Using the YM2612 sound chip in the Sega Genesis and a Yamaha DX-100 keyboard, Joey Mariano, in TRENCHVENT, takes FM synthesis beneath the atmosphere to a secret place at the end of the ecosystem. Underwater, biology and technology morph into each other while the open air grows stale. Now, the coordinates have become a hot spot where crevices create sounds, and where an eel can ignore the mountains of waste above.

I see what you did there.

Haven't listened yet, but the performance at 8static was great, I'm expecting great things.

Great release! Awesome to hear some more Sega FM music. smile Sweet artwork too. Also, nice idea using a DX-100 with the Sega. I'm now thinking of getting a hold of one of the editable Yamaha Portasound synths to play along with my Sega music live.
