Chris Jarvis - Blue Flame

A beautiful song, almost forgotten...

Since I didn't want to just have some static image for the video, I created a little feature presentation of the program it was made in - Impulse Tracker.

In the 90s I was using Impulse Tracker 2.16 (not 100% sure about the version number, the main color was blue anyway). I had a great demo tune. Symphonic/cosmic rock with a great reverbing guitar like Tangerine Dream.

So I did a search and this tune appears to be the one I am looking for (still knew it exists after more than 10 years). Must admit I am not 100% sure yet. How do the other demo tunes sound like?

Anyway, thanks for posting it. Good to keep the memories alive.

the other demo song for this version was Drifting Onwards...

as for other versions, I believe most of the demo songs were also done by Chris Jarvis, his modules are for example at "amiga music preservation" site

well made video and great tune of course, was this a demotune in IT package?

[TomGrus]

yes, it was included with the last IT (v2.14)...

Chris Jarvis forever It's an amazing track and I marvel how good it still sounds considering that was created on a DOS Program... But then again Impulse Tracker is a masterpiece, a brilliant piece of software.

By the way, my favorite track composed by Chris Jarvis is "Northern Sky", a real masterpiece. It is in ".it" (impulse tracker) format and can be found in the internet but not in Youtube. I will try to upload it

This program made me fall in love with making music. And this song made me wanting to make beautiful like this! Wow this takes me back :D. I made a lot of songs with Impulse Tracker. Unfortunatly lost a lot of them due to HD crashes:(
