Oh wow, they were available? I'm bummed I didn't see them!

"Test Mode" in Gyromite (1985) has a 2-channel echo. I haven't really looked for it earlier than that, but I'm pretty sure it's not in Wrecking Crew, Balloon Fight, Hogan's Alley, etc. https://youtu.be/DADYkayjL4c

Is there something specific meant by "duty cycle modulation"? The term "pulse width modulation" (PWM) is frequently encountered in analog synthesizers, but I haven't heard "duty cycle modulation" before and wasn't sure if its use denotes something more specific.

Equinox, babyyy. Easy to recognize Tim Follin's works

Oh btw. check this one https://www.retrorgb.com/yuzo-koshiro-releases-his-old-custom-music-tools-for-free.html

Great episode, guys! Well worth the wait. Happy to see you back in action

I would assume its less machine instructions to only update the pitch rather do pitch and also turn off the oscillator.

The Coffee Zone

The Coffee Zone [VRC7]

This is one of my earliest tracks, inspired by a music I heard in the Karnov arcade at the time. I did this before coding my Compact Editor, so all was written directly into the music driver's source code.

It's made of small musical phrases interchanged and transposed to make the tune longer. Nothing really interesting, just an old curiosity : )

Russian (ZX Spectrum 128, 1989, unreleased)

Hawkeye is one of the first video game soundtracks I ever composed. The game itself was the first parallax full-screen platform game on the Commodore 64 created by the Boys Without Brains (BWB). This is the preview of the remake, which me and my brother are producing in my brother's music studio. Thanks for all the feedback, guys! We're going all the way in. Stay tuned on this one!

Cheers guys! Play it loud!

This year, I'm challenging myself to write and release 100 tracks. I've been busy writing tons of this year so far... this is the first in the whole series (hence the title!).  I've decided that I will complete this goal personally and but keep folks updated as I go - this will include both personal and commercial tracks too!  Right now, I'm up to about 22 - still a long ways to go!

1 Of 100 [Battle of the Bits - Winter Chip XIII]

First time using the genMDM. This is an original track I made to test out the YM2612 FM chip on the Sega Genesis.

I did not use the 2nd sound chip, the SN76489 PSG at all. There are 6 channels of audio. I used the 6 channels on the FM chip with no changes to patches mid song. 

I decided to keep the limitation of the 6 channels, but do some EQ and Compression to the tracks, as I was after a particular aesthetic. Sorry to all you purist Chiptune artists out there :-)

We're back! Kicking off season 3 with an in depth analysis of the sound design in the long-lost SimCity NES game. Patrick and Steve also talk about MAGFest.

Episode 29: SimCity NES & MAGFest 2019 Recap

Here's an MS-DOS rendition of G A H by Chromelodeon from The Final Recordings. This was the middle tune in my chipspace open mic set at MAGFest this year to celebrate Chromelodeon's reunion. Man, what a show that was. I had meant to post this online earlier but there was a small change I wanted to make and I didn't have access to my DOS rig until today. Please enjoy! And go see Chromelodeon if you ever get the chance!

G A H

A journey in music and inspiration. Something to really enjoy and cherish... Life empowering, love embracing.

I composed this song for my contributors to the now-infamous "Tel Me More"  project.

This song is also being made as a bonus track on the actual Commodore 64 in multi-speed.

Special thanks for the ongoing support from many of you: friends and family, but in particular:  Kees Tel (my brother), Irene Tel (my sister), Jan Cloin (my brother-in-law), my dear friends: Leon van Rooij, Dirk Sloos, Carl Ellement,  All the guys in Maniacs of Noise! <3, Traveller Keyz 2020!, Jorg van den Elsen, Tom Geevers, Roel Meulemeesters & last but not least, Dr.P & Mr. John! <3

And... in the up and foremost my daughter Janne and her pets: pet rats: Ietje, Wiesje, Bloempje & dog: Guusje & turtles: Roos & Ferdinand & the giant snail: Perkamentus. =D

The Journey continues!
