Blue Monday (New Order) like you've never heard it before! [C64 Chiptune]

[@Adam_Lyskawa]

After almost 50 years SID is still one of the best sounding synthesizer chips. Seemingly primitive, yet produces that unique bass the recent chips can only emulate.

[@Nordischsound]

SID 4 ever! 🤗🥳🥳

[@YesiPleb]

Amen.

[@joehoy9242]

It helped that designer Bob Yannes was himself a musician as well as an electronic engineering wizard.

[@TillmanZ]

Imagine having inserted a floppy and after some "fast load" loading and decompression you would have seen and heard *THIS* on your TV back in the day. I would have completely lost it! This is *SO GOOD*!

[@Nordischsound]

Thanks Man, 💻💾🕹️🎵🎶🎵🎵

[@Rhialto]

This!

[@BastetFurry]

Have a time machine, travel to CES 1982, say nothing, insert floppy into one of the demo units, launch this or some other of Nordisch SIDs. And while you are at it, launch some modern demos on other machines. Would love to see their faces. 😁

[@SWIZZRADIOS]

In the fall of 1983, "BLUE MONDAY" by NewOrder was one of my favorite songs. The artist "DIVINE" had modified this piece of music slightly and released it under the title "Love-Reaction". Bobby Orlando then said that he was the composer of the rhythms. The COMMODORE VC-20 and then a little later the C64 were my first personal computers, which I also used to send RTTY radio teletypes on amateur radio (HAM radio). Unfortunately, I almost gave these devices away again at the end of the 80s...

[@Nordischsound]

awesome

[@magicmulder]

Damn, the bass and drum sounds are so good. Another great cover!

[@Nordischsound]

Thanks so much 🤩

[@ginopezzini]

I tried so hard in my younghood to achieve that sound of Bass Drum and snare without no success…

[@LabRatWarfare]

Such a BANGER!! Killer cover Nordischsound, hearing this on a C64 is AWESOME!! 🙌🐀

[@Nordischsound]

Thanks so much 😊

[@TheRelaxingEnd]

Thanks 🕺🕹️😊

[@katho8472]

Are the drums done with the "illegal" sampling method by turning the voices on and off in rapid succession? (Like how the Ghostbusters voice sample has been done)

[@Nordischsound]

no samples involved here, only regular sid sound.

[@WolfTheDog]

Not bad

[@Nordischsound]

thx

[@xxxfalidoxxx6714]

Sounds good

[@Nordischsound]

Glad you like it, thanks :)

[@disasterincarnate]

great work again, cant help but think tho. sid tune size (in the small kilobyte range), the retro style animation playing? (guessing lots of megs involved). what do you end up spending more time on? making the actual tune or the visuals to go with it :D

[@Nordischsound]

The visuals are just an animated gif, I will try to find the creator later and give credits in the description. I'm not a pixel artist, only music.

[@dans.8198]

Which tracker/editor was used to compose this?

[@Nordischsound]

Goat Tracker 2 :-)

[@nichttuntun3364]

That's right. I never heard such a grooveless version before. 😅 Nevertheless it's well made! 🎉

[@Nordischsound]

You like it? You don't like? Anyway, thanks for listen 😅

[@nichttuntun3364]

@Nordischsound I like it and I don't like it. Two sides of the coin. 🙂

[@lougarou007]

Kids and I really enjoyed your 🎶 music

[@Nordischsound]

So cool, great you enjoy my music as a whole family 🕺🫶😊🕹️🎵🎶🎵🎵

[@colinthomson7518]

Schwingt eure Tanzbeine! 🤩🕺❤️

[@Clemens-Ratte-Polle]

Background Ani from?

[@Nordischsound]

searched on Google, couldn't find the creator

[@MarcShake]

Im Oldenburger Computermuseum hat jemand den Song für unser Atari St-Setup arrangiert :) Für den C64 brauchen wir den auch noch ;)

[@Nordischsound]

Wie cool, die SID Version zum Download kommt morgen auf CSDB.DK

[@jensretzdorff7412]

Ich erinnere mich dunkel an ein Demo damals auf dem 64er, aber Deine Version ist viel besser, klarer, präziser, sehr toll!

[@Nordischsound]

du meinst bestimmt diese Demo hier, als sie rauskam, war ich 3 Jahre alt 😁 kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6mxk2ytdseKr6ssi=UH9pq0N7-vHolwLT

[@jensretzdorff7412]

Ja genau! Ich war da 15 und voll dabei... hatte diese und weitere Sounds auf Kassette aufgenommen zum unterwegs hören im Sony Walkman 😂❤

[@HerrBerzerk]

Is this made for 6581 or for 8580? And what do you think sounds better?

[@Nordischsound]

It"s made on 8580 and prefer this version most of the time 😊

[@HerrBerzerk]

@@Nordischsound Yes, just checked it on the MiSter and the drums of the 8550 sound much knackiger ;-)

[@Nordischsound]

@HerrBerzerk jupp genau deshalb 😅

[@sieglindegeruldis5841]

Wann kommt bei bandcamp dein neues Album?

[@Nordischsound]

Ich müsste da mal wieder aktualisieren, dass stimmt. Dieses Lied wäre dann aber außen vor wegen der Rechtslage. Habe alle Chat Lieder bei Bandcamp rausgenommen weil es in den Bedingungen steht, das keine Cover ohne entsprechende Lizenz hochgeladen werden dürfen. KZbin regelt dies ja zum Glück automatisch.

[@PablitaPicasita]

is this duel SIDs?

[@Nordischsound]

no, plain 1 chip SID, but it's 3x Multispeed 😎✌️😊

[@MichaelLauerDr]

@@Nordischsoundmultispeed?

[@Nordischsound]

www.c64-wiki.de/wiki/Multi_Speed_Musikst%C3%BCcke here, you can read about Multi Speed and how it works 😊

[@Tom1603]

some sounds are a bit off. could be more authentic if done with some samples.

[@Nordischsound]

this is just my own rendition, not a copy, samples are a "no go" for me.

[@MrMummelnase]

Allein für den stimmigen E24 gibt' s schon den Daumen rauf! Wurde 1986 auch schon mal umgesetzt: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6mxk2ytdseKr6s Mir gefällt Deine Version aber besser 🙂

[@Nordischsound]

Danke, aber was ist E24? ^^

[@eisdielenbiker]

@@Nordischsound Ein BMW Coupe ? Z.B. der gute 635Csi. Allerdings dachte ich bei den Visuals im ersten Moment an ein W124 Coupe...Pixelei halt, aber auch 'awesome' wie die Musik. Wo gibt es den Original SID oder ein PRG für den echten,alten C64 ?

[@Nordischsound]

csdb.dk/release/?id=248842 hier gibt es SID und PRG 🤗

[@v0lker]

Puh! Irre. 🫠🖖🏼

[@Nordischsound]

DANKE 😊😊
