  • HVSC Update #52 released

    The end-all be-all collection of Commodore 64 SID music has seen its classical christmas release this year again and it’s packing!

    874 new and 65 fixed SIDs is what you will find here, extending the grand total of tunes to 37.081!! Surely a ton of music to while away this relaxed xmas-y  weekend.

    I recommend you to hear the tunes in the update folder before proceeding updating the collection to make sure you don’t miss a thing.

    The HSVC is located a click away

  • C64.sk’s LAST COMPO

    Every year’s autumn for the last 8 years, super Commodore 64 news portal from Slovakia, C64.sk, runs the SID Compo, C64 scene’s biggest online music competition.

    It has now been announced, the LAST installment of this compo, starting now and ending by end November. Each year the amount and quality of releases has been rising a lot, so I bet this time, being the last one, it will be no exception, with everyone wanting to make the SID Compo leave us with quite a loud bang.

    Get updated about it on the compo page at CSDb, and join if you want to.

  • CCS64 Now Supports the Hardsid4u

    Floppies? No stinkin' floppies.

    According to the Hardsid Yahoogroup, the C64 Emulator CCS64 now supports the Hardsid4u.

    ” I”ve not been reading the list for a while, just noticed my email
    address is bouncing. I don’t think this was mentioned yet though:
