SINCE 2014
A label for releasing my music and occasional collaborations. Loosely derived from my nickname, 637man. Can be also explained as Múza*637. j-61m types really horibly. Scroll down to see the newest releases. You may skip the History section below, it's privoded for the case if you are bored.

I've been attempting to make music ever since kindergarten as I knew about notes. These got deprecated as I discovered music trackers. My 1st composition dates back to 2003 I guess, and it's something lame about Titanic. Of around-2006 songs there's one about kissing lesbians (I was that much perverted then, apparently) and about sending a letter (probably a parody on chain mail). Some raps are there too as well as impossible piano etudes, now called black score or black MIDI. It exhibits some 1024th or shorter notes. Unfortunately I have nothing to prove all this stuff, as everything until about 2008 was hidden or trashed by mom probably while I was on some camp. Really thanks -.- This happened to some comics and drawings, too. The earliest example from 2006 saved from trashing is from my 2nd grade notebook and hanged on my bulletin board. Made an experiment with it, it sucked so badly. And that's why I don't listen to modern classical music. Instead of trying out some random African ethnical scales, they put random equally tempered notes together hoping it won't sounds bad.
One spring morning of 2008 I carried a cellphone charger to school because I forgot to charge it. School started from 9 o'clock that day, but I couldn't set off a bit later from home because the bus or metro stations were too damn far and with my parents I had the benefit to be driven and set off straight at the entrance. There's a morning nursery service (Ranní družina in Czech) or what it is called for these cases. There's been a free socket in the hall, so I plugged my K320i (or was it K310i?) to it. Browsed through menus, and found MusicDJ. Made a few songs with it and played them to my parents afternoon. Yes, it sounded all the same. Later these songs were for that reason deleted, since there was only 16 MB of memory and no memory card slot in the phone. However, after I got a new phone in 2009, W890i with a memory card slot, I decided to experiment more with the Music DJ and made 5 songs I keep until now. Although not a smartphone, the W890i exhibits certain characteristic features not found even in iPhone 8, namely the bare-hand-replaceable battery, memory card slot, installing unsigned applications without jailbreak, and scanning for multimedia files, therefore not needing any iTunes or what. It still has a proprietary connector and no 3.5-mm jack, but the charger has another one on it so the headphone adapter (comes with it) can be plugged in simultaneously. Really makes me wonder why there are so many people stupid enough to buy iPhone (unless already deep in the walled ecosystem) or vote for authoritarian oligarch parties.
Making music from pre-defined parts has become unsatisfactory for me and I looked into some MIDI software. Of course pirating, I was just playing. As I wasn't able to read notes in realtime in the bass clef, where were most of the desired notes, I moved quite quickly to pianoroll-based editing in FL Studio in 2012 and abandoned the MIDI sequencers working with notation. I only edited a Beethoven's For Elise a little bit in Noteworthy Composer. Though I might return to MIDIs, this time black. FL has a wonderfull pianoroll. I made my 1st module with OpenMPT as early as 2011, Fart Mix. Served for some laughs. Still have it. In winter 2012, I made my 1st real electronic song in FL Studio, The Laboratory of Hell. Sort of intro to all my songs. And I heard it was good. I wanted to make another song some time later.
One day, while building a tower (not really a tower) in Minecraft to just increased height limit (version 1.2), I fell from a high place and couldn't find all my inventory before it despawned. So I was upset and sad and launched into FL to make some music. I didn't play Minecraft for a whole week. The world has been ruined since then by Mincecraft Loops Redstone Beat Circuit, falling chicken pillars from a dispenser on a bedrock platform and a lava bucket village facelift. Back to the music, I made my 2nd song, Rythmic Horror, something like Trance. I wasn't very familiar with the pianoroll at that time.
Following this, Techno Joy Ode was made after discovering how clipping sounds when applied to Rythmic Horror. It's a remix of Beethoven's Ode to Joy and is my loudest song so far, because it has very unaware mastering. Only Running Away from the Doom could compete with it. Similarly 1st real song was made in OpenMPT, The Clipping Hell. It used samples from FL Studio made +60 db. Didn't contain a real melody, only something like organ solo. Later rather experiments followed. More listenable and consistent songs started to be finished after Citric, the longest song of me ever to be made. It was the end of 2012. An attempt for a legal background music to a never made YouTube video was made in OpenMPT in a period between 2012 and 2014, I don't know when I stated it because I didn't write it in the song message. During Spring and Summer 2013, the oldest Soredemo songs were made. In Fall 2013, I made the O Tannenbaum cover, which I enjoy listening until now and it's pattern had ended it my school thesis formal practice on "Informatics in Music", as it was made during procrastination.
