The parts involving sample #5, especially around the "I am not an atomic playboy!" line, are a carbon copy of a section from Misty and Daeron's "Reverie of Truth", released earlier in 1993.
Legendary tune, enough said.
Even though it isn't my top one from the Purple Motion's works...
I AM NOT AN ATOMIC PLAYBOY
It's been said before, but this is one of *the* defining songs of tracker music. It's just an amazing techno song in general, taking you on a sort of journey not unlike long form progressive rock bands back in the day.
i didnt even know you could make music on a tracker this is so insane. i thought it was for playing with voices. never even occurred to me to make a song #mindblown
it is unexplainable on how great this module is. the way the song was composed is amazing, listening to this module honestly can never get old.
The greatest tracker song ever made. Hail to the mighty Purple Motion.
Absolute classic! Love the demo, especially.
This track is epic and simply legendary! I heard it back at the end of the 1990ies and still enjoy listening to this track.
"I'm not an atomic playboy..."
This is just to good! I watched how purple motion made this song on the internet on scream tracker! I don't know how long it took him, but man that's some fabulous work! My favorite part is the vocal part of the song. It just made it most interesting to the track itself. T R A N S M I S S I O N
Absolutely amazing, even after all of these years.
I am definitely not the first and not the last who leaves a comment on this module. Maybe I will surprise someone, but this is not the best sounding .s3m module I have ever heard on this site. But given the fact that this module, at the time I am writing this comment, has been favourited 215 times and downloaded 262792 times (wow, #2 most downloaded module now has only 133003 downloads – almost 2 times less), it becomes absolutely clear that here we face a platinum classic of the whole world of tracked music, an ultimate masterpiece for its time, a must-have for everybody who collects tracker modules, a must-listen for everyone who likes that kind of music. It also works good together with its origin – the "Second Reality" demo, but without the demo this module is still great. For me, there is nothing more memorable in this demo than outstanding Purple Motion's music. My personal respect goes to Purple Motion for making a gem that is still recognizable after almost 27 years.
This s3m is the best part of a groundbreaking demo, and can still wow people more than 25 years later. Get down!
You can't be serious... This is MADNESS! Ok, enough old Sparta meme references aside, this is the best track so far I've heard from a music tracker. If you have never heard this, GO LISTEN TO THIS ASAP. This is a worthy 10 I'm putting on here.
It was over 25 years ago and I could not stop to watch this demo/intro. Music heard on Gravis Ultrasound was fantastic. Basically this module brought me here - I wanted to rip it from file but then thought: maybe I'll find it somewhere in the web and I am here. Who never saw this demo, link in bottom. Believe me that 25 years ago this music and this graphic was ona PC compatible computer simply breathtaking.
We had DX386 processors and 4MB RAM!

It's not a soundtrack, it's a movie ! I discovered this track out of context (without the demo) and was immediately impressed by the musicality, the technique, the talent put simply. A must have !
A classic one. It's amazing how they made it in just five hundred MB. Also look how many commands were used. Though the tune itself is not that catchy the amount of work applied to this mod is great.
Complete shivers down my spine with the demo playing back over my eyeballs... Man, seeing the demo back in the day blew my mind. This just brought it all back!
A true classic masterpiece. Goes better with the actual Second Reality demo though!
This song makes the demo appear when eyes are closed. Talent must be recognised.
A genre-defining mod. Very original and unlike the kind of trash being rated 10 nowadays.
For sure one of the greatest piece of art I ever experienced.
Always gives me shivers during the scroller displayed after Ulik,
and after the "ten seconds to transmission" sample. A masterpiece.
One of the best modules of all time, and also one of my favorite modules. Purple Motion pushed ST3 to it's limits with this tune...he takes 8-bit samples and turns them into digital magic!!!
Help make this tune the most downloaded module!!!! :-)
One of the best songs ever. Purple Motion really has talent!
This is awesome, but I think it only really goes well with the demo itself. The impressive visuals and stuff. Defo a classic eitherway. :)
I agree with Burd and the countless others on the archive when they say that for this tune to be almost 20 or more years old is a legendary feat. I mean for it to still be the #1 Most Revered tune still to this date with almost 100,000 downloads is a feat to be darned proud of. Great work and I love this tune, this is why this scene is still growing in a positive way.
You got to be shittin' me!
I was in the scene back then, what a classic!
Definitely legend material!
This song brings back memories.
For a long time, I played music on my PC, an old 80286 system, with a sound card I made myself out of simple logic and a resistor network. It was 8 bits at first then 16. I used a mod player that could use a "resistor card" to play music.
Then I got a Gravis Ultrasound, and wow... I was amazed.
I said in my profile that when you force me to name an artist as my favorite that Purple Motion would be the first to come to mind, and if you wanna know why, listen to this track. I know this baby from the "2nd Reality" demo by Future Crew (of which PM was a member) and especially with the great coding and gfx work of that demo this song completely kicks ass. Great to find it here as I lost the S3M file and I couldn't rip it from the demo itself (which works perfectly in DosBox btw).
I have heard this song a lot. Though a bit repetitive it is a good song.
This is not a great track just out of nostalgic reasons, even almost twenty years after it was composed it still feel fresh and exciting. Purple Motion's gift for composing was already clear in abundance in this track.
Simply GR8!!! I'm totally new here. I'm from Cuba where few people listen to this kind of music. This song is what I was looking for... I'll download more from this artist. This website totally rocks!
Absolutely one of the best of the best. When revisiting my mod collection (now nearly 20 years after I first encountered the scene), it's still the first one I think of. A special mention goes to the outro of the song - it's wonderfully dark and mysterious. Fantastic work.
This is nearly 20 years old, but still seems to be the best mod track out there. That is a great feat.

1. Very good synth part after 2 minutes;
2. It reminds me on the Amiga Spaceballs demo - State of the Art - Condom Corruption module.
3. Space Trax - Atomic Playboy (Original 12" Version) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FggkLw4ZJB0
sampled it also for use in Hallucination II housemix (Spacecake) soon to folow ...
4. Why are the drums only at one channel (right) ? s3m could do
better
5. ovaral a very good composition and a caress for the ear to listen to (over and over again) !
