A couple of days ago, C64CD
released 'F15 D'Gamma Clone', an intro that featured a SID tune by me. Information about the intro can be found here...
I wrote the music using a PC based tool called Goattracker. The SID has been recorded using an 8580
SID equipped C64c, run through my Dolby amp.
The tune was started towards the end of 2018 after news of the
death of Ben Daglish and was originally intended to be part of a tribute
to him, but was unfortunately not completed. It has been finished
recently for the above mentioned intro and is respectfully dedicated to his memory and
legacy.
I've uploaded a recording to my SoundCloud
account; listen to the tune's below. If the player does not appear, hear it on it's SoundCloud page here...

Tiny PETSCII Compo 2020
Late last night I noticed a new compo on CSDb called the 'Tiny
PETSCII Compo 2020' with the quite simple rules of producing a PETSCII
no bigger than 8x8 chars (or smaller than 2x2 chars) and 2 colours (1
main colour and a background colour). Rules and various entries can be
found on the compo page here.
After noticing the compo, I decided to enter with a couple of images that were started last night and finished this morning. The first 2 below are mine and the final is from my grandson, who I roped into doing one too!
The first above is called "That's No Moon" for, hopefully, obvious reasons? The second, hopefully just as obvious, is called "Yodascii". The final is called "PETendo", a portamento of PETSCII and Nintendo - it's a GameBoy if you can't tell!
The images were pixelled in my (still unreleased) screen editor, 'ChillED' and I wrote some quick and dirty code to display them.
If you want to download them as a bundle, click here.
Alternatively, you can download them individually on their respective CSDb pages using the following linkies:
