These had to be extremely compressed, but it gave composers loads of options. FM, or midi sounds, Nintendo allowed developers to create sampled audio clips. Next, let's talk about the SNES/Super Famicom. See if you can pick out the samples from the SC-55 and the adlib midi libraries. The Roland interface objectively produced the best sounds, but it was also an expensive accessory. This allowed users to switch midi interfaces or sound banks and not change the song much. 00 was always Piano, 10 was glockenspiel, 37 was slap bass, etc. Then, in the 90s, Roland released the SC-55 (Sound Canvas) and with it created a standard list of midi instruments. Midi instruments were made as needed at first there weren't any rules. This had a really interesting, slightly buzzier sound, but it worked well. The OPL sound chips could work to emulate these instruments using wav and FM synthesis. This is why you had to select separate sound devices for music and sound effects.

The hardware had to support this, so you'd have your standard sound card plus midi. many of these "instruments" had that distinct cheesy midi sound, but you could use them in interesting ways. You didn't have to rely on PSG/PCM anymore you could use emulated instruments.

Then, in the 90's, midi became a thing and PC gaming music was drastically changed. This may sound similar to the NES, but the typical Yamaha sound chips found in PC sound cards could be used in a greater variety of ways. The album begins with a couple songs dedicated to the early days of DOS gaming. It's a tribute to those who crafted the soundtracks of our childhoods. It isn't designed to be any one thing, it's just the music I like to make. so you may hear a bit of everything in this album. I've also been listening to a bit of dungeon synth. Recently I've been exploring the soundtracks from games and systems I never owned (especially the Sharp X68000 and the NEC PC-98). Now that I'm older I've been able to go back and fill in the gaps. DOS, NES, and SNES melodies were constantly running through my 12-year-old brain.
