It's really great. I also did a TX81Z song 12 years ago.

Bought the TX81Z really cheap back in the day via eBay. I loved the OS of the machine, the most wonderful thing about it is that with only 5 buttons and a 2 line LED display you could tweak any detail about the sound, including changing the FM algorithm



I love the mix of the ambience and the narrator. Those PSAs and old narrations really add an interesting dimension to it. Question, where do you find those voice samples?


In "Cybernetics" the voice is from Stafford Beer [1] lecturing about the Cybersyn project [2]

In "Basilisk" it's Buckminster Fuller in the first minutes of 'Everything I Know' [3]

Your track "Cybernetics" is honestly really good and will likely be on repeat for some time going forward.

Reminds me a little bit of Lemon Jelly.


Love it too, will be a great track for night time riding in the city
