Dear Patreons, thank you for your support. A very quick note to let you know I'm already putting the tips to good use to improve the quality of content you receive. I started using a new camera in the last video, and today was able to order a professional Lavalier mic instead of shouting at the camera's one! My mission to provide the best content, without getting too too polished and keeping it friendly and relatable, continues. Thank you all for partnering to enable that! Your friend in retro, ...

Dear Patreons, here is your early access to my next video, being released to other mere mortals on Tuesday afternoon! This week I set myself a less grueling challenge, but still a fun one! Let's try to fix the infamous noise from the famous SID chip. Will it work? Let me know if you try it and how you get on! Your friend in retro, Chris aka Perifractic

To my dear Patrons, old and brand new! Your support is amazing. I hope you enjoyed the last video and the SID-powered song included!: https://youtu.be/-Z52cvfkUyE What you saw and heard took so long to produce, but I loved every minute! Hope you did too.
For the next video coming to you early birds on Monday, I've set myself a less grueling challenge! I'll be trying and showing you all a super simple hack to reduce the infamo...

My dear Patreons, I have a treat for you with my new video! Let’s finish the “C=MM² red” keyboard & create a top track where every single sound was played on its juicy red & black keys adorning my Commodore 64!
BUT, as my loyal supporters and as my thank you, you are the ONLY ones who get a shiny download link to own my full uninterrupted song PLUS a bonus polished ‘radio edit’ with just some percussion, EQ, and echo.
I recommend you watch the video first to avoid spoi...

My dear patrons, your opinion matters! Please check out this poll about tomorrow's video!
2018-03-12 23:00:47 +0000 UTC View PostHere's your early-bird release Patreon(s)! Plus, at your level I'm introducing "final edit input". See something you don't like, or want to see more or less of? Let me know and it can affect the final video that goes to YouTube in the coming days. So, in this episode I upgrade the Commodore Music Maker (“CMM”) into the “C=MM² red” & give it life & a knob (2 actually.) Enjoy!

Hi guys, here it is! The video where I attempt to build a cheap, easy, SEXY, Commodore 64 replacement power supply! Please like, subscribe, and share. https://youtu.be/UCdXV0X6wEY
2018-01-28 03:58:40 +0000 UTC View PostJust a quick message while I take a break from editing to let you know I'm working on an exciting new video entitled "Make a cheap sexy Commodore 64 PSU". There's a lot of replacement power supplies out there for the C64 but they're either ugly or expensive ($100 at times.) I had a cool idea that I'm going to build. Other than that I'm awaiting the arrival of the Pixel Wizard C64C case from the original Commodore molds. Apparently it's stuck in a US customs Christmas backlog! As soon as that arr...
