um... where is the the SCC episode exactly?

It was used a lot in Dutch scene music disks tho!

It’s a Konami game actually! But Zemina bootlegged it in South Korea… (no copyright laws there at the time)

Haha didn’t know that one… hilariously familiar sound :D

I just stumbled on this, and was very impressed! Thank you for such a detailed podcast!  But I would like to correct some injustices:  1) In fact, besides all games from Compile/Namco, there are many European games and demos that use the MSX-Audio  extension. And there are many that even use the OPL1+OPLL combo to sum up 18 sound channels in stereo. Just to name a few:  - Bet your Life - Bomberman1 - Bomberman2 - Cytron - DuckTales - Eggbert - Highway Fighter - Life on Mara - Life On Earth - Myths and Dragons - Not Again! - Nuts - Pumpkin Adventure I - Pumpkin Adventure II - Pumpkin Adventure III - Rune Monster - Solid Snail - The Lost World

The SCC is actually better than the WSG, because it has 8-bit waveforms can be changed on the fly, while the latter has 4-bit waveforms contained in a ROM.     ;)   Some very skilled composers use dynamic instruments on the SCC to simulate FM sound. I.e., this can be heard at the 1st boss song of Twinbee (SCC version, obviously), and at some parts of this soundtrack:  https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm4689952

Patrick and Steve are joined by ImaTrackMan to discuss the MSX standard and its audio. After a bit of history discussion, we take a look at its PSG audio, followed by the following expansions and updates: SFG, MSX-AUDIO, SCC, OPLL / MSX-MUSIC, PCM / MIDI, and Moonsound. We include some pretty great music selections and hope you enjoy!
