I vaguely recall a small conversation in the SHOUTBOX about someone being bored with the current Amstrad CPC mixes and was asking for links of other AY-related podcasts. From memory, someone else replied with a site for one specific podcast, but there were only 2 out of the 3 episodes available for download. I was going to respond to this conversation, but I decided against it; instead here's a list of all of my podcast, remix, online record-label and gamemusic-related websites for your perusal.
Please feel free to add your own music links... the more we share, the better!
