As some of you may know, I make msx music under the name poke-1,170.
I was asked to do live visuals for the Lowlands Festival in the Netherlands, one of the biggest music festivals we have here.
They asked me to bring my own music, so I decided that this was a good opportunity to play msx music.
I even had some youngsters dancing to my set, so all hope is not lost for mankind Wink

hehe well I made the mix of the tracks at home, so I ended up playing an mp3. I was doing visuals on 2 amiga 1200's, wouldn't have been able to do both at the same time, so Wink

Hey man, cool!

I never really checked out your music before, but I'm hearing some pretty nice bits there, kinda impressed really Smile

Hard to believe it's all(?) coming from MSX HW (MSX-Audio/Music).
There's a (PC) mixing/mastering process involved right? Smile And some stuff seems impossible w/ lo-res 8-bit samples? (e.g. the fat kick drums). And how about the (sub)bass track 3? Smile Track is pretty legit I must say, and pretty nice trip following there! Smile Like 15:30 great tribal, then flowing into some nice bass stuff, and then that pizzicato(?) synth + synths accompanying sounding legit 'n stuff Wink

Checked your EP & Album as well. Definitely recognizing some (early) Autechre/Plaid style first tracks o/t album there Smile

& LOL, I was about to ask you if you know of Ceephax, but I see you do (snooping around here Wink) (You should collab! Big smile) Know of Tipper? (I bet you do Wink)

I see you took care of your profile pic @ Discogs Wink

24:20 yeah, that's nice dude Smile (Reminds me of something, don't know what, Kettel maybe Smile)

(Okay, got today's record here of most smilies in post (13 14) Wink)

(right, & that synth/pad @34:26, WHAAT? (bobbing head here, cool track! Smile)

ps. Do you have a download for this? (Mixcloud is not all that great quality wise..)

How about a live set @ Nijmegen 2020? Smile
(I missed my broodje kroket (& biertje) anyway this year... Wink)

Otherwise a live YT vid (Live Sesh!) would be kinda sweet, 'd like to see this in action!

it all is, every track is a moonblaster 2.1 modfile. but you're right, I recorded every channel separately and added slight reverb, and indeed EQ on every channel, and mastering.

Bingo Wink someone spotted my main musical inspirations haha. Definitely a huge autechre fan, in fact I did a set with early autechre remixes the day after at lowlands.

Well, what do you know, me and ceephax actually do shows together now haha. We played a gig in Lyon, and one at Dour festival in Belgium recently. He's such a nice fella, and he makes his own amiga stuff as well, so he's sent me a lot of his amiga animations and other stuff, and I mix that live with my own. I know dave tipper, one of his last albums was very nice Smile P.s. there's a guy called Ochre who's an electronic musician who mastered one of my EP's (the cryptochrome one)

I'll upload the file for you and post a link once it's done. Wetransfer I guess Wink Thanks for enjoying the set ^_^
