Year is 2100. Hip Ware C23E has just launched.
The new clothes-brand for robots, latest fashion.

Made the foundation for this back in december 2020 in hope for Winter Chip XVI having s3xmodit format since it had the previous year. Nope, not this time.
Now Spring Tracks is here, and I got the chance to finish it.
I'm pretty satisfied with the result. I feel like there still are things to fill out or change - though I think my best results comes when I one day later just make subtle improvements and changes for the better,
and I did that today, so hands off now - it's finished xD

my favourite part I'm most happy with must be the bridge.
It's quite inspired by that wacky mecha-idm-prog stuff Mandrasigma (S/O :D) has accomplished in their recent major tracks, and something with it ... is just so satisfying rhythmic meandering :D

Freedrive chiptune!
A from now on nametag i have on my carefree chiptunes
where I just try to find uncommon sound that however still is
uncomplicated. That means it will often be these 3-part looped progression tunes that are hopefully not too monotone

I have the goal of not using too much waveforms but instead 1Byte - 4Byte samples
which I think creates a more different sound than the PSG stuff.

I made some of these in 2020, two of them a WIP collab with ida (SVL) and a finished collab with lila (omniq, will see whenever that one gets released). This is one of those 2020s, that became the title-tune - and I converted it to .it from .mptm and improved it a little (added some panning, etc) just now, just for 24k tracker module category of Spring Track X on BotB, just to see how well one of these modules can do

Take off your slippers, relax and sway the rhythm.
I even went and put excactly that algorithm input in the name generator (relax and electronica/dance), and this title was the one that fit the mood of the module best.

Custom samples from hardware Roland SC-88vl (909ish drums), Casio CTK-6250 (organ+bass, strings, sequence synth, crash cymbal) along with Amiga ST-Pack (hallbrass), and a modified elwood lead by atekuro.

Thanks for the inspiration Robyn and dhg2 with your amigamod in this category :)

A follow up to my first ever MT-32 MIDI on BotB (https://battleofthebits.com/arena/Entry/32-Nature/31121/)
because it had the same happy jazz vibes. Hopefully not too sharp brass this time :>

All made in Cakewalk Pro Audio 9 with the MUNT standalone

32-Nature II (MT-32 MIDI)

This is Twin-G 55, made with two Yamaha TG55 synths combined, by two residents of England, @dusthillresident and @robynmod 
Sequenced with Sekaiju: https://openmidiproject.osdn.jp/Sekaiju_en.html
Mixed and mastered by @robynmod
Info about TG55: http://www.vintagesynth.com/yamaha/TG55-Tone-Generator

@dusthillresident :
This was a really fun song to work on, @robynmod and I worked on it together in real time dynamically via Parsec while discussing it via discord voice chat (although I had to keep restarting my discord every hour because discord is SHIT!)
We composed this song using Robyn's two Yamaha TG55 synths, using a very cool feature of the TG55 where each unit can be set to play odd and even notes respectively, doubling the available polyphony. 
It's really fun collaborating in this way where it's like, we're both sitting at the same computer and swapping the mouse back and forth.
Also @robynmod is awesome and added lots of great stuff to the song, she has lots of cool ideas that inspire me a lot.
The end result is a really cool/quirky and fun song.

@robynmod :
It was a really fun time collaborating in real time with dhr, it only took us an afternoon to start and finish a song and it turned out nicely. I would like to thank Paolo 'Synthmania' as without his demos on the TG55 I probably never would've purchased one. Without the TG55, I wouldn't have gone on to do MIDI music nor explored other synths. Thank you Yamaha TG55, TG55 forever !!!

opl2 song made for Winter Chip XVI earlier this year. It got 54th/318 overall, and 2nd/13 in the AdLib soundcard category!

I'm always surprised when these strange and dissonant entries of mine for things like that place high but I guess i shouldn't be at this point.

opl2 is probably my favorite soundchip, but one of the few things I don't like about it is it being exclusively mono. So for these soundcloud uploads I like to try things to turn them into a stereo experience! It doesn't always turn out great since the music wasn't intended to be heard that way, but i've liked trying different things. This one was making it so each channel is gradually changing between L/R positions at different rates from each other. A different method than I tried for the "Can You Defeat The PAIN CRYSTAL [RUINS DEFENSE MECHANISM2]? (no)" upload.

anyways you can hear the original mono version and download the *.amd file here:
