Two playlists, one featuring the Amiga Aegis Sonix synth above, and one featuring the Amiga Deluxe Music Construction Set below. Don't miss the first track and it's description below. It's pretty funny - some musique concrete for you. Many of you might recognize the name Peahix from one, his Optigan.com endeavors, and two some of his many videos and covers posted here on MATRIXSYNTH.

1. 1987 Amiga Deluxe Music Construction Set - Music for Bloom County Contest

"Here's something I dug up today that I haven't thought of in years and figured was loooong gone. In 1987, Bloom County had a contest where you could submit your own original song for Billy & The Boingers, the band in the comic strip. Well, this is what I came up with on my Amiga. A couple of the sounds had gone missing, so I had to replace them with other sounds, but, well, I don't think that matters very much. Needless to say, I didn't win the contest."

2. Amiga Deluxe Music Construction Set - Fugue in D Minor

"This is an original fugue in D minor more or less in the style of JS Bach that I wrote on my Amiga when I was a teenager, around 1987. I wrote this before I'd had any formal music theory training, so I'm sure the counterpoint and voice leading is all wrong wrong wrong, but oh well, it sounded authentic enough to me back then."
