Hello again, World! An #Introduction

I'm JBQ, 50-ish, he/him, French-born, currently moving from Spokane, WA, USA to Preveza, Greece.

I have worked on operating systems, browsers, SDKs, and similar tech, mostly for mobile. Most visibly, I managed the Open-Source aspects of Android from 2009 (1.6) to 2013 (4.3).

I am currently active in the Atari ST #OpenSource #DemoScene, as Djaybee from the MegaBuSTers.

My strongest languages are C and assembly (especially 68k). I've touched many more.

Psst: Wanna know about the secret correlation of sex, witches and ring modulators?
It will all be revealed at…

RADIO IRRTUM! (on air from Berlin)

↓↓↓ Deutsch Version below unten ↓↓↓

Yeah: Da next issue of #RadioIrrtum! will air this Saturday, 2025/06/07, 8:00pm UTC+2/Berlin time. At Alex Berlin FM at 91MHz / DAB+ K7D around #Berlin + worldwide at https://www.alex-berlin.de/radio-livestream .

#Radio Irrtum! is a German language #radioShow exploring the sonic vastness of the #underground. Emitted transmissions may raise attention for new unheard #music all over this planets genre spectrum. Don't worry about that #GermanLanguage - it's about the #music!

Music which this time may lean more than usual on the electronic side, as there will be…

- raw 'n also #glitchy #Pop
- #Demoscene #Garage
- free flowing #Acid
- swedish #Electro
- scratchy, breaky #Bass
- experimental #Electronica
- #industrial in various ways (#breakbeats, noise, #spokenWord)
- hardcore #punk
- even nature #soundscapes

Among others there will be #CreativeCommons music, & of course we'll have a bunch of #FediverseArtists in it as well. So shout outs to @sonicwalker, @h0ffman who was kind enough to let me have a (I think) #exclusive version (!) of one of his latest tracks, and especially to @rktic, like H0ffman an absolute Demoscene legend, who granted me the absolute pleasure of a deep diving interview about a lot of aspects of making music (right) with him.

I will post a link to the almost 40 min running #interview I've enhanced into #multimedial dimensions (no kidding – was more work than anticipated, but also fun) alongside the show within this threat here, when the time is right. It also has English subtitles (only here with editorial remarks).

And then there is that educational section about sex, witches and #ringModulation. Just saying. I mean - it's almost 2 min long, complete with music examples - where can you get secret knowledge about the inner works of the universe in under 2 min? Yes - at Radio Irrtum!

Anyway: If at least a bit interested in kewl new unusual #music, tune in! 📻

Playlist + manuscript + interview link afterwards here (provided I’m home, else it will come up the day after). And if you have questions? I'll gladly answer! Just ask!
CU all on Saturday! :)

↑↑↑ English version above, the Deutsche welche jetzt ↓↓↓

Radio Irrtum! kommt näher → Samstag, 10.06., 20:00 isses soweit auf Alex Berlin (FM 91MHz/DAB+ K.7D / Stream URL oben).

Genres:

- sorry, Zeychenlimit… s.o.!

Wird bestimmt heftig schön! Playlist + Manuskrpt nach der Sendung (spätestens Sonntag) hier drunter. Fragen einfach stellen – ich antworte (spätestens Sonntag)! Bis denne :)

I wonder about using "failscene" to describe the current slate of AI tools and demos. In contrast with the demoscene, which is about getting very low powered computers to do cool things you wouldn't expect them to be able to do, the failscene is about getting very high powered computers to fail at doing boring things we already know how to do without them. Plus you can stylize it fAIlscene if you're inclined to.

Playing the game: „Packing my #revision suitcase“
I am packing my Revision 2026 suitcase and I am taking a Psion Series 3a.

Now the next one continues and lists all the previous items in the suitcase!

#demoscene #ownmusic #chiptune #retrocomputing

Yeah, after just 27 years, I am again contributing to an official demoscene release (yeah, there is a point in time when you realize: indeed - life is short :) ).
I am part of

Rabenauge / Bitshifters: "Chipo Django #3"

a kewl 16 Bit #musicdisc with a twist: It's released on #AMIGA, #ATARIST and #ARCHIMEDES in parallel!

It feels unreal to be right between 2 kick ass tunes by FILIPPP and NOMISTAKE and on one disc together with legends like Vincenzo or Chavez.

More details at the Peertube description, including the download link of the disc image(s). AtariST/Amiga/Archi in one Zip.

This is my track only, the complete video recording of this disc will appear later on Youtube and the likes, I am sure.

Thanks to @bodohinueber (a superpowered Commodore coding wizard who did the Amiga port here) for having me!

I finally found one of my favorite PC demos from the 90’s after at least two decades of being unable to track it down because the details were lost to me. Anyway. This is a looping demo but it’s quite hypnotic.

What a banger!

And it's now in the playlist of the modstation, the 24/7 stream of only the best four-channel tracker music.

https://modstation.scandinavianretro.eu/

(I'd provide a link to the module in the mod archive, but unfortunately that seems to be down at the moment - insert image of me running around with my hair on fire)
