about

It's 2021, and quite a few albums have released on Floppy Disk at this point. Some use modern audio compression codecs, some simply include a link to a webpage with the music...some just don't include anything and use the disk as a piece of art.

This floppy disk isn't a 'copy' or 'edition' of the album. This is the canonical version of the album. The digital copies & etc are only provided for listener convenience. The MIDI files contained within were composed on the SC-55mkII, but sound very interesting (and sometimes delightfully bad) on other GM Compatible devices. OPL3 playback is a personal favorite of mine. I encourage you to experiment with them.

Echoes on Stone Walls is the soundtrack to a DOS game that doesn't exist. I made it with this in mind, and I think as you listen you will hear both the heroes and villains going through their expected trials, wins, and defeats. It is a journey through both time, and idea, and I hope that it breaks free of your speakers to capture your imagination.

I am extremely pleased that you will be taking time to explore this place that I have created. I hope that you love it.
