@Atomicfog feel free to look through my channel btw if you only listened to that one, there's a total of 9 uploads of previously unrecovered stuff!
also it looks like you can find an mp3 download of that cover on this album

Awesome, thank you for that.  Those are so good.  I also re-uploaded my favorite cover from him that didn't seem to be on youtube and/or anywhere else.  But it's definitely a gem. 
 
Wow, that's quite a gem. It definitely seems like it should have a lot more recognition than it does. Thank you for that 👍
Here's a very under-appreciated FF6 cover I've been listening to a lot lately 
 

the use of the telephone sample caught me off guard but it fits perfectly
dig tf outta this mix

Shit, I can double dip on threads then.

There are few games in that good ol' demoscene style, ya know... Bejeweled, Deus Ex, Jazz Jackrabbit... pick one of those and you're good to go. :)
As far as delivering remixes of game themes in that classic demoscene style, not to toot my own horn but that's one of my personal favorite things to do, paying a nod both to the original tracker, and the game, and the composer all at once. For instance: https://mazedude.bandcamp.com/album/game-remix-tracker-homage-remastered
Just my two cents. :)

well, this track made me feel like tearing up and then immediately resist that compulsion, which is exactly the effect i expect from most pink floyd songs, so i'd say they nailed it 

i hope he's well.
 
he hurt me pretty bad with some assumptions that were based on all this nu world thinkumajicks.
idk where he's at now with world beliefs and i don't wanna manipulate him so i dunno what to say but i wanna practice free speech anyway.
and btw i also annoyed him plenty while i was going through really crazy times. i was so terrible to him in 17-20.
and then he kinda reciprocated it 1 or 2 years later. while being on a "i am all people" trip.
i am also in cyborgland btw but i try to fight it, and i am recently winning. ate shit for years.
i wanna bust this mess we're in as a species open. i feel i got it together now.
 
i am not sam's bestest friend, in fact we're sooooooooo different, but underneath we communicated musically, and it was AWESOME.
 
sam you're awesome fight for individuality, the dream that holds US (of A) upright. 
 

Hudak was the perfect choice for a leadout track, hell yes

Hudak was the perfect choice for a leadout track, hell yes

not me im just getting younger :3

i have to strain it a bit - did a long walk and it's gone. while going spastic to music.

dude! track two speaks to me in a very specific language that i don't understand but love to hear
and track 7 makes me feel like i'm casually climbing to the top of the outer wall in cave story
track 9 belongs in earthbound :]
the manic energy in the last track feels like a warm coat on a cool autumn day
i'm digging all of your recent work man

Dude! Great Feedback!
I'm Happy you Like #2 (NPI), because i think it's the strongest of the brunch. Very simple composition, but i Simply havent Heard It B4.
#7 i started same day as #6, and wrote a bit Fürther next day. A sorta 3 synths + Drums challenge Thing. Never played cave Story For more than One hour, but your "outer Wall" comment Sounds so mysteriös, i feel Like there's some serious MV quality i missed. Eh, mby this year!
I honestly think Out of These 10 Trax #4 belonx in EB! 
I think the beautiful Thing you say about #10, like the warm coat, that's partly this wonderful MKII EP that i can't play over Here becaus CPU will Just die. New plugin. 
But the rest Is a beatsliced drumloop and a sega Genesis emu.
Hm, i could actually run this here. I could do One single instance of a CPU chewing plug and do the rest lofi.
But i tend to not do that 'cause when i set up a system, i try to give It the Instruments It can run easily. It's a bit OCD...
You see i'm kinda techy minded RN.
FL setup on new PC Is Always techy work!

You got It! Exactly.
There's such good Plugin stuff from 15 years back, Just gotta make them Shine.
And Samples don't rly age...Just gotta use the good soundfonts and, again, Mix em Till they sparkl ;)
The Brass Is WIVI and that's really cool Age old physical modelling actually. Runs fine on any netbook today. You gotta do lots of velocity and modwheel microsequencing, but then It Sounds good and different. Glad you Like!

