We started the show off with some news items set off by the title of Actraiser II, which I've never actually played but always thought that the music would be perfect for a news intro.
Song 1:
After ranting about the lack of support for Type C, which is actually a classic orchestra song backwards the actual name escapes me at the moment, we went into "A Gift From Moscow" remix of Type A (Korobeiniki) by McVaffe courtesy of OCRemix.org
Song 2:
From there I butchered the history of Tetris from the book: "The Ultimate History of Videogames" by Steven Kent, and then segwayed into "Let's Play Some Tetris MotherFuckers" by Happy Hardcore.
Song 3:
Immediately after that song we heard "Love me or hate me" by Lady Soveriegn briefly played because in the video there are Tetris blocks falling and the beat is based loosely on Tetris.
Song 4:
After more information on Tetris, and Tetris DS we went into another OCRemix.org song titled "Linear Groove" by Chthonic which I could not pronounce to save my life. Great version of the familiar Tetris theme which seperated itself from the other remixed by putting it's own baseline into the song which took it in a new direction.
Song 5:
After going over the upcomming 8bit Extravaganza Tournament and the controversy which we left off on which will pickup again next week. The rock remixes are a personal favorite so next we heard "Type B" by the Minibosses. The Minibosses have been a force in the retro videogame music tribute rock band scene and have proven why with this song. This song inspired this tribute show to see who could top their version.
Song 6:
There was more talking after the Minibosses song originally but after we ran into computer problems I lost the last 15 mins of the original show. So as a means of giving something back to the podcast audience we've thrown in the "Thirty Plus-Mix" by R3forged. This is the best techno style remix that I've heard in regards to Tetris, and it's a song that didn't make the original show during the recording due to time constraints, but here it is!
Song 7:
Following the best techno style version of Tetris we've come across, the best rock version of Tetris had to follow. Powerglove provides us with the "Tetris Theme" that is just spectacular. They do a medley and then go into the faster versions with excellent heaviness. They also include the Russian "Hey!" for authentic feel. This song is awesome.
Song 8:
I didn't get to include this song in the episode, but if you can find "Epic Tetris" by Pronobozo it's definitely one of the best songs to check out. The only problem with the song is that it's about 1:30 long, which really leaves you hanging as that is no where near long enough for the quality of work which was produced.

With that the show aired on Kutztown University Radio on 88.3 FM, 1670 AM, Service Electric Cable Channel 24, Hometown Utilicom Cable Channel 44.

-With a little help from Tash who pointed me to PortForward.com I was able to finally get the stream up and out.

-With a little help from Jeff I was able to figure out that the microphone and music could not coexist on this edition of the 8bit extravaganza. It was one or the other.

Even with these obstacles in the way the Tetris tribute was an amazing show!

I suggest you tune in live because as we perfect the art of recording the 8bit Extravaganza we ran into a snag at the end of the show and only the live listeners got to hear the entire 1st episode.
