I find, in my fourties’ how nostalgic I am for those moments of discoveries I made in my late teens. I found mods very early in both my college life and internet exposure (~’94). Space Debris was one that stuck with me the hardest (along with Unreal ][ by Purple Motion which is really an s3m, not a mod). I was pleasantly surprised to find Kaarlonen’s blog about his experience composing the track.
- Annatar 5y agoS3M is just a MODule in a different format, reflecting the hardware capabilities of the PC-bucket sound cards. It‘s a technical necessity since mechanically, the way this type of music is composed and played is tied to the hardware.
- DrSiemer 5y agoS3M could do a lot more than the old MOD format though. Mainly the support for more channels and instruments made a world of difference. It's the same basic principle, but creating a track was far less of a priority puzzle in Scream Tracker.
