Miles Per Pattern by Hoffman & CTrix

For Irregular review #3 by Spaceballs released at Datastorm Summer 2017.

[@OmarFW]

Tracker music is proof that limitations are the key to master level music and art. Pressure creates diamonds.

[@esmooth919]

It's for this reason that I like making chiptunes on the NES/Famicom

[@TheRomanceOfMachines]

That's an ace comment that.

[@mikamulperi]

Well said!

If this came out in the 80s, people's brains would've melted

[@nocturnalsunlight3639]

This breakbeat is soooo dreamy~ I listened to this with a cup of tea while it's raining outside~ So good!

[@TuningFreak23]

This is incredibly complex for something being done on such old equipment

[@d4t4b4s3f4c3]

Actually I would think that if you really look into how this song was made it's most likely pretty straightforward. Mod trackers old and new alike excel at chopping and sequencing samples. If you're into any breakbeat/hip hop/jungle etc and think that it would be overwhelming to compose something like this, i would take a look into trackers. Protracker is about as simple as it gets and the workflow on this song would be pretty easy to explain out step by step. Although they might have had to use some hacking to make it sound like the song has more than 4 channels.

you should hear doom midis nowadays

Came across cTrix's Amiga Samplers video and I have to say this guy is creative and talented as hell. Incredible what you can do with 80s technology.

[@mattb8075]

I love cTrix so much, he's so multi-talented. I think for me, my first video of his was the GAtari

[@kenshininoue7648]

H0ffman and cTrix , 2 of my favorite amiga composer! Such a hype collab

[@esmooth919]

1:43 This is my favorite part of the entire song, and I'm glad they do it twice

[@JuiceyDev]

same

[@onionero]

Absolutely amazing part of the song

[@TheRomanceOfMachines]

The sound chip of the Commodore Amiga truly is one of the greatest musical instruments nobody has ever heard of.

[@finaltheorygames1781]

For such an old computer the music is amazing!

[@RWL2012]

The Amiga had a 4-channel PCM sound chip in 1985!

[@licka]

I stumbled upon this by accident and I'm just addicted to the breakdown at 1:44.

[@liranziv]

pure genius if that was a car race computer game music I would drive all day and just to think how its made makes it even better

[@Victimxofxprogress]

Need for madness

[@SeshwaChickenKebab]

4:54 fking hell

[@y-guy]

god i cant get over that piano

[@dweir2584]

I keep focusing on the pattern numbers and how you have built this - incredible.

[@Sevish]

Superb work

[@alvir218]

referenced by youtube@debuglife on Amiga Samplers : Budget dance music in 1990, masterpiece

[@pilimo1865]

debug live is ctrix, actually :)

[@RWL2012]

yeah what a surprise he included a track he half made, haha

[@lassikojola2281]

Insanely good, hats off.

[@netjamo]

Love it !

[@Zuunky]

This sounds fresh

[@methosyggdrasil4667]

Verrrry good

[@Yeowtch]

Very cool

[@UserTX808]

Dope!!!

[@ZZtheDark]

Sounds like something from the early 2ks when a new game is announced. Trailer music material here. ^_^

[@rgbmew]

this goes so hard

[@drlicker6794]

Impressive piece of music. Better than contemporary super mixed logic pro new stuff: A lot of work with 100 plug-in, 0 heart! ✊🏻

[@michahoffmann1054]

how do you define HEART in art? and why is Logic Pro and plugins (used in tracker music too, to pre-mix stuff!) an opposite of it?

[@michahoffmann1054]

magnificent track though, that's what we agree upon ;)

[@VagnerRoberto2508]

Top demais 👍👍👍

[@djaccount5458]

Masterpiece

[@nakistripokaridakis9786]

Respect !!!

5:24 breaks your neck🤯

[@SufferedEnough]

restrictions are really affect the result

[@RWL2012]

in such a good way!

[@methosyggdrasil4667]

I’ve been producing music for maaaad long. But yooooo

[@ntnnot]

Anyone know where the vocal sample is from? ("I've been thinking of you")

[@manical90]

Michael Jackson I think?

[@funkyhousegrooves]

@@manical90 it’s actually sampling Veronica - Someone to Hold

[@allvisualmedia7575]

Wtf ??? Only 4 Channels ? And 4 samples ????

[@pregfcbankingculture]

Music Artists had to be creative with both channel and audio size limitations back then my man

[@RWL2012]

a 4-channel PCM sample-based sound chip built into a computer in 1985 (when the Amiga came out) was actually amazing, considering other ones only had sound generators (square wave/noise), or maybe an FM synthesizer, rather than audio playback capability built-in.

[@capothefool]

wow

[@VincentFischer]

Thanks for uploading! but citrix? Do you mean cTrix or this shitty remote desktop software

[@RWL2012]

Also "Hoffman" which I think is a mis-spelling of H0ffman.

[@VincentFischer]

@@RWL2012 close enough i guess :). Thanks for your comment, the notification of your comment made me play this song again, exactly what i needed right now

[@RWL2012]

@@VincentFischer haha nice :)

[@manical90]

cTrix yes.