The stereo spread on this is wild, it feels very intentional and meticulous even if it's not. The more heavily reverbed elements work with the more dry kit instruments in a way that I wouldn't have expected. I don't have any constructive criticism to add beyond what you already know and what's already been mentioned, but you gotta finish this guy!
YES (please)

hey, that's a bunch of very sudden great feedback all at once! ha.
this one is gonna be a lotta work for me to get it as good as can be.
unless i get a stronger laptop over here, i'll have to finish it next winter because i started it on that pc in southern italy where i've been for jan-may. i have the project file here in case i wanna get another good studio pc.
the ample sound guitars and waves keyboards and stuff are just crushing my crappy netbook.
i *might* try a rework with 10-15 year old vsts. but probly just do new mixes with them in the meantimes.
 
it's a great tune right dj mokram? i really think that for some reason it's not ez to arrange with modern instruments at all...like it was written to perfectly fit the PSG chip.
i think Boss Battle is a far fourth or fifth looking at the whole soundtrack, BUT when Boss Battle first hits after underground, i agree that it's totally badass. the experience of first playing Sonic 2 on GG/MS as a young one is something to behold! that little nasty crab thing down the ravine on the right with bouncing cannon balls incoming from the left, and no rings in the stage for safety....fucking horror show for a kid!! 
maybe one could do a medley of the first 10 minutes of play of sonic 2 that culminates in the boss battle. incorporating the stage intro and stage won jingles. i think there's too few remixes that directly incorporate the real time experience of intense gameplay sequences! and sonic 2 was really intense.
stage 2 is very unique as well...very chill vibes for sonic. the music as well as the hang glider prop. that damn hang glider took everyone a lotta tries i think. totally untypical for sonic as well, but it worked!
and that's sonic 2 for GG/MS kinda...very untypical, sort of the most interesting sonic game. ymmv.
 

so i've been back to northern italy for 3 weeks, and these two bits are about as much as i've been able to cook up here regarding remixes. (feeling pretty lethargic here lol)

darkworld1.mp3  
smwjank1.mp3   it's not so much, but i did finally incorporate my hardware synths into something. i've had these for years and never used em much. a behringer deep mind 6, microfreak and behringer WASP. all three in use in the zelda bit, only the DM6 in the SMW credits theme.
hey i know it's not much. but maybe someone digs the kondage.
tomorrow i'll be off to berlin, and chill there a few months. my 2nd netbook is waiting there, and i hope to get some more musicking done (more than here anyway)
so i'll have like an axis of evil of studios. southern italy/northern italy/berlin. sounds about right. the CPU power is in the south, the hardware stuff is in the center, and...i'll see what the berlin studio is gonna be.
probably only 15 year old plugins and shabby soundfontz!! stay tuned lol

For Geoff. 1966-2024

i love that classic tracker programs still work on modern systems

Happy 30th birthday Earthworm Jim! I was invited to a groovy little celebration album called "Earworm Jam" to honor the occasion; here's my contribution (which I'll be submitting to OCR), and there's a link in the description to the full album if you want to check it out!
 

you already helped a bit i think...i started something a few days ago after writing&reading on here.
it's not super duper but was enough to make me quite happy. was so starved for getting a groove going before!!

ha, that's cool redshadow. i haven't been using soundcloud for a while. i'll get back to you when i have anything new and noteworthy, because i love the idea of my music being blasted to some random ppl in the states.
but it's gotta be something new. my music from 2018ish was really just about coping with the strange new reality. i can do much better...but it's gotta happen!!
i gotta get out of this strange anti-creative loop. for reals.

definitely. over-analytical and just plain traumatized by all the crap that happened in those years.
i have tried some pure cbd early on in 2019, when the voices situation was still pretty new. it's not really for me.
i tried some weed a few weeks ago, and it was good for letting the fingers, like, just fall on the keyboard and see what they do. but it's a thing i better only do once a month or so. my history with cannabis is iffy.
 
anything meditative is the way to go. biggest change for me has been doing regular cold showers. whenever i feel like not quite myself, cold water shock is good for gaining some presence. big fan of wim hof, and what he's saying about the vagus nerve and stuff. if i'm not wrong, that nerve can be connected to hearing voices, and becoming acquainted with the sensation of the cold can help you gain back some control.
