    @jamie_c - I was liking the Martin Galway vid. Never knew he came up with the arpeggio technique on the c64 that is pretty much synonymous with chiptune music.

    And for anyone who still likes that c64 sound:

    It's cool to hear and see from the devs of those classic games. Each is is only 2 mins by the way, they're from a film that's coming out soon (I think).

    You actually load games up on tape? Haha, that's great. How many joysticks do you get through each month trying to make the jumps on Last Ninja? ;)

    Are you as dedicated as this guy? Hearing that loading music always makes me smile.
