I dunno what is going on with this track, but maybe you can figure it out! Download weird 65kb Sytrus project here!

Funky as heck. Blamtrons 1 through 94 would be proud.

It's the bass drum, there needs more of it. Maybe less claps in favor of cowbell?

Too many blamtrons!

good stuff...sounds wet, in a good way....if that makes any sense

This track's got some groove. I like it a lot, and the sparkling at 1:27 is my jam.

What's going on is damn fine work.

love the trancey synth pad gating! and the gurgley bass feels like it's coming right for me

What is going on is CLAP!

This track makes me move. Excellent!

Funky fresh and groovy. Glad you made it this week!

Gotta catch 'em all!

Ive never scrolled through so many gifs in my entire life. I love it! Haha. I only have one question for you. How are we ever supposed to get up if we just keep getting down??? The funk is alive in this one.

slaps smile funky nasty

Ohhh okay, I think I get it.  Love that bass dude.

The amount of funk in this is unreal.

Funky baaaaassss with that cool gated synth.  Me likey!   Oooh and spaced out mario-arps.  Those "woooooah" bass notes are my favs.  On a slightly different note, I always marvel at the tiny file size used to make these gems.  Just curious do you know what your largest file ever is?  *clap*

These Sytrus tracks are super small since they don't use any samples (and are zipped), so it's essentially a few synth patches, a few fx patches, and note data which is really small comparatively. I also have been trying to use just vector based automation, instead of recording them since those are smaller. Sytrus allows you to use chip files, but I don't since they can be big compared to the rest of the file. FL files used to be even smaller, but fl has changed their file structure over the years, so now even an empty file is 113kb (12kb zipped). I didn't realize until I checked the file sizes (smallest was one from the 90s at 3kb unzipped). The largest .flp: Pop!

This and the other large ones are big since I probably have a lot of vocals in Newtone, which I'm guessing is saving those files internally. But the largest songs are probably the ones I do for work, that are dependent on a ton of external instrument libraries, which can easily be many gigs each. I also usually cram them with many different variations/stingers and such. I literally have thousands of these due to countless revisions, so there is no realistic way for me to calculate their true size!
