Here's a cool look at one of our favourite consoles, from @keefstuart.bsky.social 👇🏽

Master System at 40: the truth about Sega’s most underrated console
Forty years ago, the Nintendo Entertainment System dominated the markets in Japan and the US. But in Europe, a technologically superior rival was making it look like an ancient relic

NEW SEASON OF THE POD BEGINS!

S4 EP1:

We ask if Vaporwave has already produced its last true classic album; reflect on a Summer of IRL shows; give the latest news on the Nobody Here documentary; and tackle the tricky/toxic subject of Vapor-bootlegs...

Against an abstract dark background of an electricity tower, the words Future Sounds FM stand out in a pink and green modern font. In green reads: Season 4, episode 1. "Has vaporwave already produced its last true classic?"

Today's #VaporwaveAlive duo is @bortmedia.bsky.social and E Z R A ゴーバー! These two teamed up for a very excellent and spooky set for the festival. E Z R A ゴーバー served up some tracks from recent albums, which there are a lot of! I really like all the themed albums Ezra does, including this banger.

A Sanyo Walkman lays on a hardwood surface, next to OG synthwave artist 80s Stallone cassette album: Engaged. The cover shows a pastel pink and blue retro vintage telephone. The cassette tape is in the same pastel pink.

Yoooo. @mypetflamingo.bsky.social & @timeslaverec.bsky.social are thinning out their label archives, and the MPF Discogs page is well worth checking out for some very old bits and bobs. Mainly tapes and minidiscs...

Love this, and we LOVE cathode-ray tubes :)
chrisbaraniuk.com Chris Baraniuk @chrisbaraniuk.com · Sep 12
NEW: I wrote about the people OBSESSED with hunting down old-school cathode-ray tube TVs!

The gamers who want to relive their childhoods. And the folks who like watching old VHS tapes (or even Netflix) on 'em. 📺🕹️

Was the era they yearn for a golden age of tech??

www.bbc.co.uk/future/artic...
'You just can't recreate that glow': The people who hunt old TVs
They are televisions from another era, replaced by the flat screen, high-resolution displays of the modern era. Yet cathode-ray tubes are still surprisingly in demand.
