i think tracker music and early computer music in general teaches us an important lesson: it's not about the price tags on your equipment or how many tools you have- it's about using your creativity and drive to use the tools at your disposal to make something great.

Stardust Memories is still divine in 2019

Elysium and Stardust Memories, two of my favourite songs of all time. I never fail to get a chill down my spine and goosebumps when they come up in my play list.

Stardust Memories rocks! I don't even know how many times in my life i've heard this masterpiece. Respect.

Elysium, the very first mod when I didn't even know what a mod was. High-energy music for everyone!.

Guys !! Jester/Sanity was the best MOD music creator ever !! I had it im young heart about MSX music with fast tracker 2 here, in Brasil !! 90’s 8bit Music !!! I had a music called KNGDMSKY (Kingdom Sky)… simply Awesome !! Cant find it… Thanx man to compile this video with this piece of my childhood !! 😢

I love how many protracker musicians used great pitch bending for their melody.

Elysium got me into dj'ing, safe to say that this track changed my life.

ProTracker is a thing of beauty. As always I am hypnotised 😵‍💫

I was a huge fan of Jester and Elysium is my all time favourite Amiga module. Watching his mods playing in a tracker was always so fascinating too, seeing him push those 4 channels to their maximum potential.

YES! I used to love listening to Jester's tracker tunes back in the 90s

Thank you so, so much for uploading this. Here's my story: So after realizing the Mozart sound card my dad bought didn't include an OPL3 sound chip - despite that at 10 years old I repeatedly told him to buy a Creative Sound Blaster - I was devastated. I loved electronic music and video game music was just not there, even though I had great games like Doom and The Incredible Machine 2. I couldn't make it work, if it was even possible. So then I realized something: there was music in cheap Spanish magazines (PC Manía IIRC) that included CDs, with shareware and demo versions of games. And it was then that I discovered the world of trackers! With a trusty copy of Sound Tracker 3. I instantly fell in love with them. It was something so incredible, like nothing I ever heard before. Each month I would go through all the tracks sent by readers in floppy disks (files couldn't be < 1.44 MB) to the magazine's offices. So once, dicking around, after I typed in C:\VGACopy>dir I realized there was a .MOD file over there, a floppy disk duplicating utility folder. Curious, I loaded it on Scream Tracker and, lo and behold, it was Elysium, only I learned its name 10 minutes ago. Awesome track.

Stardust Memories... Many hours in front of tv playing some Genesis games on my PS2 and scrolling through the Pgen menu hearing this track :')

Stardust Memories is a pure masterpiece.

I was in my pre-teens/teenage years when I first heard Cyberride. It blew my mind. It clearly had a big impact to me and got me into scene music and later to music in general. I still listen to old tracker songs every now and then - when I want to take a trip on a nostalgy-train.

Jester is one of the best tracker amiga musicians

Keeping good memories in mind is a great power. I used to listen to these musics in late 80s and 90s. Never got out of my brain. In a world surely having real problems it is a great source of hope and ideas to me.

Cyberride is the soundtrack for the Palm OS game Bike or Die! 2 I'm here just for that, I haven't lived long enough to get to know the Amiga in it's days of glory :)

This does bring back memories and a rewarding sensation of comfort. Thank you.

wow omg love it, especially Stardust memories, but all these songs are amazin

This is great. Awesome tracks. Thank you so much for uploading!

Thanks. This brings back a lot of great memories.

Elysium I listen so much to that amazing tune! :-D Thanks for taking me back to an awsome time! :-D

The important point is that he his one of the best to this day and has been since the beginning: apparently out of nowhere the sanity team released from the beginning only hits and Jester mastered mods making from protracker / noisetracker start . It would be great to know how he did it. He surely has some huge music background, father / mother in that matter...

Epic stuff mate =) Thank you for uploading this! Because the awesome music makes my working days less harsh on me ;)

Thanks for the video. Jester has been one of the most talented and great musician during Amiga-Mod period. Elysium is a masterpiece and is my favourite Jester's song.

Awesome compilation !!!!

Another earsplitting hit from the jester

This is really great!

Thanks for this. My introduction to Jester was "Basic Instinct". Amazing track.

Cool, thanks for the upload!

Thanks for this Amiga music fix!

A lot of these were familiar - I have listened to A LOT of MODS from back in the day :)

Ooooooohh STARDUST MEMORIES !!!!! i remember .... my children's dream on my AMIGA .

Fantastisch! Da kommen Erinnerungen hoch =D Ich glaub', ich pack gleich meinen A3000 aus!

Thank you for the music.

Ohh! I abolutely LOVE that.

Jeesh, reminds me so much of Unreal Tournament 99. All their track is Tracker music, and memorable till this day! If anyone curious - look up UT- GoDown , UT - facing worlds , UT-Mech8.

Always loved the Protracker oscilloscopes. So crispy!

Cyberride may be my favorite protracker mod ever. Jester manager to make an Epic melodic track and yet also very techno-like. Later guys tried to emulate it, but never came close imho.

The voice clips, those are just great.

you got some skills this predates mtv music generator i can see why alot of trance rave techno music of the 90s sounded similar

Now that I see titles from the mods I realize some of them are spot on (Nazgul for instance).

