    A good friend of mine is a game designer who designs actual games, and recently he asked me for one little favor which made me feel honored at first but also a little clueless on second thought, stressed in the process and eventually set me under creative pressure. But in the end everything turned out well…

    Oh my god — it’s a bonus level! It’s a bonus to past BleepCast levels where I want to add a few of things or just pop in particular personal perspectives. And now there’s finally a way to do so! This bonus level deals with some awesome music for the SNES I totally forgot to play; and then there was this… misconception in BleepCast Level 1 that I need to fix — bleep-style!

    This is the BleepCast on Rob Hubbard, part two. Everything you want to know about the man that taught the Commodore 64 to produce grand sound-scapes and catchy tunes amidst the incoherent 8-bit turds coated with incompetence in the early 80′s. We will hear his later music, hear him talk about his time in the US and why he eventually came back. Don’t miss it!

    Two words that describe this and the next BleepCast: Rob Hubbard. The man that taught the Commodore 64 to produce grand sound-scapes and catchy tunes amidst the incoherent 8-bit turds coated with incompetence in the early 80′s. This level is huge, so it’s clipped into two. And you better stock up on extra lives and get ready to enjoy Hubbard’s music, hear Hubbard’s voice and lean about the man in a tenaciously researched podcast. This is part one.

    The BleepCast inspects covers, remixes and de-makes of our favorite tunes in the last 30 years in this level and asks how everything started, how it evolved and where it all went. This is a broad topic and so there’s no screwing around: This BleepCast hits you massively with 50 minutes of pure nerdsound, spoken and played alike. And the best of all: You’ll love it! I’m happy, Bob!

    This is a rather personal episode of the BleepCast and deals with the first games I had been playing when I was a little kid and how my love for chipmusic eventually evolved over the years. I take you back to the 1980′s once again: You know the time, but most of you won’t know the place: My brain. Enjoy music from the C64, early PCs and some ramblings from my youth. If you don’t like it… then you’re a poo-poo-head!

    This all new episode of the BleepCast deals with gamifications of great movie scores. If you were already alive in the 80′s, going to the movies or just watching classic flicks from the 80′s on your VCR you probably had once the urge to become Indiana Jones, Marty McFly or Luke Skywalker yourself. Then you just had to go out (yes, I know, that’s the hardest part in the life of a nerd) and get yourself one of the games that had licensed movie content among them, and usually some crappy game as well. Although sometimes you would be surprised by actually real good games…

    Hey folks! I’m sorry but I have bad news: Since I am in the yummy crunch time of a time-crunching critical project, I have to put working on the upcoming level of the BleepCast on hold. So my apologies to all my many loyal listeners (thanks Conny & Jürgen!). Some time next week the new BleepCast will launch, nevertheless, and deal with the broad topic of games after movies and some additional tit-bits tidbits of random trivia, served ice-cold — just for you! Until then: Let’s kick some ice!

    This new episode of the BleepCast is all about ninjas, the sneaky Japanese spies that overran games & movies in the 80′s and have either gradually disappeared or gradually perfected their stealth since their first appearance in 1983 on the CoCo. A shinobi may be silent but their quests have always been accompanied by some epic exotic scores. Let’s follow the ninja and listen to his melodies.

    There it is, what you haven’t been waiting for ever since: The BleepCast podcast is all about chip-music, retro gaming and memories from the good old times when we all were young and begun having no life, instead indulging in shitty games with shitty music, or as we call it: “Classics with epic soundtracks”. So if you want me to take you back to the past to play the shitty games that suck ass, then you just discovered your favorite podcast!
