Hello friends, this is how PC music was before soundcards were common. This is how your games sounds like if you owned a 286 or 386 without additional soundcard.
For this demonstration, I used the SoundBlaster 16 CT2980, because it has a connector for the PC speaker on board! That makes recordings much easier for me.

You may think that PC speaker sound is pretty bad, and you're absolutely right:-)
Anyway, the melody of ALOYS is pretty nice, isn't it? And Outrun has a nice intro, too.


LISTEN - ENJOY - LIKE - SUBSCIBE

Ernie,
