thebelovedmoon's Profile

Hello! You can call me thebelovedmoon.

I am new to tracker music, but I have been planning to release them for months. My group--The Moon/La Luna--has been coordinating with me with making some music together with the help of our contacts--most notably Emmannuel Ortega.

The music comprises of mostly musical covers from most music in a not-so-sophisticated form (if I can get the term right). But in most cases, chip music. Also trying out synths for a change of tone.

Filename references are as follows (updated 22 mar 2021):

belovedmoon/thebelovedmoon - The modules are my homemade compositions.
followthemoon/seguilaluna - The modules are composed for La Luna.
LunaSynth - The modules (separate from the DAW ones) are composed for my personal artist label, named after Luna--one of the characters in DOAXVV.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What program did you use to make these?
A: OpenMPT.

Q: What about when playing modules?
A: Native TMA player, OpenMPT (not libopenmpt tho, but in the editor), and ZXTune.

Q: What are the instruments you've used throughout the modules?
A: Mostly random soundfonts we found on the internet, but another would be Philharmonia instruments that Emmannuel suggests. If talking of samples, most are hand-made (chip).

Q: Can you make other music aside from covers as well?
A: We can, but it will take me time to finish it... Maybe in a week or three.

Q: How are most of your file size so big?
A: I can convert the samples to 8-bit to reduce the file size, but the problem is that I have to do it one by one. Currently OpenMPT doesn't support converting to 8-bit and 16-bit at once--unlike normalizing the samples. Furthermore, converting them to 8-bit may also degrade the audio clarity, but I'm looking for ways to get around that threshold.

Q: Bad Apple!!! When?
A: Soon ;)
