Dreaming of You ℗ 1995 EMI Latin

Selena / Dreaming of You (PC-9801 Version)

Silent Sinner in Scarlet, abbr. SilSinn in the 🎮 community, started writing ♪ after hours of playing old PC/​video 🎮 (feat. 🎼 generated by soundchips from 1980’s–early 1990’s). Found favor with Yamaha YM2608/​OPNA FM-synth chip (found in high-end NEC PC-9801 & -9821 💻 that once dominated the 🇯🇵 domestic market) because of the relative ease of composing/​arranging ♪ for it and for its ability to mix FM/​PSG/​PCM 🔊 paradigms in a well-balanced fashion. Chose PMD98 by KAJA as the preferred compiler for making OPNA ♪ evocative of both “PC-98”, arcade, & Sega MegaDrive/​Genesis systems. For inspiration, thankee to legendary composers ZUN, 高井達雄, & 植松伸夫 as role models to follow.
