It's thanks to the SWP (portable) format exportable by SID-Wizard (took the idea from SDI in the past). So the SID-wizard SWP-player has only 1 instance in memory (a bit more bytes than standard player), and tune-datas (except GT ones) are in a relative/position-independent version all around in the memory, filling it up totally. Theye're like subtunes but all with its own orderlists and instruments. I didn't even have to use exomizer, so the tune-switching is instantenous (but there's no more memory for the planned lyrics).
(SWP was used in our Kerekes Band production too, I tink that is we recalled at the party.)

@Nordischsound: Thanks for the nice cosmetics and high-quality upload at Utube. The Maybe track is listenable many times because it's so retro-calming thanks to the filters and waveforms you used. The lead vocal resembles very much the Ink Spots singer's voice-timbre and technique.

I just realized this is a onefiler (yes, yes, now I remember you mentioned it at the party Hermit, but...). Extra kudos for squeezing all the stuff in.

I've uploaded a video with mastered audio and added some bloomning and flicker effects to the screen so that it looks like a real screen. screenhttps://youtu.be/nT68H9ts-L8

Oh, thanks very much in the name of all creators. These warm welcomes of the release are starting to add up to the desire for a sequel, but hopefully more tunes made by collaborators. I have 6 tunes on my mind which I'd like to hear in SID-form (and btw. wanted to cover for this MC): Pistol Packin' Mama, Way Back Home, Worry Worry (Hammond!), One More Tomorrow, Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall, Crazy He Calls Me.
There are so many good pieces on this Diamond City Radio playlist.

So tastefully done. The best I've heard in a long time - but it's no wonder with the lineup of talent.

Even more fun facts (I like when cultures are crossing all around):
-If you like the beautiful End of the World Skeeter Davis song, you may check out a fingerstyle-guitar rendition of it that my ex bandmate Sandor Enyedi made recently when I showed him this tune.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H99oigYCwKw
He is a very established fingerstyle guitarist playing fully fledged music on a single guitar. This cover would never have happened if I didn't buy a PS4. Life has its mysterious ways.
(Thanks for liking it Shogoon, I think this heartful tune is one of the most beautiful of the DCR playlist, this alone gave me the strength to maximalize it.)
-Shogoon used up the whole wavetable-sequencer table for his wonderful contentful 'It's a Man' cover. Is it maybe a world's first in GoatTracker? :)

Thanks for the high appreciation of this MC, the hard work put into it by all of us is quite beneficial now. I should mention Chabee too here who gave me a lot of encouraging during the lengthy covering process. And of course this wouldn't happen without the material made by great composers and performers of the 1930s..1960s.

Fun facts:
-While I was whistling Civilization at my parents' house my Mother started to sing it in Hungarian. :) So it seems there was a Hungarian version (and maybe other versions worldwide) back in the miidle of 1900s. This was (and still is) a great hit.
-I wanted to put sync-scrolled lyrics into the production but without exomizing tunes and texts to fit into 64 kbytes it wasn't possible, so:
-There's a 'beauty spot' in the animated meter at high levels, which is the interrupt-vectors' graphical representation due to the graphic-data taking place at the top of memory. I felt better leaving it like this.
-Sorry for the lack of auto-advance. But you have the SIDs now for your fancy SID-player if you want continuous DCR experience.
