At least "I Need Your Love" has something of a derived radix-esque demoscenish vibe to it to keep me almost interested. The melody is a bit weak, but that is to be expected since the song can rely on the lyrics. It seems like it would fit right into a chill little demo thing. It's pretty generic, but at least it sounds okay.

I wonder... do people not like music that sounds like it was "written by a committee" because it was written by a committee, or because of the actual way that it sounds? If there were no marketing committees making those types of sounds but only artists who aim to do the things that non-committee artists do, would people who are more into independent stuff be more accepting of them?

His old stuff annoys me for some reason. I don't know what it is.

No, I don't think bad music is okay if it's written on an old computer. I absolutely think that his new stuff is terrible, but the older songs that I posted sound alright to me. Unlike his new stuff they don't sound like they were written by a committee, they have a fun sort of vibe and while I'm not running out to buy the album I certainly don't agree that "that shit sucks too".

Susumu Hirasawa is (was?) also a heavy OctaMED user but I only like some of his work.

This was the stuff he made on Amiga:


Totally different than the stuff he's made since making it big, clearly. I don't really follow him and I had no idea his new stuff was so boring.

Also pretty oldschool cool.

I think they illustrate the point that Amigas rule.
