A very rushed work (6 game jam tunes and a bunch of graphics and animation in 2 weeks) which shows in some places. But this is the version that got into the game before the deadline. Maybe a better version someday.

The B-Team (from Up Rough Boulevard)

Composed by Abaddon and Tempest in late '90s. 

A looping 4-channel Amiga MOD (16kb). I gave it couple of rounds before fading out.

This tune was used in Drunken Hobos demo by Damones: https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=65567

Drunken Hobos (with Abaddon)

I had the honor of releasing perhaps the first Atari 2600 tune that is actually in tune - thanks to Aleksi Eeben and his new Star Bars music editor.

Star Bars is an 2 channel Atari 2600 music sequencer and player that runs on Commodore 64. It allows you to export your music as an executable ROM file that runs on an Atari 2600 emulator or on the actual console. 

This tune was recorded on VICE C64 emulator and in PAL mode of the player. This is how I heard it while making it, but it will sound a bit different on a real Atari 2600. I have no way of recording it and the emulators (like Stella) have problems with the sound emulation. Judging from various emulations, the NTSC version sounds better than the PAL version on the Atari 2600 (and vice versa on the C64).

Atari 2600 / VCS rearrangement of Pekka Pohjola's Matemaatikon lentonäytös AKA Mathematician's Air Display - both Atari 2600 and the album were released in 1977. 

The playroutine uses 2 channels made of square and noise waves. Thanks to Aleksi Eeben for the help.

Recorded from my Atari 2600 Jr.

Title / menu theme for the Halloween-themed GBA Microjam '23 microgame collection on Game Boy Advance.

Check out the game at: https://gbadev.itch.io/gba-microjam-23

Optimized/mixed for headphones on GBA.

Recorded (.WAV writer) from Schism Tracker since my Game Boy Advance SP doesn't have an audio output and the audio adapter generates too much background noise for recording.

It's a looping theme, so I gave it a couple of runs before fade out. A bit too loud recording but can't do anything about it anymore.

Crema Lubricante

Some pathos I poured out of my system last year. It's my first C64 tune in 16 years so don't expect anything fancy. (It's still better than the crap I released on the C64 in late '90s.)
