Amiga Music: H0ffman - Drop The Panic

Drop The Panic is a brand new Amiga mod released only a couple of weeks ago at the sundown demo party 2012. It's great to see/hear a modern sounding tune in mod format from an oldschool tracker artist. According to Hoffman this style is called Glitch-hop, to me it sounds a mix of dubstep and trip hop. Hope you enjoy it.
The Amiga is a series of computers released by C=ommodore from 1985 to 1993, all Amigas used the same sound chip, an 8bit, 4channel, upto 28khz PCM called "Paula".

What?! How!? This is making 4 channels sound like an expensive recording studio... Only Amiga makes it possible I guess. :D

[@infesticon]

Well eq and limitors before amiga are helping a lot. You also have lots of other clever trick pushing the amiga sound as far as you can go.

[@OfficialGrasshopper]

sampling makes easy ;)

if it just had a little reverb my life would be complete

[@AmaroqStarwind]

Sounds like the glorious lovechild of the Sega Genesis and Crystal Method. I'll give it 7 out of 5 stars.

This is the best description ever.

[@Deetronic]

Wow!!! Reminds me on my good old parties @ Exit, Main Stage somewhere early in thr morning! Great skills too!

[@finaltheorygames1781]

This simple program is capable of amazing things even in 2020.

[@radrolla3406]

You got that right, it's where my inspiration came from! Between something like FL Studio and ProTracker, it's ProTracker all the way! People nowadays don't know half of the effort it takes to make this work. Coming from someone who's younger than C=ommodore and been making tracker music for 2 years. And for free? Now that's what's up!

[@1chrissirhc1]

What a classic song to see again on my way home! Who can’t love the tracker bouncing near the end of the song!

[@Da1000K]

wow, all that with 4 channels, must applaud!

[@DashsChannel]

My search is over! I've looked everywhere for some old-school hardware wubs, and I found it here. I can count this as Amiga dubstep, and NAB622's OPL3 remix of Rainbow Factory as DOS dubstep :3

[@JonGodcommadore65]

This is mad mate. Found the mod and had a look too :P Great stuff.

[@GWRocket]

More glitch hop? Amazing

[@nopecode]

So perfect , so good

[@Videoneer]

Wow This is surprisingly good for the limited toolset that mod music gives! I AM IMPRESSED!!!

[@tickledropstop]

Now this is what i call skillz, son!

[@unfa00]

Great stuff!

[@PrimitiveBaroque]

Amazing!

[@MrSynthaddiction]

Very good stuff ! You can hear this is a pro ! thanks for sharing this song ! Lets go and take a listen at the h0ffmann compilation #1 :)

[@TheKocu12]

Gooooooood job MAN :)

[@maurizioterzo8890]

great

[@KeyBrute]

Sounds like my pandora electronica playlist.

[@off1k]

90k?? I count 659444 bytes (644 kilobytes) of sample data with 58394 bytes (57 kilobytes) of song data. It probably would take a while to sample and sequence this mod but Hoffman is pretty experienced so maybe not long at all :)

[@jmm1233]

Must taken a while to mod all them samples , quite clear too must be 90k worth of sample data

[@criptomty404]

yeh!

[@DeathRusherYT]

Sounds Like Project Libitina Is Going To Be Fun!
