Mathieu entered my music studio, saying:

If we want to get into THAT, I really STARTED on the TI-99/4A.  I never
did get the music cartridge I always wanted, but I learned how to 
program that 3-voice music chip, and one voice white noise, pretty good.
I wouldn't actually mind getting into programming again, or better yet-
just start writing music for computer games...  I guess the place to start 
is some of the local shareware products being made here in Calgary.
(A real promising one is in the works this summer I'm already signed up 
for.)  Even if the game is a bomb, if people liked the music, it's 
publicity for me, and could get on elsewhere.
Great chatting with ya!  :)
