AdamJ & ADON360 – Stack 'Em Up (made with Atari 8bit)

Another Atari 800XL production, rendered in an emulator.

Awake

An attempt at expressionism through minimal composition. And no, I haven't been smoking anything. I don't do that. Try getting acquainted with the structure of a large grant application, then you'll understand :-)


My Live Used to Feel Like This

A FastTracker 2 module in C64 style. An old one, cca. 1999 :-)

Tribute to C64 [XM Module]

A little chiptune I made during the Kingdom Come: Deliverance development. One has to have coffee breaks every now and then, right?

While Kingdom Was Being Delivered (made with beepbox.co)

For sweetie :-) An Atari 800XL production for Demobit 2019 in Bratislava, Slovakia. Scored 3rd place in Streaming Music.

Reading Light

8bit is witchcraft, Praise Smooze! And check out my other Atari stuff: http://soundcloud.com/adam_sporka/sets/ready-atari-800xl

This was a quick job in Raster Music Tracker, rendered using an Atari 800XL emulator, mastered in Reaper. Fun levels were increased since the last version of this song.

Sweetie Bot Reggae

An 80s beat on Atari 800XL. Just a few measures looped over and over, to test how the beat would sound and feel.

Monday Stereotypes

A little piece I was performing on my live gig on 17 April at FelCafé.
