guÿôm – The awareness of raving rabbit
Really fun and all over the map release from Da! Heard It records. I especially like track 5, which has a very piggytracker sounding filter sound. Dirty arps and casio drums all up in this, sample below. -
YERZMYEY “Ye olde square”
From the horse’s mouth:
In 1989 (as a teenager) I bought my first ZX Spectrum (it was Timex 2048 to be precise) and I started to make chiptunes. (Jee, in 2009 it will be already… 20 years!! Fuck, I’m old). First of them were for beeper and then – in 1990 – I bought AY interface and started to make 4bit micromusic. My first songs were really crap and they sound rather like shitty music from 80s games. Then was (I hope) better and better.
This is a chiptune album made on ZX Spectrum 48Kb with AY interface, containing my old traxx made in time I wasn’t so much into the AY synthesis, and used almost only standard square wave.
The album/compilation has been published in December 2008 as a Christmas gift for chiptune-fans, however the songs come from 1998 – 2002 (that’s where the title comes from ). Maybe somebody will be interested.
I didin’t add here my really *old* AY songs (1990-1996) because they are mostly _really_ bad. (They are available somewhere on da Net, in form of Spectrum demos ‘though ).Merry Christmas for all chiptune/micromusic freakz!!!!
