### Small NSF(1.2KB) demo

It's not as small as the 700+byte NSF in FCP2014 cover, or the 900+byte NSF in FCP2015 original though, the reason is that the structure of the track itself is slightly more complex than the two NSFs mentioned above. Really, NSF with very small size isn't too hard, and I haven't tried too hard to compress data(it was made in like two days' time). What actually is hard, though, is to get a high rank in Famicompo Pico with a small NSF.
It isn't the multichip version with FDS vocals of course...
Note: works on NSFPlay

VRC6 PWM is GAY because it has colours of the rainbow in the NSFPlay keyboard visualizer.

Sounds good.
I assume an even smaller file size is possible by using hardware envelopes exclusively? (That'd probably sound bad, of course, but.)

The original "LukaLukaNightFever" song was larger in file size compared to this .nsf attachment obviously. I'm happy about compression.

What makes you think this is an acceptable thing to do?

I actually don't know what's is this special about...
It just about the file size?

FT generated NSFs (tested with 0cc) are at least 6KiB in size and they grow much larger as more data are inserted, so people were amazed to see NSF files that are even smaller than 1KiB.
The fact is though, simply creating a track that is as small as 1KiB isn't something too difficult. The SMB music engine is only 3.3KiB large, but it handles all tracks and sound effects.
What I'm trying to say here is that, if one creates a track with the mentality of making it small instead of making it good, he should have just used the track as a tech demo instead of a Famicompo entry.
