Why the PCE? Why Not the Genesis or Snes???

As soon as you type or say "haters gonna/gotta hate" for any purpose other than to mock the phrase, you instantly lower your IQ by 15 points. Those are the rules the universe plays by. Who are we to dissent?

That is a pretty kick-ass MD track, though. It's one of the best I've heard and does stuff I didn't know the MD could do. When I looked up some more of his stuff on YouTube, though, I wasn't as impressed.

I am convinced if you took something ho-hum/bland and said Tim Folin made it, Tats would go OMGrorgogGO TEH FOLIN IS GOD.

Yeah, it's not exactly the phrase I usually like to use as well, but sometimes you have to bit of overreacting to get the required attention

Indeed it is. And just imagine that it is his first and only ever try on that machine. In an interview he said, that he doesn't really like that machine for its undersophicated music capabilities (may be he refers to the very white noisy FM and stuff). But he tried the best possible to do with. I think, mission accomplished.

For what stuff did you looked up?

Made a yu0vid of one of my fav Tim Tunes


It is an unused tune from the game LED Storm. Great Bassline!
I wish they would have put it into the final game.

[sunteam_paul]

He did great things with the also. Share the Tim love!

The Coral Sea tune has an almost PC Engine quality to it.

[Tatsujin]

Yeah, love Tim's CUS of Amiga L.E.D. Storm. Very dream BGM, lissened many many hours to it in my childhood (especially intro and high-score), still do today

well when I pointed out that he f*cked up GnG on Amiga pretty bad, your reply was something along the lines of

WHO CARES HES SO GREAT THE BEST TUNES EVARRRRR

etc. etc.

[Tatsujin]

You pointed it out? Right. Just because you don't like it doesn't automatically mean it is completely messed up unusable utterly crap!

I like some of the G'n'G tracks. They are very raw and have that fearing undergroundish atmosphere. Especially the last level.

We can argue now about its sound quality in general. but from a composing point of view, a can't see much wrong with it.

Like what?  I didn't hear anything that I hadn't heard the Genesis do before.  The melody is great, though!

His guitar synth sound sounds better (perhaps due some some of the modulation) than any other guitar synth I've heard on the MD.

here's also a straight mp3 DL for the time trax tune (for those wo are interested):

It is known that this only tune was recorded on a MD model 2. Wonder of how different it would sound on a model 1

He didn't compose the tracks he butchered.  All he had to do was pick the right instrumentation and he didn't.

He quite composed all the tracks from very scratch. Can't you hear the difference between hims and the originals in terms of the compositions?
Only Level 2 & 4 are taken over from the original and even there he extended the songs to like tripple of the original length throwing his very own compositions in.
 
That tells me quite clear, that you barely lissened to them really.
