To Let Me Know You’re Alive

For Battle of the Bits Winter Chip 9.

You make the sound I can’t ignore… to let me know you’re alive.

My first completed SID. Created with Deflemask, which was a stronger tool than I had expected. The C64 sound chip has a lot of unique characteristics that I didn’t expect to be implemented into a tracker that can program for many sound chips.

To all of us who have graduated from the NSF format, best wishes in all of your endeavors.

This song was originally a song with lyrics and guitars and such, intended for the credit scroll of a project I didn’t want to finish. I liked the form and the melodies, but never liked the words, so this was a great opportunity to present it in a better way.
