Little acid piece for fun. Made for Acid December 2013 on Devsound.se - always a great collection of tracks & I was very happy to participate again!
This song was done as a demo/proof of concept of my new 'oldschool PC' setup, which means it was made almost 100% using DOS tools on a Pentium 200. Sequencing was done in Impulse Tracker using an AWE64 for simultaneous sample playback and MIDI out. Original samples were recorded/edited with Allsound Tracker and SamplEd, with a little assistance from a Roland S-760. (There are even also some samples from the old Amiga ST-xx sample disks. See if you can spot them.) All mixing/EQ was done 'in hardware' on an analog mixer and the final render was recorded in one take with no multitracking.
What can I say, this rig works AMAZINGLY well. MIDI timing is dead-on accurate and everything just fires up and works. No messing with uncooperative USB devices, no noisy laptop power supplies, no ALSA/JACK issues... It's like having a dedicated hardware sequencer that's also a tracker. I should have built this years ago.
For some reason I got it in my head that I was going to avoid the usual 808/909 drumkits so the drums I chose may seem a little unusual. But I like how they turned out.
It did end up a little shorter than I'd like, might extend this one in the future. Enjoy the tune & please leave a comment if you have any feedback!
