  • Favorite Tracker Artist?

    From Foriest Jan Smith@VERT/NGMBBS to All on Fri May 1 06:19:04 2026
    The whole reason I got into finding BBS boards is my search for more tracker files from back in the Amiga's hey-day, and through that I've found quite a few interesting tracker compilations which have introduced me to some of my favorite artists (XTD, Uncle Tom, Nighthawk, & Dreamer to name a few). I'd love to hear if anyone has a tracker artist of the time they'd consider their favorite (if I had to pick one it would be Nighthawk)?

    I don't have an answer for your question, but I wanted to mention that I just recently found this Fasttracker II clone for Windows, Mac OS, and Linux:

    https://github.com/8bitbubsy/ft2-clone

    I had never used Fasttracker II originally, but I like its retro UI, and it's able to play .mod files (I only have a couple; I'd like to find more).

    "Blue Boxing" by Static is one of my all-time favorites.

    you are better off going on websites for that stuff.
    I was into it but i can't remember anything about it. people didnt
    really keep interest in it and i dont know anybody in bbsing who's really
    into it.
