Hello, thanks for stopping by.

I go by MetallicOrwell, and I currently make chiptunes--that is, I use the Furnace tracker to make sequences that will play on real hardware. They are not MIDIs played on a SoundFont or anything of the sort: this is the real deal. It should go without saying none of it is AI-generated, either. My main focus is the almighty Sega Mega Drive / Genesis, though sometimes I will put it in the cuck chair while I play around with other systems, primarily the Super Nintendo, Master System, Sound Blaster (OPL3), PC-98 (OPNA) and even oddball choices like the Ensoniq ES5506. Regardless, I'm an FM guy first and foremost.

I started writing descriptions to explain the process by which I create my pieces, and since I am a writer at heart, they became more and more elaborate and detailed, until eventually I decided to start hosting them here. There isn't much here yet, but these old-school webpages are always under construction, now aren't they?

Incidentally, if you want to talk to me, you can of course leave a comment on one of my YouTube videos, but you can also find me over at the Furnace Discord server, and I'd say that's the best way to get in touch with me.

So, without further ado: here is my writing.
