this feature/mix was supported with a limited (100 pieces) promo-3,5?-floppy-disk
which was available for free at the a2n music congress ( www.a-2-n.de ) / berlin and contained an
audio-track that was generated from the voice-sampels of podcasters & radio-djs
from around the world who had spelled “headphonica” in their podcast/show.
you’ll find this audio-track as a hidden bonustrack for this compilation somewhere on this site.
go, find it.

ABOUT THE ACTUAL COMPILATION :
unusual is the new usual!
many of the tracks on this compilation were collected via myspace from the artists directly to create a second part of the pathbreaking "thanks for the add!" compilation we released in 2007.
unfortunately this vol.2-compilation project has never been finished nor released, just as other creative projects on the headphonica-netlabel, too.
nevermind. here it is.
at a time when myspace is shifting from being a platform for musicians presenting their works to a platform of multimedia-nonsense we'd like to say "thanks for the add, myspace!"
additionally you'll find a few tracks here that'll appear on albums on headphonica in the next months: enjoy!
what might seem weird here is that this album obviously has a kind of "wrong" numbering / track order.
in fact this compilation contains of 3 parts.
if you'd like to listen to the tracks in the intended order download them from here: http://www.headphonica.com/?p=1088 where you'll also get the full artwork [!]
otherwise you're free to mix them up here in a new way.

V.A.-"SEED64" is released through HEADPHONICA(Germany)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




There's more to this compilation than giving credit to our COMMODORE64 nostalgia, it is meant to show people who never owned a c64 or played it (or those who weren't even born in the late70s/early 80s)the sheer force that the featured c64 music had. Tim Follin,Ben Daglish,Mark Cooksey,Neil Brennan,Stephen Ruddy, Anthony Crowther,Martin Galway,Dave Lee,Rob Hubbard,Jason.S.Brooke,Peter Clarke,Jonathan Dunn,John Fitzpatrick,Chris Hülsbeck,Fred Gray and other c64 composers redefined the aural landscape of the 80s ,propelled the demo scene and thus helped democratize music on a global scale.This non-8bit tribute aims at acknowledging their greatness and the very tunes that became iconic.
