That was my favorite track of the Helm contest!Guenon wrote:and incidentally also two points for my goofy SID emulation / kraut mashup. The voter had evaluated all tracks based on his taste in music, and hah, that's that.

Loved the recreated voice sounds in Neurological Conditions of the Horse. seems synths with bitcrushers are good for that, wonder how long before someone submits a song with discernible lyrics.

The Unfinished : Any two soundsets of Choice:
Zebra Quasar Dark Edition and
Zebra Borealis Dark Edition
Also, activating this bonus:
