t hink my "brain" is replacing these sounds with magical instruments that cannot be described, yet make this sound amazing and now its one of my favorite follin songs for whatever reason idk :)
im not too familiar with audio on retro computer systems, but does 1-bit mean you only have two different tones to work with? If so, then that's incredible this was made with those limitations.
This same technology, ten years later at least, made Pikachus voice actress howl out of a GBC! This tightly coiled music was literally an innovation to music before and into 8 bit territory. It took Nintendo 5 sound channels to outperform this man with an electric kazoo, then again this is a 3 channel track compared to the monos he produced for them at 18
My god I just got a Vic-20 and seeing this and knowing the work it takes wow I have a long long long way to go to ever reach something remotely as close or similar to this but hopefully I learn and gain personal use and skill and fun with what I could learn from it and do with it
I often wonder what Tim thinks about everyone obsessing over his work as a young teenager. As good as it is (leagues above anything I’ve ever been capable of or likely ever will be) you gotta wonder if he’s like “guys I was just a kid, listen to my good stuff for crying out loud” Huge fan of this, and everything else the man has made
I hope not, I hope he enjoys it for what it is, an appreciation of a technical genious. As a teenager myself in 85, I was blown away by Agent X's music, so much so, that I worked out that if I attached the ear out of the speccy to a tape recorder, pressed play and touched the mic lead to some inner part of the tape player, it cleaned the sound up as if passing it through a filter, I basically had to sit there listening to this whilst pressing the mic connecter into the tape deck :)
@@VeggieManUKI think you’re right, the man is a genius after all. Also love the first hand experience you have, wish I could’ve heard your cleaned up version too!
