Warm-Up Stream Nov 19th

Today, November 19th, 2023, at 20 CET (UTC+1), 4 pm Eastern, 1 pm Pacific, – a warm-up stream for next week’s Transmission64 party:

https://www.twitch.tv/chipsnbricks

Funded! Thanks to all who supported Shogoon’s Kickstarter and thus helped to cover the costs of renting a studio, hiring world-class musicians, and better sound production for this year’s “Shogoon & friends” online concert at Transmission64.

Shogoon will return to this year’s Transmission64 with old and new friends for an amazing new online concert.

A EVO64 board for the winner!

This year, courtesy of EVO64, we have a fully assembled EVO64 board for the winner of the demo competition.

We also would like to thank Badegeman for their continued support by sending stickers to all of our competition winners.

READY?

Here we go again 🙂 What a year so far for the C64, so many amazing productions.

So what’s new for Transmission64 this year, you ask?

Well, there’s one big change that we’re excited about while also a bit sad. Mibri is moving on from moderating our c64 online event, after 3 editions of being an integral part of the team. So we went on the hunt for new moderators and found a match quickly (is there a demoparty moderator “dating” site?).

We welcome Ziona and Slaygon of SLAYRadio fame to the Transmission64 team.

Updates to the site will be made over the coming weeks.

It’s over :(*

Thank you all again for your amazing support, here are the results of Transmission64, 3rd edition (2022) on December 3rd.
