I'm still occupied with game development, but I do miss the ZX Spectrum. Hopefully I can return eventually when I have time. #zxspectrum #pixelart #ドット絵

In 1997 my friend MAV and I made the ZX Spectrum version of a fun PC game Chopper Duel. I covered both tunes from the game. This is the menu music: youtu.be/ryz8U70WwUY

#MODtober Time to dive into the single most popular soundchip of all time. The SID!. I've not made many tunes for the C64, but it was a lot of fun converting a Wavesabre tune (PC 32kb exe) down to 3 channels.

Eurodance music was very popular in Russia, so of course I listened to it a lot. Megadance Music was my attempt to make a Eurodance track on #zxspectrum. #chiptune youtu.be/--_hxwu1gQE

For todays #MODtober we're swinging over to the ZX Spectrum AY. This tune was made for the Sloanysoft game "Janky Joe in Retro Hell". Ended up with quite the infectious hook this.

#MODtober continues. Todays mod is Freerunner, a fast paced chip-tune with rolling beats, strong PWM bass and melancholic lead lines.