Beyond awesome!

Cyberride, best track here, blown away!

Elysium is the best music from Jester

Amazing! My favourite theme. Good job. Best regards from Russia.

Awesome!! :)

I owe a sacrifice to the 4-channel, 31-sample gods, even if I never had and will never have an Amiga.

I learned about "Cyberride" because it was featured in some random iOS physics bicycle offroading game called Bike or Die 2 that came out during the early days of the mobile app boom. That was probably the last place I would ever expect to hear a tracker song from 1993.

Why are you guys doing this to me!!?? This is like a 35 year old FLASHBACK!!

Magnificent :)

Wrauu... just love the intro molecule's revenge tune, great vibe. Man. I wish I made back in the good old Amiga days :-)

I remember downloading a crap ton of .mod music from a couple BBS’s as well as a DOS player that had a nice GUI. I wish I was able to go back in time to relive the good ole days.

Elysium by Jester - One of the best mods on the planet 11/10! Come On!

Grew up in the 2000s. Sad I never got to enjoy this kind of stuff when I was a kid. But that doesn't mean I can't appreciate it now! My thanks goes to LGR and the 8-bit Guy for introducing me to all this cool retro tech and media!

Good old days. Cyberride is my favourite, but then I'm a bit biased :-D

I just released an album that I made between 1994-1998 on my Mac IIsi using a mod tracker called 'Meditor', it was a bit different in that it had a more visual way of tracking, rather than the lines of code. The album is called 'Weinermart'. by me. (It's really quirky music), I made it when I was a kid and the full imagination was on show!

Gosh these protracker songs really bring back memories.

Stardust memories

AMIGA rocks ! So good to listen it !

ughhhh wish i couldve been at some of these parties

Jester / Volker Tripp once sent me a CDR album of other music he'd been working under the name Odd Job called Oddeology. Sadly, the disc no longer plays. Anyone know if it's available somewhere?

Stardust Memories is a nice piece of work.

cyberride slaps omfg

05. World of Commodore!!!

Jester was sick, that guy only needed 4 channels to produce hits. I ripped loads of samples from molecules revenge and basic instinct back in the day. And yes, of course I credited him in the sample text ;-)

This brings back so many memories, thank you. Can you do Fajser of Rage in a video?

Wow never seen this version of Protracker looking Nice Finally.....been out of the Amiga scene for a few years now...I need to get this at least in Emulation. Awesome looking!

This is awesome! My intro to Jester was "fast food". Still looking for it in a version I can access... I found a .mod but a recommended quick fix to re-save as a .mpg didn't work. darn!

Это так хорошо, я на небесах!

gooooood

Yay!

I love Track 2 - Elysium 👌

14:05 ÉPICO

ohhhhhh 17:23. pure gold!!

someone, or the original composers, should remake some of the amiga classics with full modern sound..

Amiga FOREVER ;)

Nazgul is simply awesome.

WOW

Looked like a strange new tracker but it was actually good old PT3.61 with some very disturbed color selection, lol :)

Cyberride roxx!

Slay

Elysium... I remember that one I've heard it before.

I like Amiga, why dont they make a smartphone with AmigaOS? (

Good old Cyberride in Extension by Pygmy projects

I know this song from 15:00... Bring back memories..

😎👍👍

This first song has the same sound as a song from The Shamen.

ProTracker on my Amiga 2000

Space debris, the best of all. No have way.

The Amiga. Ahhhh....wonderful memories. So far ahead of its time. It's too bad that the CEO had no idea what he had and didn't promote it like he should have. Atari ran some very misleading ads claiming that it was superior to the Amiga, but Commodore never counter-responded point for point on any of them as far as I know. The ST was superior in price and clock speed only - and yeah, it had a MIDI port. Big whoop. When the Atari Jaguar came out, Atari once again forgot how to tell the truth and claimed it was a "64 bit system". Yeah, no. You don't get to add up the bits of the various chips and declare that's what it is. Anyway, if Commodore had come out with the AGA chipset sooner, with an updated audio chip (more voices and 16/24 bit depth) and dropped the price a bit, we'd probably still be using them. Granted, they would have had to do what Apple did and change the processor to something else, since Motorola stopped developing the awesome 680x0 line of processors. Still lots of fun to pull out of the closet from time to time and relive those good old days. DCTV-Paint is still my all time favorite paint program, and DCTV itself is an amazing achievement - compressing 18 bits of video data into 3 or 4. On analog equipment, it looks incredible. Anyway, Commodore should have licensed this technology and incorporated it into the next generation of Amigas.

Give me a drink, bartender. I'm sure he'll never live that off

Holy shit, cyberride is The Messsenger.

is Jester still about? I make tracker music and have always had a problem with coming up with melodies, inspirational stuff

The MOD-guys always got the lead synths right... not like those.. retro,synth,etcwave guys who Always gets lost in fibbly kiddy tralala leads in all off their compressed kick 80's pastish's...

Isn't The Jester the guy who made the music for The Town With No Name? (the amiga version atleast)

That first one sounds like Boss Drum
