Wow, Impulse Tracker really doesn't like working in Windows XP does it? I
am running it in VDMsound but still takes serveral dozen attempts to
reinitialise the sound card. Fun!
Anyway... It's been ages since I've used Impulse Tracker, nearly 3 and
a half years since I used it properly. I'm suprised I can remember the key
combinations. I guess if you do something for long enough you never really
forget how to do it - like riding a bike. I hadn't ridden a bike for
years then tried again and fell off instantly so that's probably not a
very good example.
And I've gone off on 2 tangents straight away before really saying
anything. Fantastic, no change there.
This is the first of several old Impulse Tracker tunes I've made over the
years that I never released. There was no real reason for not releasing
them, I just didn't get around to it (or forgot, or something). There's
certainly nothing really wrong with them. Having said that, this
particular tune starts, doesn't really seem to go anywhere for a few
minutes, then ends. Brilliant. Story of my life!
This one must have been around the time I stopped even trying to come up
with good names for the music. I just pressed a random key and just
thought "there, that'll do".
I think this must be a record for me, holding on to a tune for nearly 5
years before doing anything about it. And back when I released the
original Deeper Shores I thought that 4 months was a long time to hold on
to a tune.
And after all that I really don't have anything much else to say about the
tune itself. It's a bit samey and doesn't break any boundries, but still
has a nice warm fuzzy feeling about it.... Where I have heard that before?
I'm bored now so I'll stop. The contact details are the same as they were
last time:

If you're reading this far in the future, and the BT addresses don't work
anyway but you still want to complain to me, just look me up on the
Modarchive.
As of now I will no longer end my comments with the word "FIN"...
"BYE"
