [...]

Episode 046

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

Just when you thought the C64 Take-away was back on a regular schedule, Makke and Jan go and mess it up again – this time blaming it on being extremely busy at work. To make things better, the lads provide you with the longest show so far, clocking in at just over an hours worth [...]

Episode 045

Thursday, July 9th, 2009

Holy rapid release schedule, Batman! Another C64 Take-away already? Makke and Jan are back to entertain you with even more carefully selected C64 SIDs and remixes – including an 8-bit tribute to the man who came up with the moonwalk, and a trip back to the early days of remixing. Also, we talk about the [...]

Episode 044: Two hosts at the price of one

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

Makke is back for another co-hosted episode, coming at you from cloudy Malmö, Sweden. This time we bring you no less than three tunes from the new "Sounds of SceneSat" compilation, along with some other remixes, and a great SID tune by AMJ. Plus, we catch up on whats been happening in the world of [...]

Episode 043

Sunday, October 19th, 2008

Okay, so you’ve waited patiently for a new episode to come out before. But never this long. Tune in to hear what could possibly distract me from producing an episode for over four months (hint: it involves lots of people, a church, and saying "I do!"). Plus news, feedback, and the usual funky fry up [...]

Episode 042

Monday, June 2nd, 2008

Just when you thought it was safe to unsubscribe, the C64 Take-away is back to serve you another nutritious audio fry up. Once again I stumble my way through the English language, bringing you carefully selected Commodore 64 SID tunes and remixes, lovingly spiced with news on whats happening in the world of Commodore-related music.
