RKO2GO
- Remember the Commodore 64 home computer from the 80'es?
- Remember the catchy tunes from your favorite games?
Remix.kwed.org (RKO) is a community for remakes and remixes of C64 music.
RKO2GO for Android accesses the full RKO remix database and enables you to play remixes, read community feedback and download to your local media library. RKO2GO can also operate in offline mode, when remixes have been downloaded locally.
Notes on required permissions:
RECORD_AUDIO Required by the real-time visual spectrum analyzer which utilizes the android.media.audiofx.Visualizer class.See http://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/audiofx/Visualizer.html
MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGSAlso required by the Visualizer in order to connect to the main audio output, which is required for some Beats Audio enabled devices.
READ_PHONE_STATERequired for pausing playback on incoming call.
RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETEDRequired to re-schedule the "new remix"-scanner after reboot.
WAKE_LOCKRequired to briefly wake up the device when checking for new remixes. This will occur daily or once a week depending on the current selected settings.

Oh my goodness! Fantastic music! And it appears doesn't take up too much memory! I love it!☺❤❤❤
Great app, it would be nice to include amigaremix as well.
I don't usual comment but had to with this app. Absolutely love it. Weldone.
Awesome every c64 owner should download it!
Love it, but would love it even more if ability to play original sid versions which ale linked on RKO alongside each remix would be implemented. At the moment I have to juggle between this and Droidsound-e.
I'm a long time listener and fan of RKO and of the C64 Takeaway and this app is really great!
It's what I always wanted from Rio c64 remix community.
Great app with nice design! But the search doesn't seem to find all the online tunes that you can find on the remix64 web page?
This is such a handy app. I searched for a remix player without even knowing this was around and to my surprise this popped up.. Initial use confirms it really very good indeed..
My favourite app, this player is fantastic. Offline mode/download is a nice touch.
Nice to see this and hear C64 remixes on the go. Recommended !
Wonderful! Suggestion for next version: same as the mailing list, popping up a notification when new tunes are added.
Been using RKO on desktop for years and now along comes the android app. Perfect for getting your C64 tune fix on the go. Can't recommend enough.
Thanks so much for creating this excellent streaming app for one of the best game music remix sitea ever. This app is a sweet, sweet cherry on top.
This app solved all my problems and made me have nice dreams.
So very cool!
Why does this app need permission to access the microphone and keeps asking about it everytime you play a song? You can deny the rights and it still plays, but it will nag you everytime. Quick update: Thanks for the reply. It doesn't even nag once every open but once before playing any song (complaining that access is disabled without asking again). I gave it storage access manually but kept microphone disabled.
