A classic. I still watch this now and then, and it continues to be enjoyable, in its own hypnotic way. It certainly has one of the best 4k synths of its time.

Good! The tune is surprinsingly decent for a 4k of that time...
Good one.
Very enjoyable stuff - and I really like those colours :)
Wow!

THE MAKING OF
WAIT
After some experiences with the SID chip and my recently arrived Korg poly61 synth, I had gathered much knowledge about subtractive synths.
So I wanted to make a sample generator.
It was quite simple. Just some basic waveforms.
And with ADSR envelope, ofcause (such a big shame that all .mod trackers didn't have that...)
I also added detune to make it more fat.
Chords were simply done my mixing some 037, 047, 038, 058, 049, 059 combinations of some samples.
The tricky part was to simulate filter... I couldn't, so I made a workaround..
I made 16 stages of each waveform by simply smoothing the waveform.
Repeating that 15 times by smoothing the previous sample.
The sawtooth gave impressive good result when sweep a chord.
I first generated some samples and wrote a song in protracker using them.
After that, I made my 100% own simple player to play simple sequences.
I rewrote that song into my own player.
Then I had this little standalone .exe approx filling only 2kb..!
My brother (Dr.Who) who was always impossible to impress with glenz-vectors or any other technical achevements on Amiga, suddenly showed up in my room.
I showed him my 2KB sound preview exe.
He instantly asked 'IS THAT ONLY 2 KB!!???'... 'you must create a 4K intro with that!!'
He was impressed! So that was something.
Then I found my usual voxelspace engine, which is quite simple and converted it into Ham6. I added vertical mapping mode into it too :)
Also some simple bumpmap mode also to give variation.
These routines needed texture, so I also had to include my usual texture generator.
All within 4KB.
At the TCP97 I showed a preview of the intro on an Efreet member's Amiga.
When the chords played, Lemmus said something like 'Jarre er også dejlig...' (Jarre is also nice..) in a bit friendly sarcastic way :)
Then a member of Puzzle (Hexagon?) asked me 'Is that your 40k intro?'
'No, 4k', I answered...
I won a backup-tape drive in the compo..

At 2:12 i made a remake of the 'Wait' tune:
