Buzz is a different kind of a beast. There's a
yahoo mailing list called
something like exoperimental-music-with-buzz where people discuss different
things and upload their examples to the list's fileserver. You can learn
from that, too.
The Buzz-Buzz Yahoo group is a great resource for would-be Buzz users, as well
as people who like tracker music in general. However, it's like a point of
pride to not use samples in your Buzz tune, using instead the various Buzz
synthesis modules to generate your sounds, so the culture is a little
different than the tracker world at large.
Someone was working on a Buzz clone for Linux called GNU Octa-something, can't
remember it right now nor can I find it, but it stalled a year and a half ago
and I haven't heard anything about it since.
What might be really cool would be a Wine/Jack applet that just wrapped Buzz
modules ;) I seem to remember a similar wrapper for VST effects but don't
know what became of it.
