Event id #3185 : Old School C64 Music Compo
Old Skool Compo!
Rules:
Song has to sound like stuff done by people from 1986-1999, take Matt Gray, Hubbard, JT, Most FutureComposer things, ATOO, etc, as an example. Dont Look at 1983 c64 songs and base yourself off that.
Theres no problem in using something ACTUALLY from the 80-90s, like futurecomposer, DMC, GMC, etc, you may even Write something in ASM, if you REALLY want, if you wanna use something modern, like GoatTracker, NinjaTracker, SIDWizard, etc, As long as it sounds like an older C64 Track, its fine.
You May use a Detune in the track, actually its even better if you do that, thats what i know old skool c64 songs for.
More rules will be added if i do.
If you dont have a CSDb Acc and still want to participate, mail me to that8btchptuneguy(at)gmail.com |

86-99 is a long period. Early 90ies in a nutshell for me is:

I think a better idea would be to have a "late 80s" 86-89 compo. It's in that transition point between super oldschool and more polished sound design where there were a lot of unique and new ideas. |

I guess it was just a typo by Demosic? if I am right it seems like a pretty nice compo!

Ive changed the name of the compo to Late 80s C64 music compo, just to be more exact
Edit: Its now just "Late 80s C64 Compo" cuz me (and Maybe some other people) Maybe want to make/see new 80s style intros or demos!

I guess you could consider it a typo. I hope people will like the compo And participate, Maybe even an older scener who hasnt Done stuff since waaay long ago may come back cuz of this compo! |

With "Alas!", perhaps you meant "Voila!" or something similar? |

Damn, I was looking forward to listening to them all and having some say in the result.
I guess I'll just have to stick with looking forward to listening to them :D
