Free Song Download: "Inverse Science"
Ever heard of a "chiptune"? Well kids, Back In The Day, musical computing hardware was very constrained memory-wise so any music compositions you did had to be kept quite small. Most of the sounds were generated in real-time by very simple audio processors. Also, since you usually only had maybe 3 audio channels to work with, you had to use arpeggio to produce things that sounded like chords. Even after hardware advanced, many trackers (that's what digital musicians were called back then...and I was one of them) loved the challenge of writing a song that used tiny samples that you could fit into a few kilobytes of memory.
So, years ago, I wrote one called "Inverse Science". It was only 16k in size in its MOD file form (originally a ScreamTracker 3 file, for those who care), though of course as a modern audio file it's much bigger. Musically, I am actually pretty pleased with it, but I was always a sucker for that old 8-bit music anyway. At any rate, it'll instantly bring back memories of the old 8-bit gaming platforms, etc. which were often bound by these constraints.
I hope you enjoy it.If you would like the original 16k MOD file (which you can play with VLC), let me know.
