[LAU] An oldie revisited

I sort of found an old track of indeterminate age, and thought I'd like to try a remix, so looked for the project folder. It wasn't there! That was a bit of a shock, as I never delete these, so how it came to be missing is a mystery. It would have been possible to keep listening to the original audio to (slowly) piece it together, but that was more tedious than I fancied. At this point I didn't know just how old it was - the audio had a file date in 2010, but I suspected it was older. Eventually I remembered I had a compressed archive of my very early pre-linux work, and there it was! Well, it is a not quite kosher MIDI file. This has the last modified date in 1994, so indeed older than I though. Importing it into Rosegarden produced a lot of strange bits of tracks separated from the actual notes, and no sign of track names, but it was enough to get started. That was about a month ago. I now have the entire recording, expanded and reproduced with Yoshimi (the original would have been a mix of Sound Canvas and SY22). So here it is. Personally I find it quite difficult to keep still while it's playing :) https://soundcloud.com/soft-sounds/skipping-rope -- Will J Godfrey {apparently now an 'elderly'} https://willgodfrey.bandcamp.com/ http://yoshimi.github.io Say you have a poem and I have a tune. Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
