Rating
======
RATING (IMHO): **** (4 out of 4 stars)
REASON: The music plays through a few different styles. I
think it has a classic sound. It's currently my
favorite mod. The first time I heard it, I could've
sworn I'd heard it before.
About the music
===============
MUSIC TYPE: Kinda new-age, Not Techno, Not Dance, Not Rave
REPETITIVENESS: not repetitive
LOOPING: Optional (can loop, but not necessary)
CHANNEL SWITCHING: Not noticeable.
(When an instrument "travels" from one channel to another, usually
quite annoying when it is the lead instrument.)
About the samples
=================
SAMPLE QUALITY: Very good.
NOTICED SAMPLES: One sample from Star Control
EFFECTS: Used to pitch-bend the main sample. Very well done.
General Info
============

512K Chip Yes, With extra fast mem though.
1 M Chip Yes
2 M Chip Yes
LOCATION AVAILABLE: ftp wuarchive.wustl.edu
ftp nic.funet.fi

MultiPlayer
and no IBM players that I have heard so far!!!! hehe
Other Notes
===========
I hope other people out there will join in with me and review other
music modules, so that good authors will get recognition, and dweeby
nom-nom mod listeners (like myself) will know what a lot of those
mods are that we see out there.
