Short: Singing by Maruku 3:20 =:^) Author: Maruku Buranu (Mark Brown) mjbrown@lonestar.utsa.edu Uploader: gordon1 server uwindsor edu (Chris Gordon) Type: mods/st Architecture: generic A soundtracker mod from the boing/audio/music/st-nt/ directory. Readme file for MARUKU.Stevespam.lha Decompacts to: mod.Stevespam ... size 341K & a few bytes (can't remember) First of all, let me warn you that this mod REQUIRES a ProTracker playroutine... 1.1b is what I used so you ought to also (not really that necessary, but make sure you don't use anything less than ProTracker!). A little about this mod: First, why I bothered to upload it. I realized, finally, that the mods people tend to like are the ones with really long samples which tend to limit the musical coding possibilities. To me this is more like cheating; when people do this, they're practically turning ProTracker (or whatevertracker) into a sample-sequencer like with Audition4. But oh well... This mod is about as close to that type of music I'll ever touch. I think it's safe to say that this one doesn't have much music to speak of :). You'll see what I mean. Ok, why "spam"? I used some quotes (not direct samples) from a Monty Python skit (you know the one, perhaps). Here's a warning for ya: This mod is QUITE odd. I don't know of one stranger, except maybe mod.ALOHA... (The punk mod. Anyone know what the guy says when he's speaking in crazy German? If it were English, it sounds a lot like "His finger comes off whiska needle!") And finally, bear in mind that I DO REALIZE just how inefficient the mod is, and how unnecessarily large most of the samples are. But I didn't think it'd be worth it to go back and fix everything. Guess that's about it. Sorry for the rambling; that's just what I do :). Later! -Maruku Buranu (Marc Brown) mjbrown@lonestar.utsa.edu PS: Be certain to E-Mail me if you get time; I'm interested to know if anyone wants me to work on the sequel to Stevespam. PPS: There is a text file in sample number $1F. Read it (by saving it as a sample)... (The MaruSampleText is MY idea, heheh!) Greets: U4IA, Audiomonster, lots of San Antonians... (I can't get in touch with the first two for some reason...)
