1996 | 1997 | 1998 | 1999 | 2000 | 2001 | 2002

There’s a lot of stuff here, and some tracks are more “accessible” than others so here are some recommendations (tracks I like and ones that have received good feedback from others):

nonsense in basic
variation #57
momo
desert scimitar (frisky mix)
conspiracy theorem
positron
orbit
revolution

Listening/Playback: I recommend XMPlay for playback since it plays everything nearly perfectly.
Modplug Player may be better for the tunes I wrote in Modplug Tracker.
WinAmp is OK for most tunes, but sometimes messes up.
I wrote most of these tracks wearing headphones and as a consequence they sound better that way (my production skills aren’t up to much.)
