gameboy version is better it my favorite track on gb memories 90s from morocco north africa

One of my favorite song from this game, the second one is the song of act 7. Is it possible to find sheet music for these or midi file maybe? I would live to play it on different isntruments!

Clever use of the triangle channel. At first I thought you used DPCM for the woodblock-like sound, but I should've known. :P

OMG!!!!! uno de mis temas favoritos, mas que de NES, de la vida!!! :D, gracias por tan buenos momentos.

I’m really liking this track, if someone has a midi for it I’d like to remake it. Awesome. Thanks for the enjoyment 👍

Why is this track not exact the same as the Gameboy Version? The Gameboy version sounds better

Thanks for your explanation. That also confirms why for example the "River Smurf" theme only exists in the GB version right?  I would love to have more information about the music differences in the platforms.

also, the Gameboy is the "original" version of the music? As in, this version is the way the music was ment to sound like?

this is a good song

Final Fantasy III (VI) - Battle Theme [HARDWARE + Soft. DUAL-PCM Sega Mega Drive/Genesis rearraged]

Of all my game soundtracks this is probably the track which makes less sense of all. A Smurfs game, the mountains stage, and a reggae tune? Don't ask me why, I just thought it sounded nice at the time.

It doesn't use PCM sounds for the drums, it's all done with the triangle, rectangular and noise channels.

The Smurfs was also the last game for which I drew the sprites too, then focused on composing and programming music only.

I'd love to dedicate this track to (Hip) Tanaka-san, fantastic musician and also designer of both the sound chips of the NES and Game Boy consoles.

Recorded from emulator.

So I decided to dust off Famitracker and attempt a cover of my buddy Jredd's amazing "PSG Strut" tune using only the stock 2A03 chip,  No samples channel or expansion chips were used in the making of this track.  For you NES audiophiles out there - I hope you catch the composer references!

Somebody on YouTube said it would be cool if I made this, so I did. I used Famitracker 0.4.6 and then added stereo and EQ. I hope you like it. The original FTM is here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/7j89febdph7k33h/Mega%20Man%202%20-%20Dr.%20Wily%27s%20Castle%20%28N163%20remake%29.ftm?dl=0

Back Alley Heat

Another song from my upcoming album Return to Aloha (which I'll probably be releasing alongside The Bad Friend, later on this spring.)
This song may be familiar to those familiar with my work. It's an alternate take on this tune from Elancia Chronicles: https://soundcloud.com/leila-wilson-woofle/heroism?in=leila-wilson-woofle/sets/elancia-chronicles-order-of-1  Which, let's face it, was already really 80s! I decided to go for a feeling a bit closer to 80s anime rather than just straight up 80s for this rendition.
Got some fun stuff like a collaboration in the pipeline, so stay tuned. Work's a bit slow for a little while.

Go Forth Hero Capel! 1B

This is the intro track off my latest album, Symphony of Hunted Truths. Join Verse on a perilous journey filled with awkward memories, lost history, explosions, robots and playground insults!
This track is a collab with my friend https://soundcloud.com/user-584188436 who was able to come through and balance out the mixing on the whole album, as well as put in some work on tracks! Definitely go check his stuff out!!! You can buy the album here. https://www.goalpublications.com/store/p93/symphony-of-hunted-truths-album.html  Enjoy!

DEAD MAN'S HAND

Hi! I've been working in the video game industry since the late 80's, be it as a graphic artist, musician, programmer, designer, or any weird combination of these. Most of my work is known as musician and specially for 8 bit game consoles. If you ever had a gray brick, probably you already listened some of my music!

I used to sign my earlier works as "Joe McAlby" because my name is just plain boring and ordinary. But then the nickname is also ridiculous... too late to change that I suppose!

I rarely compose music nowadays, so I use this account to share some of my past works, and hopefully new experiments too.

Be my guest, enjoy the music, and leave a message if you like it. It'll be appreciated!
