All of the color values were collected over a long period (years) of collecting that I did for personal reasons. It was only recently I decided to publicly post them. I am sorry I did not keep specific details.

I went to the https://www.twitch.tv/sgqfmfunk link and saw video of a video game being played and turned up the volume and heard Jazz, Fiddle, Flamenco Guitar and real music from acoustic instruments and no ripped video game music. What am I missing here?

I went to http://dmpsoft.s17.xrea.com/hoot/ and see that the hoot... - Sound Hardware Emulator program is documented all in Japanese. I am not interested in going to the effort of translating this page.

I went to the other links from the pastebin page and find this stuff a little too difficult to get into right now. I am not interested in downloading software and content to try this stuff out. I may not be interested, but possibly another reader will see your comment and dive into it.

Thanks for you comment and please enjoy what I posted on my page!

Have a look at the following link to learn about the demoscene

Demoscene https://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Demoscene

The music devoid of humans :-) is meant to sound that way. The history of the demoscene music goes back to the 80s and 90s on microcomputers with limited memory and other capabilities. These tunes are created in chiptunes and module files that are surprisingly small size for the amount of music they produce. See the following two links for more info.

Chiptune https://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiptune

Module file https://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Module_file

No, not at all. I hope I did not sound like I was upset. I was just trying to convey that it may seem easy when you see the answer, but it was a bit tricky to find the answer.

If it is that easy, why is it that this information did not exist on the net until now? I am someone who had the interest and took time to put this together in a nice presentation.
