I just finished playing through Snatchers on the Sega CD and Gunstar Heros for the first time so the Sega genesis has been on my mind. As I was skimming through random games on my Everdrive I ended up wanting to try to write something for an imagined Sega Genesis game.

The concept was a cutscene where the player witnesses an experiment that has gone wrong and is launched into a post-apocalyptic plot with a desolate landscape and persons with bad intentions emerge. So basically 2020

Mixing is off and I would like to extend this but I don't have enough time for this week.I also discovered my new wifi router is emitting a strong enough signal that my older consoles' RF shielding can't block out the interference. You can hear this periodic ticking sound in quieter sections. For the pauses, I had to fade out the noise in the post-recording parts.

Gear Used:
Sega Genesis Model 2 VA3 (different unit from last time)
Ableton (hardware recording, Drum samples generation, and basic mastering)
Mega Everdrive Pro (flashcart for hardware playback)
DefleMask (music tracker)
