I gotta put this back up here. Guy who posted it got bounced, and it’s almost embarrassing how many times I listened to it over and over, but it’s just… addictive.
NPR. Through:
digital player -> tube preamp -> tube crossover
then
3000WPC SS (solid state)-> homemade 18” subs
1500W SS monoblocks -> 15” woofers (in ginormous ca 1950’s corner horn cabs)
30WPC tube amp -> horn midranges
30WPC tube amp -> air motion transformer tweeters (3 per side)
I'm at a small somewhat remote lake right now with no people or cars except mine and listening to the buzz of nature that I can't hear or feel in the city. It's very calming.
Haven’t heard that one, but I grew up on Atari/Amiga game and demo music from late 80s and early 90s… 8-bit samples, 4 channel modules… there was some really great/creative stuff being composed using those limited resources back then. Some of it got remade decades later, using modern audio equipment, and it sounds great. I’ve got thousands of those old modules as well as remakes.
This is a remake of Green Beret game music, originally written on C-64. Huge nostalgia factor, if you know the original.
