Originally came up with this tune idea while improvising on my newly-acquired Wurlitzer MLM-101 square wave organ. Decided to make a chiptune version in GoatTracker II for 6581 SID.

The current mp3 was rendered from GoatTracker II, since it sounded super distorted in Sidplay3 for some reason (possibly an issue with my filter usage?). If any C64 owner wants to hardware render it for me that would be awesome; I'm curious if the heavy distortion is present on the real thing.

The distortion level can differ between different SIDs. The issue with the 6581 is that the filter curve is not consistent between the chips like the 8580.

awesome... nocturne? on repeat <3

(btw. if it distorts, pretend it was deliberate :> don't have real 6581, but it comes out DIRRRTY in all players i tried & goat emulation is far from being reliable - still, it sounds better this way imho)
