[ 1 hour loop ] Palace Music by Miklós Rózsa @ YM3812 / OPL2 chip [Simplified Fornax Void Adaption]
«Back in the age of technology, I used to visit the lands they called Italy, to bathe in the sun. I miss those times. I haven't seen the sun in 2 millennia.»
🏛️
Simplified adaption of Miklós Rózsa's 'Palace Music' from his 1961 Soundtrack for Anthony Mann's El Cid. Played on a Yamaha YM3812 / OPL2 Sound Chip (Reckless Experimentation Audio YM3812 midi module), the same chip used in early AdLib and Sound Blaster sound cards.
