Basen i botten

An acid album on tape, released 15 October together with the 12″ vinyl We Call it SJ. Get it on dataairlines.net or on Bandcamp.

Features acid like you’ve never heard it before! Acid schlager, pop vocals, yodeling, conga, TV-themes and acid ballads. The vinyl, on the other hand, delivers some classic pound-me-in-the-bass bangers and quirky 8-bit acid.

Cover design: Oscar JJB
Mastering: Dubmood
Video work: Pet Corp, Alma Alloro, BLDZR, Raquel Meyers
Additional vocals: Lillemor

The virtual acid reality karaoke show lets you sing one of the song, learn Swedish and go on an adventure with your VR headset!

The video by Raquel Meyers was previously only available in a burger, but has now been set free!

 

 

We Call it SJ

The vinyl single from the hit album, Basen i botten. Released 15 October. Get it on dataairlines.net or on Bandcamp.

The album features acid like you’ve never heard it before: acid schlager, pop vocals, yodeling, conga, TV-themes and acid ballads. The vinyl, on the other hand, delivers some classic pound-me-in-the-bass bangers and quirky 8-bit acid.

The Infinite Acid Machine

Me and Jacob Remin are teaching the robots to play acid. We recorded this video at Elektronmusikstudion EMS quite a while ago, but now they are about to do their debut show at Pukkelpop in Belgium. More to come! Thanks to Daniel Araya for helping out with this project.

More robot music

A ChatGPT-demo?!

Yes indeed, check this out! Still 93 by Divine Stylers and Style. It’s a demo made to feel like it’s from the 1990’s, coded by ChatGPT as instructed by dMG who is not a coder. Makes so much sense, right? :)

There is more info at the GitHub page. I made some of the music, Skope did the rest of the music. It came at 10th place at the Evoke demoparty, where I also released an ASCII/ANSI thing.

 

Pukkelpop in Belgium

Hey, you know Pukkelpop? It’s Belgium’s second biggest festival, I’ve been told? I will be there this year to make some stuff in the E-rena.

Me and Jacob Remin will premiere the new Infinite Acid Machine, which is the robots making acid! That is, they will be controlling a 303 and a drum machine, instead of the boring C-64. We will also do a talk about all this robot-y stuff. Yeeeep.

And with PET.CORP I will perform a live show with me doing my chip rave acid thing whatever, and PET.CORP doing their so super yummy textmode PETSCII visuals. They are amazing, and I’m not bad, so together we are OK++!

See you där!

(uh, we will of course not play on some mega stage like this, but in a cool big tent instead)

New ASCII for PC!

I’ve released a new ASCII-thing in Impure 85! This time I’ve tried to work with code page 437, popular on the IBM PC. It has different characters than the Amiga, such as the useful block gradients: ▓ ▒ ░. The font is designed differently, so for example the / and \ don’t connect to each other. Boooo! I think I wrote a bit about the differences in this paper.

Anyway, this has been added to my MEGA ASCII PAGE where you can go and scroll into the abyss!

text-mode.org back in action

The text-mode Tumblr that I started with Raquel Meyers in 2012 has hardly been active in the last years. But I started to do daily posts again a few weeks ago. You can see it both at the Tumblr and the wordpress blog and sometimes they are posted on Twitter as well.

I’ve gone through a lot of the archives, and scheduled some of the best posts to be reblogged daily over the next weeks… months… eh.. In fact, they are scheduled until June next year. And I didn’t even go through all of it yet.

If you don’t want to miss it, check the Tumblr. Sometimes they will be on Twitter, but the reblogs will never be posted on the WordPress since that is more like an archive. On the other hand, it’s a lot of fun to go there for random posts, combine tags, search, etc.

Ok, hasta luego!
