The High Voltage SID Collection Search and the Modland Search have both been updated. They now support by default a more flexible boolean search. The HVSC search can now also link to remixes from the site http://remix.kwed.org. Big thanks to them for helping us with this, and do check out their site for some excellent C= 64 remixes.
Have a great new year everyone!

Allister Brimble has given us permission to put his first album "The Team 17 Works" online for download. The album features a studio version of the Alien Breed soundtrack which is really worth a listen, and was not re-released on his later Sounds Digital album.

The High Voltage SID Collection Web Interface has been updated (to v1.2). It now supports searching by SID Model, and also shows additional information when the Show Info/STIL option is selected.
Also if you are a fan of C64 music, you should really check out Reyn Ouwehand's recent rendition of Martin Galway's Wizball theme (on youtube).
