At the tail end of high school in 1996, I composed two crappy #synth songs in #ScreamTracker. The original files are lost, but I've got recordings on tape that I've since digitized.
Now, almost 30 years later, I found a cheap #MIDI controller and free software, and I'm going to attempt to re-record those old songs.
Dunno if I'll ever share them, as I'm a rather private person... but I still want to see if I can do this.
Wish me luck! (I'm gonna need it.)
So #Voyetra ran on Windows 3.x? That's dope! I love the Win3 aesthetic, there's something sublime about it.
And those decorative elements in #ScreamTracker 3 are badass. Yeah I can definitely take some cues from their designs. Can't edit characters like in #BIOS but box drawing and block elements go a long way
I do remember using programs that looked like #ScreamTracker 2 long ago but mostly for breaking the computer or for installing #Doom
You know I love module and tracker files, but I love them more when they have a Japanese sound to them! This song and the artist kicks ass!

in high school, a couple friends and i did battle of the bands with #screamtracker , dragging our beige desktop computers onto the stage. maybe i'll write more about that sometime, but for now, i've resurrected the moniker for #ironchefofmusic https://mastodon.art/@wisteria/111714583101900652
Löysin vuosien jälkeen Purple Motionin uudestaan, vanha trackerimusiikki iski nostalgiasuoneen kovaa.

The beginning of »Panic«, Future Crew 1992, PC; Letter Fly-Through with that music by Purple Motion (Screamtracker Module) is aaaaahhhbsolutely unbeaten. #demoscene #retrocomputing #futurecrew #screamtracker
Hey, I'm Raccoon Fink. I write electronic music of all kinds, most recently diving deep into #DungeonSynth.
I've been composing since the early 90s (as RangerRick) working with trackers after finding them on BBSes and eventually the #Demoscene.
Nowadays I work with #Renoise, the great-great-great-grandchild of those ancient trackers of old like #ScreamTracker and #FastTracker. It's an amazing tracker that combines oldschool workflows with modern DAW features.
In a distant, distant future...

before i ever learned how resonant filters and harmonics actually worked, my weird intuition to emulate them in #screamtracker (which doesn't have resonant filters) was to mix and fade multiple octaves of the same sinewave melody across separate channels 🙃
Here's another retro throwback from my DOS tracker days.
"Fragile Equilibrium" — July 1994
Oh! I didn't realize that Mastodon knew how to play audio files.
Here's a retro throwback — my entry into the #DemoScene Music Contest 3 back in 1994. It placed 12th out of 65 in the rookie division.
Created in #ScreamTracker with a #GravisUltrasound, using some samples from a 1985 Yamaha PS-6001 FM keyboard.
If you remember the music of Future Crew, you are my people !
