rymix - cry for bass http://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view_by_moduleid&query=39913 if you haven't yet, you need to find out how in your player (i have no idea how you do this in VLC) to view the sampletext, its where you put the names of your samples while composing, and whenever someone was finished they would always go change it to a message greeting all their friends and proclaiming how whatever group they are in is the best and is here to stay, etc some of them featured clever shit like in this cry4bass.mod where he uses a tiny sample thats just a few bytes and is literally just like a sine wave, then has it looped and plays it like a single oscillator synth. amusing! besides muffler there's also brothomstates who started as dune/orange, and is now airliner srs dune - the origo gardeners (one of my all time favorites ever) http://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view_by_moduleid&query=152158 dune (brothomstates) - arsa http://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view_by_moduleid&query=67510 dune - asia mist garden http://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view_by_moduleid&query=67511 shad - square demo (another personal favorite) http://plopbox.net/musicdb/shad/squademo.xm.zip Clint Anderson Systems Engineer On Wed, Mar 18, 2015 at 7:12 PM, Clint Anderson <clinta@gmail.com> wrote:
