Polka Sonata
By Botrax (Formerly Dragonite) 1998

Made with Impulse Tracker
4 channels
1 sample from Gravis Ultrasound MIDI PATch files

This one is by mistake. I was converting a MIDI file of Moonlight Sonata to create Retaking Moonlight, and created a bad output with some wrong options and it sounded like an accordion piece. Unmodified with all the conversion errors. I just slapped an accordion sample in there and I was done.

More of a joke tune more than anything.
