Songs No. 74 and No. 75 Finished

I finished two new songs. (Actually I finished them over 2 weeks ago but I forgot to upload them with the rest of the other songs).

No. 74 - "If I Knew"
No. 75 - "Running on the Dance Track"

I'm also working on an alternate version of 74 that uses guitars and a piano instead of synth instruments, but I'm having trouble with the lead in the second half.

Song Archive Uploaded

I have just uploaded my entire set of tracked modules, a whopping total of 73! I had no idea I had so many! I guess over the years they can really add up...

(Go to the Music section)

Anyway, because there were so many, I did not do a writeup for all of them. Instead, I added a simple script to the music page that will dynamically list all of the files in a certain directory.

Some of these songs are extremely old--I found a date stamp of 2003 on one of them. I have tried to sort them all in order of completion by using a 4-digit number in the filenames. However, I really don't know for sure what the order was; after all, some of these songs are over five years old.

Please check out some of these songs, at least the first few. I want to know what you think!

MikMod in Python

Well, after neglecting my studies for about a day and I half I finally managed to make libmikmod.so work with Python using ctypes. That means it is, in fact, possible to play tracked module music using Python. Soon I will release a Python package that will wrap MikMod completely and implement some Python classes that will make it very easy to use MikMod in a so-called "Pythonic" way. I will use it to implement the script on Alphaios.net that will automatically display information about modules that I upload.

...at least, that's the plan. Everyone knows how bad I am about keeping those kind of promises. ^_^
