Music tips for the weekend
If you want to start the weekend with relaxed house music, Jonas Faupel's Jungle Cut, which he created on an Amiga 500, is recommended.
If you need some "driving" music for vacuuming, for example, you can throw in the latest remixx by 'D4XX', who this time has taken on Marusha's "Raveland".

Videoplayer: Amos Anim Player V2023.06.08
The "Amos Anim Player" of the group "ELECTRIC BLACK SHEEP" is a very simple IFF-ANIM player that runs on any Amiga. It can play compressed IFF-Anim formats synchronised with a separate IFF Audio Sample (or MOD) (amiga-news.de reported).
To reduce the amount of data to be processed, and because the animation could crash if the decoded animframe exceeded 40Kb, an Amos programme was included that creates a new image sequence from a given source, reducing the movement between consecutive frames in a scaleable way, as the visual needs of the animation. This can save a lot of data with a relatively small loss of quality. The sample animations can be found under the name ".Reduced".

Red Fern Manufacturing: Ultimate Expansion Board for Vampire 4 Standalone
The announced Ultimate Expansion Board for the Vampire 4 Standalone FPGA Amiga clone, which has been available since 2019, can now be ordered - within the EU it will be sold by the Apollo team, outside directly by the New Zealand manufacturer Red Fern Manufacturing.
The Ultimate Expansion Board is a PCB in mini-ITX format that gives the V4 additional options and connections. For example, an extender ensures that the Compact Flash card can be changed without opening the case. In addition to USB devices, classic DB9 mice and joysticks can also be used. The board can be purchased individually or together with an aluminum case kit.
