notes: 'Hey there. My name''s Daniel (also known as 8bitdanooct1) and I''d like to
  thank you for

  downloading the 8-bit version of the Sonic 3 & Knuckles soundtrack I spent countless
  hours

  creating and editing. It really means a lot to me that you are interested in my
  work.

  If you''re wondering why it does not sound as "8-bit" as say, a game like Megaman
  2, it is

  because I used the Konami VRC6 expansion chip when creating this album. What this
  does is

  allow for a few extra sound channels to be utilized, enabling me to use those sound
  channels

  for added harmony and fullness.

  In short, the expansion allowed me to create a better listening experience that
  can still be

  played on an actual NES with the right equipment.

  If you''d like to contact me about anything related to this project or for any other
  reason,

  you can reach me through a variety of methods:

  Message me on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/8bitdanooct1

  Send me an email: [email protected]

  Message me on AIM: danooct1

  Message me on MSN/Yahoo: [email protected]

  I encourage you to let me know what you thought! I appreciate and love hearing feedback
  and

  constructive criticism, and also like to chat with people.

  Thanks so very much for listening and downloading! It is with your support and encouragement

  that I undertook this project and actually went through with finishing all 58 songs.

  Thanks again,

  Daniel White (danooct1)
