The PC version of Final Fantasy VII music included an XG MIDI interpretation of the PS1 classic and it's pretty amazing!

Here is the fighting music on my Yamaha MU50 MIDI module...

@verge would be great until they totally fill the place with ads left, right and centre! Even Facebook and Instagram is littered with ads back to Threads.

Mastodon is the place to be.

I love the Acorn Archimedes RISC OS, so when I spotted a clock in the style of the operating system - well, what could I do...

Now it hangs on my office wall looking splendid, although I may sacrifice accurate time for a peaceful non-ticking sound life 🙃

Spent all my life not owning an Amiga, then within a few days I end up with two of the A500!

One received today needs hardly any work, and well the other needs restoring and is currently untested until I've properly checked it over.

Playing a little Simon the Sorcerer of course on today's delivery for a little point and click adventure fun.

Tweaked some of the Simon the Sorcerer 2 soundtrack to reduce some of the bass and horns while balancing throughout for use within @scummvm. So close to finishing the enhanced version of the music I can taste the swampling stew...

You can listen to an early preview here:

@dansup @pixelfed any idea why many of the images appear blank on the import list?

An import all option or import batch of 200 1 of 2 or something too 😇

@Gargron happy birthday sir!

@Gargron thank you ?
