Retrix

Read the name and guess. Yep, Retrix is a remix of tetris. Am I not original?

The Retrix songs are the last tracks I made with ModPlug. I won’t say I mastered ModPlug, but I do say that I’m proud of this work and my control over ModPlug. However, I had the same feeling as when I made songs in MIDI: I realised the limits and wanted to get beyond them. So it was time to move on. I’m working in FL Studio now, but more on that later.

Retrix comes in many versions. Only 3 of ‘em are actually finished: a rock version, a trance / electro / techno / jumpstyle / whatever version, and one version that mixes the best of all versions, even those that didn’t make it. In respective order given the “awesum” names Retrix Rox, Retrix Trax and Retrix Mix. Am I not original?

I’m sorry that the .it files are not available for download, I lost them in a power-down. Learned the importance of backing up the hard way. As a sort of replacement I converted them to ogg for if you ever want to use them in a tetris game that would so much profit that you would have to pay for a mp3 license. In that case it would save you about 2 minutes at best. Yeah I know, I’m too good for this world. Now donate.

Stoneslide

As I got more and more control over the ModPlug tracker, I knew where the effects were, but sometimes I tend to overdo some of them. For example, in Stoneslide, I kinda turned the “Distortion” button a little too high, which gives the whole a very muddy feeling. That has the effect of blurring in the beginning, but I think it suits the rhythm quite well in the middle.

It’s not my best, but why not give it a try?
