Great to see that the preservation effort is still alive.

Though having missed the glory years of tracker music, since a young age I have had a strong affection for its sound.

Another treasure trove for tracker music is The Mod Archive: https://modarchive.org/

Some of my favorite tracker music:

- Purple Motion - Starshine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3xHPIuX3s4

- Robert Allen - Epic Pinball Theme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqC9yS9oLCY

- Dr. Awesome - Space Deliria https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_g60hfiO1WY

- 4mat - Chipmusic is dead https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfSoqzkWhF8

- 4mat - Eternity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHzG7OJ76t8

For those who like ambient:

- Jazz Jackrabbit 2: Water https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyHJ7IWBpRs

- Deus Ex: Naval Base https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aj4jfiqiLw



Mod Archive has an in-browser player! Another comment somewhere in here links https://modtu.be which seems to be a fairly awesome in-browser player too!

Blurry lines between amiga and PC tracker scenes hey? there was a lot of back-and-forth. Impossible not to have Purple Motion on any classic-mods list though, I absolutely agree!


Bassoon tracker is another good in-browser tracker, with a nice Amiga-like feel to it.

It’s a slow burn… favorite parts at 4:52 and 8:51.
