Two and a bit months is probably the longest turnover I've had on a track in... a while. I sincerely apologies; you can thank an untold amount of IRL bullshit, piss poor luck, and bad mental health for that one. Hopefully, future BM2 tracks won't be in the kiln for quite as long.

For the most part, ideas were strong for this one for the outside; a lot of the early roadblocks I hit (when I had the opportunity to actually work on the damn track) were in things like sample choices, audio balancing- the minute details. Everything had to be just-so, and at several points in the process quite a few things I tried weren't working out and had to be tweaked. One of the biggest headaches I had was with the melody during the "chorus" sections- the actual melody was easy, but I spent ages cycling through samples to find one I liked. I'm still not 100% sure if I made the right call with the one I ultimately went with, but it sounds better then everything else I tried out. Another rough spot, believe it or not, was bridging the first "chorus" with the second "verse"- that little two bar break was the very last thing I worked on in the composition process cos I just didn't know how I wanted to handle that bit of connective tissue.

I am pleased with the song in the end- as I type I'm still just coming out of the mindset of actively working on it (and given that work phase went on as long as it did and was as difficult as it was, I'm mostly just fucking thankful it's done and I can move the fuck on), but what's there is strong. I completely fucked up in one spot and dropped the wrong version of the vocals I was editing in post- take a guess which one- and didn't even notice until it was too late to fix it, but fuck it, mistakes happen. I'll just work it into the metanarrative and say Takayuki Mitsuyoshi (the Gonkaka member wrong the song "in canon") encountered an error with the sampler playing those vocals or... something. Yeah.

This song contains the following sample + audio from freesound(.)org:
- audio from The Wickerman 1973's trailer
- strong windy night (170129)
- Nightscapes Asplund (1ratatosk1)

The lack of formatting options in SoundCloud descriptions annoys me and I'm unsure how often they get read on here, so from now on I'm gonna just link to certain descriptions offsite if they're on the link heavier side.

Café Del Mar - SYRIK (Tech Trance Remix)

This is my first C64 'real hardware' chip tune since 1987(!) So please be gentle with me... ;o)
This recording is directly out of SIDTracker64, so it's not 100% genuine hardware. I've listened to the .SID file in various players, and the results 'vary'(!) I'll have to drag out one of my C64s and play it on the real thing soon... just to see how it fares.
P.S. It sounds rather awful on a 6581 - but I expected that. :oP
P.P.S. For those that don't know much about the SID chip, you can play sampled sounds - but there are none in this piece... just pure 3 channel waveform nonsense.

DARK PORTAL

A Commodore 64 SID track made for the Razor 1911 demo '$777' released at the Revision demoparty in 2015. Mostly composed at the party place.

This is the party version, since there never became any final version, sadly enough. Who knows, maybe in the future... :)

Fantastic image by Made!
