Raw Spectronica (ZX Spectrum beeper album)

1-Bit ZX Beeper album for the ZX Spectrum

Play the whole music album on a ZX Spectrum emulator such as FUSE or load into a real machine - press 'n' for next tune

This is the first time this compilation has been made available in this form, including the original Raw Spectronica tunes and the bonus track 'March Of the Biomech' added.

Some of the tunes use the QCHAN beeper engine by Shiru which is similar to the engine used by Tim Follin in the 1980s but is also quite thin so the volume and BASS should be turned up for these.

3. March of the Biomech (Phaser 3 engine)

4. P.F.M. (QCHAN)
