Project Techno is an oldschool rave music disk released on to the Amiga public domain circuit at the Amiga Shopper Show in 1992. Released by Quartz it was suposedly the "First in a new series of music disks" by them, but I never saw any of their work again. It's not particularly ambitious on the graphics front as it just has a static image with scrolling text, but I always liked the music.

I think Quartz were based in or around Bridgwater, Somerset, UK, well they hosted an Amiga event there anyway, an advert for which can be found in the text on this demo. The winner of the floppy disk throwing competition from that day is still a friend of mine :)

As far as I know, there's no original music on this demo, looks like it was all sampled and then mixed together on tracker software. Full track listing can be found at the start of the scrolling text.

This was taken from a VHS recording I made from my Amiga A500+ at the time, which is why the quality is a little ropey. I've since lost the disk so can't reproduce it using emulation.

  • .MODs are files that contain notation/volume data etc aswell as raw pcm samples all in one file

    .MIDI only contains notation/volume data etc..

  • MIDI can't even compare to the Amiga MOD format. Clean your ears or find another MODs and understand why it's better.
