> So, this release marks my final transition to using IT. Coming from an
> Amiga (PT) background, FT was the obvious choice for me, due to the
> interface and other things I won't get into here. It has its good sides,
> but I have to say I now feel like I've been missing out on a lot, not
> having 'converted' earlier.
>
> As far as the tune itself goes, all I feel like I'm qualified to say at
> this point is that I'm pleased enough with it to release it. If you're a
> hater of 'cheesy' lead lines, you won't like this one, in fact, if you
> are, I might suggest keeping away from all my stuff to save some time and
> trouble. No IU tune without big leads, not so far at least. People thought
> my MC5 entry ('Sweetly Beguiled') had a lot of chord changes. Think again.
> I did try to avoid any really abrupt modulations this time though, and I
> do think the progression works out pretty well. At close to six minutes,
> it's a bit on the long side, but hey, listen to it in two sessions if you
> want. Obviously, for the best playback results, you should use Impulse
> Tracker v2.13, but MikIT v0.90 seems to do the job nicely as well. CP with
> the latest IT player beta might work also, but the Interwave driver
> crashes on my system after a while so I can't be too certain. Don't even
> try to play this on anything that can't handle NNAs (e.g. the current
> versions of ModPlug and YAMP), as the tune relies on them quite heavily.
> Oh, and do send me feedback at my hotmail address <iunit@hotmail.com>, or
> if you wish to receive a reply, try my 'real' one <vlm@sgic.fi>.

> A lucid time? Well, it sounded nice, and it's something I wouldn't mind

> The instruments used in this tune are mostly from various MC5 entries. The
> details are as follows:

> 01,08: 'Goldenrod' (m5v-gldn.it)
> 02 : 'Twilight Groove' (m5v-twi .it)
> 03 : 'Above the Eagles' Cries' (m5v-atec.it)
> 04 : 'The Shadow Exploded' (m5v-shad.xm)
> 05 : 'Bitter Sweetness' (m5v-bisw.it)
>
> All the drum and cymbal samples used in instruments 7 & 8 are by me. Feel
> free to use them, but credit me if you do so.

> All of my releases under this silly handle are available on the Hornet
> archive. Go to www.hornet.org and do a search on 'imaginary unit'. Here's
> the current list.

> 'Imaginary Unit' (xm, imaginar.zip or iu-imagi.zip)
> 'Exit' (xm, iu-exit .zip)
> 'Plasticine Cities' (xm, iu-plast.zip)
> 'Sweetly Beguiled' (xm, m5i-swee.zip or iu-sweet.zip)
> 'Out of the Undefined' (xm, iu-outof.zip)

> If you're interested in my older four channel releases under various
> groups and handles, you're going to have to find them yourself. I have a
> bunch of half-decent, unreleased chiptunes from around '94 lying around,
> which I might consider putting out at some point, along with a new tune
> perhaps, or I may not. No idea.
>
> Blah. What else? Well, like stated above, write to iunit@hotmail.com or
> vlm@sgic.fi if you want to get in touch. The latter preferred if you
> expect a quick reply. That's all for now. See you somewhere, sometime.
