To see this animating, thumping lights along with the noise display going all squiggly, would be a nice avatar. I might consider doing something similar myself.....
@Arfff: I also find parallels between trackers and pixel art. Both give you immense control over every detail and both are thoroughly enjoyable. What more could one want? :D Nopes, I don't have any choons online yet, and I only made perhaps half a dozen in Renoise so far. I got a bit rusty over the years wasted on Reason and similar crap and so I have yet to really find my thing again. Maybe we can swap some songs via email or something, feel free to PM me. I was recently surprised to find some of my old protracker modules at http://amp.dascene.net/detail.php?detail=modules&view=3479 , but I can't guarantee the quality of the selection :P I recommend Milkytracker for listening those (www.milkytracker.net/)
:D fasttracker, madtracker, modplug-tracker, renoise... you name it. Everyone I was making music with since back in those days eventually changed to Pro Tools, Live, Cubase. But I can't seem to give up Renoise. I guess it must be the same nostalgia that fuels the interest for pixel-art. Everytime I quit the application I'm still expecting to get that groovy MS-DOS C:\> on screen!
oh I don' t know renoise, can be a decouverte maid grace to you. At the time of trackers I used "Fastracker 2" and it is true that to return on this kind of interface would change me.

I played this with the Cogaula program, and I thought it sounded awesome.
So good sounds, good art~
