Kinda effect of limitless boredom. wink
I realize that nobody listen to electronic music but maybe somebody might be interested in this from its technical side.

ZX Spectrum in recording studio = Jean Michel Jarre. wink wink
http://yerzmyey.i-demo.pl/Yerzmyey-Unkn … ectrum.mp3

The only instrument/sound-source and the only sequencer: ZX Spectrum 48K with AY-interface.
Recording-studio effect used: multitrack recording / filters / phasers / choruses / flangers / delays / echoes / reverbs / equalizers / compressors / limiters.

If anybody would be interested how it sounded in "raw" form, I uploaded to SendSpace several raw tracks' examples, without any effects added.

They were synchronized to the first click (being a closed hihat audible on bas.mp3 base sequence) that have been removed finally, when the synchronizing of all traxx was finished and the click was redundant.

And as I said, the only used instrument was ZX Spectrum computer.
wink wink wink wink wink wink

Surely the same is possible with GameBoy, Atari XL or any other 8bit computers/consoles.
Ah well, still it's only kind of experiment. wink

I thought this mightve been about jarre using a zx or something.
But this is just as good!
You really captured that jarre sound. It's so good. I want oxygene!

Bloody hell Yerzmeyey this is amazing. Pushing the boundaries yet again, the combination of pure chip sound + new effects is the concept I'm probably most interested in across the whole spectrum of the use of chipmusic!

(And don't be so hasty - I love a bit of early electronic music; everything from Daphne Oram and Delia Derbyshire to Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream via Brian Eno and Terry Riley! smile )

Very nice.  Great Jarre sound!  I certainly think it's a fantastic experiment and very thought provoking, but to me at least, it defeats the purpose of writing with these old machines anyways.  Keep it up!

I listen to electronic music in general and not just chip, so this fits nicely. Sure, the chip folks will balk, but I appreciate it. smile Go expand your vision you chippers!
