Since we appear to have taken poor modarchive offline, here's my vote for the greatest MOD of all time via an archive.org link :

Why not link the better final version? https://web.archive.org/web/20210615125241/https://modarchiv...

You might also enjoy the country version, done by the original artist: https://m.soundcloud.com/jugi/onward-giddy-up-by-yzi

Thanks, that one is a blast!

That is indeed a very good MOD. Allthough, its not a classic 4 channel MOD. This extended MOD has a crazy amount of channels. It belongs to this PC demo by Complex:

There's an online player at https://www.wothke.ch/webxmp/ if the Wayback machine won't play the XM you download there.

Way back when I was learning HTML, it was really exciting to play S3M/XM files from embedded ModPlugin: https://openmpt.org/legacy_software

Got startled by loud music. I think your notification should mention that after clicking music will start immediately and headphone users should be aware. Good tunes, nonetheless.

To be fair - if someone says "here's an online player" - What are you really expecting?

That's a good track, but I'm afraid it doesn't hold a candle to the classic Online Pizza:

This MOD has been stuck in my head for nearly 20 years

Interesting.

Musically, we Europeans preferred speed-up Trance music at high BPM.

Americans already live as in a hurry, so they prefer slower tunes such as Drum&Bass.

You know that linking to this is effectively handing someone a VHS with the Ring curse, right?

Yeah, and by The Ring's rules, I'm finally free! Mwahahahaha!

In addition, if people are looking to listen to/download large amounts of tracks, consider checking out the torrents instead.

I didn't know modarchive is down. I used to have many of my songs there. Is there any alternative with the same database?

I think it's just temporarily down due to the load from this post.
