Testing out BambooTracker with this short song loop I made.
If you're wondering what BambooTracker is, it's a new tracker music program by rerrahkr that lets you make music for the Yamaha YM2608, the soundchip of the NEC PC-8801/9801 computer. At the time I recorded this, the ADPCM channel wasn't implemented. Starting from v0.4.0, the ADPCM channel is now fully included. Now, anyone who isn't a fan of MML can make YM2608 music. Also, it isn't shown here, but I am using the hi-hat from the Rhythm Sound Source portion of the YM2608.
Here's the GitHub link to this program: github.com/rerrahkr/BambooTracker/releases

![Spades Archive Tunes - The Pre-Chiptune Collection (2014-2017) Part 3
In part 1, I previously mentioned in the description that I had lost access to some songs due to an app expecting me to pay the instrument packs I used for the songs. I got access to them now. All I had to do was go to the Apple website and change my Apple ID, and then go into the app and select the Restore Purchases option. My Apple ID was previously connected to a Yahoo account that I have since deleted, so that might have been why I didnt have access to them for a while. So, I decided to do part 3 of my pre-chiptune collection. I also decided to include some songs that I forgot to put in part 1 and 2. Not a lot here, but at least I can say that I now shared my full catalog of my old non-chiptune songs from 2014-2017.
Additional notes about some of the songs posted in the pinned comment.
