On 11/15/24, I performed a set for an annual streaming show from Miami called Bit Scape 2024.  Check it out here.  I used a guitar and an old computer that can only play three notes at a time (three channels.. or three “oscillators”).  I use the old computer (C-64) as an instrument and then play some 3-channel compositions off of old floppy disks, since it’s real music data that would have run on it in 1982.

It’s a nostalgia trip, but I moreso like working within limitations and with cool groups.  With deadlines, so things get finished.

You can find videos of the above and some guitar riffing on my YouTubes.

I’ve played, recorded and published prog rock-ish music under the “DivertigO” moniker for much of my life.  There’s some of that on Soundcloud.  This is “normal” music.. not limited to 3 notes.

Here is all my 3-voice chiptune music, playable from the DeepSID site which emulates a real 80s computer sound chip.

Games

Some games in progress for the Commodore 64 (the actual 80s machine).

Kong Fu Masters (C-64)
Bess-believe the spelling is correct.

Motorstein (C-64)
Metal-music-themed.  Game art is made entirely of keyboard symbols PETSCII.

Judge Dredd (C-64)
It was 99% done in 2021.. and now it’s 2026, so.  Graphics by the artist Lobo are really good.   We dig working within limitations.

Apps

In the late 2010’s I did an app called “Pro-Tools Shortcut Trainer”, a courseware app that teaches audio engineers how to use Pro Tools.  

The next app to be released is “The Deturbulizer”, a new approach for droning sounds for sleep or cessation of neurological hullabaloo.  Demo of it is here to the side.
