Lyrics:

壁の漆喰は常に白くて明るいです  思い出した通りです。
朝の光は、はっきりと見えるようになった今、思い出した通りです。
何が変わったのか、上から見るとすべてが軽く見えます
そして、登りの焦りは、今では甘い酔いとなっている。
これで、薄雲のように谷に帰ることができた...。  こと が できた。 本当に。

At the Top of the Hill 【丘の頂上で】

Reference & Inspirational Track: Brian Eno - Lanzarote

100% RYM2612 generated sounds. EDIT: Not 100%. I play some acoustic guitar. 

Once I caught on to how cool the CSM Mode was for making formants and basic voice synthesis, it's like I discovered the most amazing item ever found in any dungeon of any video game.

I started fluctuating the Retrig Rate to manually control the pitch so I could use it melodically. I went bonkers with it in One Giant nanoStep.

I'm pleased with how the cymbals sound. I spent more time on this one making rides, crashes, and hats more expressive and dynamic.

The "ooh yeah" in nanoBot Racers is the RYM2612 saying it! Not me! It was an accident that it started sounding like voice synthesis, so I tweaked as best I could to make it sound realistic.

The "voice" are run through Numerical Sound ReStereo. Some of the engine sounds are filtered through Numercial Sound Tone Mutation Vocals, using programs like panther, lion, alligator and whale to add and organic resonance.

I also used DLD Technology Revolution Virtual Surround for some of the racer flybys, used especially for the ending.

The growling and catlike sounds are filtered through Numercial Sound Tone Mutation Vocals, using programs like panther, lion, alligator and whale to add an organic resonance.

All RYM2612 generated sounds,  except where I briefly play a few long sustained notes on flute. I challenged myself to not use any sampled cymbals at all, so I spent some time on making them more realistic. I ran a lot of the cymbal patches through The Echo using wobble and diffusion to make them less static. I also then used Numerical Sound ReStereo a lot to add some distance from the ear and again to take the edge off.

Inspiration & Reference Tracks:     Phantasy Star 3 - Battle Begin

CORRECTION: 
100% RYM2612 generated drums and percussion. 

Everything is RYM2612, except where I play electric guitar, 

I mistakenly thought I had samples blended in, is because during song writing and mixing, I used sampled Genesis game kicks and snares to refer to, and gradually removed and replaced them with the closest approximation I could make out of the synth. All cymbals and hats are RYM2612.

I used McDSP FRG eq and compressor a lot, as well as Scream, Pulveriser to shape the kicks and snares.

  Reading Rainbow - TV Show Theme

I need to confirm (by digging into original un-bounced songfile), but I think all sounds and drums, including hats and cymbals are RYM2612. I'm unsure because during writing, I might have used a sampled drum as a reference for making a snare or kick on the RYM2612.

I like the flute/recorder and tuba/tenor horns this chip can make!

One of two entries I originally made for the RYM2612 Song Challenge. I tried to tidy up the mix, and make some additions for including in this album.

Inspiration for this song comes from something, but I can't remember what. If anyone recognizes melodic similarity with anything specific, please let me know.
