Series 3: Episode 3 - Sega Master System [TI SN76489; 3ch square + 1ch noise mono] + [YM2413; 9ch FM / 6ch FM + 5ch noise mono]
Finally, I can release the Master System episode! Released in the mid-80s, the Sega Master System was a modest failure in Japan and the US, yet managed to last a decent nine years in Europe - all because of the right software, the right distribution method and the lack of a Nintendo monopoly in...

Series 2: Episode 5 - Commodore Plus/4 and Commodore 16 [TED (Text EDitor) 2ch tone or 1ch tone + 1ch noise; 4 octave mono)
[Requested by Frurry from SLAYRadio IRC] The Commodore 16 was supposed to be the successor to the VIC 20, but with the lack of a SID chip at a time when the C64 gained its fanbase, this computer was just left in the dark and died a quick death. The same for the Commodore Plus/4, which was meant…

The April Fool
There was a lot of activity in the LondonFur community as a result of my April Fool's prank. Most were surprised and took it in good humour. Some had taken it as another chance to say I'm trouble. You may have noticed that I have not replied to any of the comments or entries to date, saving it…

Pilot 4½ - POHD-FLIP!
My pilots had a few mistakes - I decided to correct them, alongside playing some chipmusic that didn't make the final cut of the series. This also includes a parody of Reyn Ouwehand, plus a chance for me to act like a fool to keep things balanced (I'm not here to be unfair and offensive).You…
