I don't think there was any irony.
No irony!
I forget NBC probably didn't have these Public Service Announcements worldwide. From the wiki:
"The More You Know is a series of Emmy Award-winning public service announcements (PSAs) broadcast on the NBCUniversal family of channels in the United States and other locations. The spots feature personalities from various NBC shows. Tom Brokaw was the first person to do a The More You Know spot; it aired on NBC in January 1989 (these replaced the One to Grow On PSAs that were used from 1983 to 1989). The first 'comet trail' star logo was created by Paul Johnson on an animation stand using a slit scan technique at R/Greenberg Associates (now R/GA Digital Studios) in Manhattan. They were later updated using 3D CG. These PSAs are broadcast regularly during NBC's programming in primetime, late night, and Saturday morning."
Here's an example:
In short, I didn't know about the differences in triangle waveform generation. I researched it a bit after reading your post. I now feel a bit smarter than I did this time last week.
Agree with most of you, here is my opinion
any FM, C64, NES also Gameboy
You could also have dirty bass mixing thoses (specially with SAW wave)
SIN, (SIN+SAW), TRIANGLE, (TRIANGLE+SAW+SQUARE), (TRIANGLE+SAW)
I mostly experiment with NES music, here are some of my "bassie tracks"
