Man, again. This shit just passed me by. I guess when I was hyped up on Japanese music I only looked for lyrical stuff in the hiphopsphere so I didn't bother.
I learned Fast Tracker 2 in the early 90's on a IBM 386. I paid $500 for a Soundblaster 16 bit card when they came out and another $200 for a 100 MB hard drive for samples. All that just to make bleep bloop music like this.

I respect your dedication.
It always takes me by surprise when I hear prices of old stuff. Like you assume since it's so early in its development it's slightly shitty and it wouldn't be as expensive, but nah. Seems like computer stuff have kept a pretty steady pace in terms of prices. I watched some John Romero interview the other day where he mentioned that Wolfenstein 3d was sold for $60. And that's 1992 money!
