Hadn't written a pin pulse engine in ages, so it was time to change that :) Octode 2k15 is a rewrite of Shiru's 8-channel Octode engine, which fixes the detune issues of the latter by using 16-bit frequency counting. The sound is somewhere half-way between the original Octode and introspec's "XL" mod.

I tend to dump random musical ideas here. Also now a member of Cool and New Music Team??? Hope you enjoy!

I often start things and never finish them, so quite a few previews here will be abandoned. Most of them have been moved to my secondary account, so you can check that out if you want to.

Hello

I'm Tufty

I've been interested in making music on the ZX Spectrum and Atari ST since the mid 1980s.

During the late 1980s and early 1990s I made quite a few tunes on the Atari ST using the Quartet music package and also released quite a few demos into the public domain.

These days I'm very much enjoying a musical renaissance making 1-bit music using vintage computers as instruments. 

I have released an album called '1-bit Mechanistic' on bandcamp and am working on other retro projects.

Btw, I added the 'Atari' to my handle to try and distinguish myself from the other tuftys (including that darn famous squirrel) on the internet these days :)
