A few months have passed since I last talked about games hidden in vinyl records because I’m starting to have quite a few of them (and it’s becoming difficult to find). And the record Heartware gave me a bit of trouble, both in finding it and retrieving the data.

This week, a ZX Spectrum game (again) in an album by the Yugoslav group ITD BBB, Skidam Te Pogledom.

Another ZX Spectrum program, this time on the vinyl of 1984, an album by the Spanish group La Mode.

Today, I won’t be talking about a program on a vinyl, but still something peculiar. And it allows me to show a bit how my research goes.

The case of the album 101 Damnations by Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine (Carter USM hereafter) is a bit peculiar: there are 25 seconds of code at the beginning of the track A Perfect Day to Drop the Bomb, but this code isn’t aimed at a computer. It targets an old Yamaha drum machine.
