This was around the time Furnace Tracker started making the rounds, which allows you to make music for a ton of sound chips. I wanted to experiment using the Sunsoft 5B expansion chip, because I thought it would fit well with making heavier NES tracks, and Famitracker's implementation of it doesn't take advantage of the envelope waveforms all that well.

The vocals were converted using RDPCM. There isn't any tracker that can store all that data yet, but it's theoretically possible on real hardware... provided your cartridge can hold MBs worth of data.

Continuing the trend of covering songs I like from Clone Hero, here's my favorite song of the CSC Horrorthon pack. This time I actually took the time to synthesize the vocals myself (excluding the growly parts).

Mushroom Gorge, home of Mushroom George...

This is my first time using the Sunsoft 5B chip. It's a little intimidating at first, but having those extra noise channels is really handy.

I make the Clone Hero charts and occasionally dabble with whatever soundchip I come across.

Good morning!
Music is pretty great! This is where a lot of scraps/portfolios will go. Big releases will be over on my Bandcamp page (rebranding in-progress)
