@typhlosion i know nothing about programming and don't really wanna get into but, but i love trackers and i think i am capable of making some pretty decent tracker music so uh, maybe i can do some demo music

@Violet @typhlosion yeah this is my position too but nobody wants to make demos with me

@squirrel @typhlosion i wanna have a go at actually producing music on actual hardware out of curiosity but ehh idk if i'll ever have the motivation to do that. i like modplug, that's the most i've used

@Violet @typhlosion if you mean using the actual hardware to make music targeting it the only time i did that was sid-wizard on c64 because there is no decent c64 tracker outside the c64 fuck goattracker

@typhlosion @Violet otherwise all my hardware-targeted music have been done in modern platforms

famitracker, deflemask, openmpt etc

@Violet i cannot compose melodies without a full keyboard in front of me sadly

i don't have a musical mind i just have a musical ear so i can do trial and error as long as i can bounce sounds off a keyboard

@Violet can't read music, can't think in music, don't know music theory, anything

@squirrel well yeah same, i just improv everything until it sounds good

@Violet i don't know how to improv or even play keyboards

i literally press random keys until they sound good together, this is not an exaggeration
