Chicken Sound
I think I am making chicken sound, because this is here. Additionally, this is here.

So coders, how do you explain this?
I made a 5 minute gabber tune in Protracker for my Amiga, but when I loaded it today it had turned into this. It freezes just after you press play, and loops the pattern-position it's on (usually). But the song keeps changing though.
This is 3 videos edited into one (cuts at 1.08 and 1.33) but no other postproduction has been made. FYI, the speech synthesis in the beginning says Protracker Rules, and is there every time I start Protracker. Hot scripting action!
If you like this, you probably break down in happy tears from this.
Little Computer People 2009
I was at Little Computer People 2009 - the largest 8-bit demoparty in Scandinavia for 15 years, with about 150 people.
I was happy to win first prize with Automatas in the C64-music competition. I spent the week before at the countryside, composing a song specifically to win the compo according to my algorithm. But after a while I gave up to make a good song instead. So obviously my algorithm was wrong. It is an 8x-speed song made in Defmon, meaning that it accesses the SID-chip 8 times faster than usual. This gives you a higher resolution of all the tables, faster slides and LFOs, etc.
In the Amiga music compo, I came second last with my song Konkurs Data. The sounds used are mostly textfiles, pictures, executables, etc - sweet data that Protracker eats perfectly. It is not the recipe for winning demoscene competitions.
Some of the releases I enjoyed especially was the Amiga songs by Yonx and Qwan (mp3s), Zabutom's Space Fish, Mortimer Twang's Seved Skweeeeeeeee, Jucke's Where is Dino?, LFT's Power Ninja Action Challenge (custom hardware, mp3 here), and many more! Get all the releases and photos
Remix: Icarus – Second Inf(E)rænce
I have made a rather abstract C64+Gameboy-remix of a song by the IDM-experimental duo Icarus. It was released a week ago, and you can listen to and buy it at Boomkat. (note that the beep every 30 second is a Boomkat feature to interrupt the prelisten, but I thought it worked rather niceley - consider it a remix). Other artists included on the CD are for example Karsten Pflum, Badun, Frank Bretschneider, and Xela.
"There are more abstract pathways to be explored here, too. Swedish 8-bit artist Goto80's radical reworking of Second Inf(E)rænce chops it into microscopic bursts and stutters of atonal sound on which he eventually lays down some beautiful descending bass tones." / BBC
"insects burrowing underground, Goto80's Second Inf(E)rænce mix is as obsessive in its approach as an Icarus original but ultimately of minor interest" textura
