64gan

Via Waxy, we are directed to a series of heuristic project by Linus Akesson to reproduce music written for organ (see previously) on a Commodore 64 with a keyboard input of a chromatic button accordion, inspired by the realisation that the sounds that pipe organ makes would be perceived as very much chiptunes without the acoustics a church. Applying some mechanical interventions, Akesson enabled reverb to make his digital instrument intone more like the original.
