      Apparently what he did for Plok was he used sound effect channels as well to play repeating segments, that's where all the triplets came in from. He like half-cheated by using non-music hardware. If you didn't know that was even possible then it would definitely sound like it's using way more channels than the SNES had. That's probably why Nintendo thought he was using a modified SNES.

    There were a few games where the composers did a good number on it. Follin just took his blowtorch and fking BURNED his tracks onto it.
    Plok was showcased to Miyamoto and he thought the music was that good, he looked around the room for other speakers.
    Also Plok once started as a short comic resolving around a mage who grew tired of his work and made himself a red-hooded familliar to help him: Plok was born

      The PLOK lore is legitimately so confusing.
      Like he's supposed to be familiar made by a magician out of a magic suit.
      But then there's the question of grandpappy PLOK.
      Was that the original suit do the suits somehow reproduce itself.
      Is the fact of the magician is literally named Penkino have to do anything with the Penkino bosses in game.
      And don't even get me started on the comics with the endgame implication that all the fleas were lured to acrylic by Grandpappy for whatever reason.
      And then there's the fact that PLOK removes his glove and shows a human hand underneath.
      So did Penkino literally create a human familiar.
      So many questions.

    The best VG composer the industry ever had. The boss theme can only be compared to giants like Dancing Mad and Giygas' battle theme.
    Also, this guy is the arranger of Rock N Roll Racing. He's the reason why the music of that game sounds that good. Were it was given to anybody else, it'll sound worse. He's also one of the guy that inspires David Wise and Jake Kaufman on making music.
    There are so many great composers from the C64 eras. It's such a massive shame that most of them are no longer working in the industry or are just given works on game few people played.

I certainly couldn't comprehend how insanely ahead of the time it was, but my GOD did it do exactly what it was designed for and weirdly enough it fits the game in a sense of "opposites attract each other". It's so out of the box that it creates it's own new box in where it fits perfectly. Granted nostalgia is speaking a lot here, but thinking back, this is exactly how it blew my mind as a kid.
