I made this track in 1998 with Impulse Tracker, quite a simple track but
yet sounded fantastic out in the clubs and at the Wetmusik parties, never
officially released but on a few smaller mix CD's floating around.
The playback within Impulse Tracker v2.15 (the last release for registered
users) plays back OK but I tested it within the v2.14 and it has a
horrible click at the start of the samples, not sure why that is the case
I think the volume ramping at start of sample is different between the
versions. That said this will play as intended in Schism Tracker built
Nov 15 2021 (even earlier versions work well).Open MPT sounds ok too, but
it seems at home more with Schism Tracker (the filters are correctly
matched with Impulse Tracker it seems).
Samples were recorded via an Echo Audio Gina 20/48 Soundcard:
Roland TR-909 - A compressor and reverb were used
Roland MC-202 - Raw sound (the bassline)
The chord stab is from The X-Static Goldmine Sample CD. I believe it is
CD2 track 21 with a bunch of other very famous rave sounds, this sound was
played out of an Akai S1100 sampler and I think I did something to it in
the sampler itself, it was played through a Lexicom PCM70 unit with a
tweaked hall sound, it is still a nice sounding reverb to this day but was
oftend mocked back in the 90s as the poor mans reverb.
I hope that you enjoy this Impulse Tracker file
