Composed by Julian Breeze
Arranged by Tobikomi

The theme song to the game, Thanatos, for 8-bit computers such as the ZX Spectrum and the Amstrad CPC. There's also a version for the C64 that was arranged by the one and only Rob Hubbard.
I based my cover off of the Amstrad CPC version, the deeper notes gave it a more somber and melancholic feel to it. I also wanted to give this a bit of a JRPG feel to it, something you'd expect to hear on the PC-88.

Made in BambooTracker v0.6.3.

Slinky & Spectrum (disquiet0677)

first track of 2025 woooooooo

Tritone engine, recorded with Fuse set to Spectrum +2A mode, filtered a little bit in post for audio quality purposes.

This was done as a test of a new update to the XM-to-Tritone conversion tool (courtesty of @irrlicht-project, many thanks). Said update makes the detune effect match how it behaves in XM modules, making it actually viable to use! Finally some more fine-grained and reliable pitch control for Tritone, it's nice to be able to do some slides and more fine-grained vibratos.

Recorded from Fuse set to Spectrum +2A mode, filtered for audio quality purposes.

Unspoken Wishes (ZX Spectrum chiptune)

[Verse]
I was playin' with my Spectrum
A flash of nostalgia from my past
Eric and his pals comin' back to life
But they never could seem to get to class
 
[Chorus]
And Eric's friends
And the walls
And the desks
And the chairs
The teachers and the classrooms
Are all still in there
 
[Verse]
Yeah
The last time that I saw you
You were runnin' from the headmaster
While Boy Wonder was pickin' a fight
And Angel Face was up to disaster
 
[Chorus]
And all of Eric's friends
And the walls
And the desks
And the chairs
The teachers and the classrooms
Are all still in there
 
[Bridge]
And the bullies still wait by the door
I know they still keep the score
So I grab my satchel and books
And I walk to the door
And they all stand up
 
[Verse]
When I hear the bell ringin'
I don't think I'll make it through
As the bulletins and registers are flyin' by
I know this school is almost out

Back to Skool Daze (The Walls Variation)

I thought I'd have a go at recreating this iconic bassline on the ZX Spectrum. Not easy!
