Something Hidden by K.G. Orphanides - Audio Quality Fix

Written in ~1995, this is a rough rip of an un-adjusted MIDI file originally created using a Roland SCC-1 and Musicator. This recording taken from Speedy MIDI talking to an SC-88 Mk2.

Work Zero

Originally written for a friend's CRPG  project at some point in the late '90s. Un-adjusted MIDI file captured via line out from a Roland SC-88 mk2, originally created on an SCC-1. Yes, the drums are too loud.

Arawyn's Battle

Late '90s SCC-1 track, un-adjusted. Originally written to go with a vocal line, this ended up being much better without. Percussion too high and no wind-down in this version. This recording from an  SC-88 mk2.

Electric

Part of an attempt to create poetry for a mythic post-apocalyptic science fantasy world.

Text:

In the desert, the stars
shine down coldly across
infinity's dark plains

as though there could still be
purpose in this empty
and once glittering place 

the dark sands and cold lights 
of a vaulted midnight 
still stretch to the endless

and all that has changed is 
that you are not here and 
I watch the skies alone

All That Has Changed

Environment audio location demo for building the ambient background soundtrack for the Codename Caerus interactive fiction.
