and of course the rule-of-thumb i mentioned is ridiculed and taken completely the wrong way.
i love you guys
I don't know, the parts I quoted seemed pretty clear to me. If you don't think that trackers are very mathematical, saying that they are is a pretty clumsy way of expressing it.
first of all, trackers are very logical and very mathematical.
here's a rule of thumb: if you don't/didn't make high marks in math, you may want to try using something else.
lol
The heavy math involved in tracking includes COUNTING and ADDITION. I really don't see what's "mathematical" about trackers besides what you need to be able to compose or improvise in general.
I was curious and now I seem to have found a device that does exactly that! http://www.kentonuk.com/products/items/ … host.shtml
Here you go: http://mixtape.be/stuff/kss.rar. It's both game and scene music as far as I can tell.
I think it's a subtune format, so you can probably reach the subtunes with whatever plugin/player you use by right clicking the next/previous song buttons.
I've collected some MSX tunes before, but I think I was looking specifically for SCC/MSX-MUSIC/MSX-AUDIO tunes. I'll see if I can find them.
I said a chip chop, chip to the chippie to the chip chip chop a you don't stop the chop
Personally, I don't see the practical use of going that far beyond the specs of the original machines (unless you are doing some heavy processing, which I guess even a 32-bit Z80 will bottleneck), but I have to agree that those are mouth-watering specs in one way or another 
. The MSX dev scene is already pretty small, and only a small subset of those would ever do anything worthwhile for this hardware specifically.
Feel free to send us tracks!

Who gives a damn if your music isn't "pleasurable" to some club wankers?
The thread starter, obviously!
Serves me right; I have been downloading music illegally since Kazaa. I don't see how selling warez is so much worse than downloading them.

XXX-posting from facebook:
A larger part of the problem is probably that a commercial game developer will most likely want exclusive rights to the music for their game to have an "original soundtrack," in which case CC-licensed tracks are useless to them. Once you have published under a CC license, you can't easily revoke the distribution rights you've granted everyone.
My advice is not to CC license your music. Even if you are not able to enforce the copyright easily, you're at least not (necessarily) explicitly handing out rights to the left and right. All the rights you're giving away are at the expense of your own. Retaining full copyright, you have more minute control over who does what with your track, and unlike maintaining a trademark, you can let infringements slip whenever you feel it's appropriate.
Some netlabels seem about as reliable (in terms of quality) as a random cm/8bc download, but I keep coming back to the more reputable ones to download fresh, good music. Bandcamp is convenient, and one of the few ways I still randomly listen to albums I've never heard of before. It's still hit/miss when it comes to quality, but as DKSTR pointed out, at least the player is good enough to account for it.
EDIT: And yes, net labels have helped me. I do virtually nothing to promote my own music outside asking labels when I get some songs bunched up, and according to last.fm i still have a bunch of listeners. Now, the proud part of me likes to think it's because my music is good, but it's probably mostly because I've gotten in contact with good labels that already have a lot of quality content relevant to what I want to release.