In 2014, I noticed reduced FL Studio usage, as I focused on OpenMPT instead. In April I made my 2 now classics, Haru no Niwa (Spring Garden) and Safari Sampler. They use sonata form. Later, my numerous attempts at making Metal came to 1st original Metal song being finished, All Ur Soul R Belong 2 Us. It didn't happen in FL Studio as it's not originally designed for this sort of things. As Iveta Bartošová AKA Jamboolka got herself ran over by a train on 29.0*4.20*14, I managed to get some views and plays by making a Hej, pane diskžokej parody lyrics and cover version. Works on Soredemo tracklist have been started as I got into something in discussion in the Music class, leading into my songs being reportedly played at Omská Summer Academy in the club Pilot on 29.06.2014. This is to be considered the release date, although individual songs were released way earlier as MP3 or modules. In summer, I made accounts on Soundcloud, Bandcamp and Modarchive to spread my music (if you call it so) a little more. No song was actually finished during that, except a Czechoslovak anthem cover to attract some audience trough YouTube and Soundcloud. Ideas are probably based on the input of data for exams, that's probably why I couldn't get anything finished during the summer holidays.
After I came from Ireland the computer seemed to ultimately refuse Windows 7 Ultimate, as not even the install DVD booted. That means I've lost the ability to play NFS Rivals (filler for waiting until GTA5 on PC), AC4 (I once ragequit from a stealth mission and wanted to see Miami Beach some time later) and to record with OBS because it relies on DirectX 10 and XP (chosen because Vista and 8 suck and 10 was to come in Autumn 2015) can have only fake Direct 10. Also all my work in FL requires my external hard drive with samples to be mounted at E:, but it somehow moved to G: so I had to remap it, but I was lazy. Because of this, I opened OpenMPT instead and made Endsieghoffnungsmarsch (this 42-channel thing took almost 2 months) and Summertime Garden. During this time, 1st 8-core Core i7 came out and I had finally an image of a finally mine computer to build. It would cost about $2000. During saving attempts, I realized I can't get a night summertime job because some dumbasses made a law that people under 18 shall not work at night. Then I lost about $500 somewhere on that school trip to Ireland and my parents drowned $1000 in dancing classes (Taneční in Czech). Really weird tradition we have in Czechoslovakia. I didn't want to go on something aerobic-esque in smart clothes on Sunday afternoons, I wanted a new computer. I had to wait 2 years for my 18th birthday in 2016, which was just before the (RY)ZEN hype began. Between that, I got progressively more annoyed by the adware that decided to still support Windows XP, yet still I enjoyed things that just won't work with WDDM, such as recording a scrolled 4K desktop or full-screen command line.
During Christmas 2014 I made a quick Silent Night remix and released an unreleased Jingle Bells remix, which I made according to the Czech version melody and never got to make it after the English one. The next month I finally finished Angst der Eilenden Zwerge, which I started before Haru no Niwa in February 2014. In March 2015, remixes of 2 patriotic songs were made, When Johnny Comes Marching Home and Ukraine Still not Died out (Šče nevmrela Ukraina). I got an USB claviature (keyboard means both QWERTY and piano, in Czechia we use this) for my birthday, so I wasted a lot of time playing with FL and OpenMPT not doing anything useful. It came with a code for Ableton of some sort, but I don't use that. I'm a tracker and pianoroll guy. 1st song in 64 kB was a somewhat dimorphic remix of Alle Jahre Wieder. The cubic-interpolated version seems more popular, it sounds closer to hip-hop, but still has been called a chiptune. Last song for a long time was a psytrance experiment got more or less right at 3rd attempt, made over the course of 5 months from Fall 2015 to Winter 2016, in which I wrote my longest song message.
In 2017 I picked up my samplepack module of a notorious interview with Miloš Zeman (Hovory z Lán), in which he removed the necessity to wordmix come curse words, and made a Soundclown with it, entirely in OpenMPT. Then again nothing until after the school-leaving exam that Germans call Abitur, Austrians Matur, Poles Matura, we Maturita, and English have GCSE and A-levels instead. On 4th ramadan the Super Tangent Sample Pack has been released, dedicated to all the audio engineers and matematicians, after staying awake until dawn. All the resources come from 2013, as timestamped. Some time in June 2017 (still during Ramadan) I listened to 8 hours of Goa Trance while checking out 2b2t.org on some MCLeaks alts, picked up a never to be completed .flp, played with delay effect, made an awesome riff, and with my Covfefe Lake-proof i7-5820K I broke free from the constraints of even the stock samples (100% portable .flp available), and made a newschool Goa track using a method similar to Forgotten Hapiness. Later I remembered my attempt at a genuine soundclown from 2015 (PanemHungerWallaWallaStyle) and uploaded it after finding it hilarious after all this time. Then I arranged Bad Apple!! for ST-01 and planned to start using a 2nd Youtube channel (of the same name) for such shitposts, but there'll probably go some other kind of videos instead, some Minecraft world tours, "hate speeches", samplepack presentations, or programming stuff. Never mind, ContentID is shitty enough to be bypassed by random edits each few seconds. Did I say somewhere it encourages creativity?
Finally in September 2017, I got a new and a 1st actual notebook for my college assignments and stuff. It's specs are (supposed to be) in a separate page. Reportedly it has a Dual Digital Mic, so I sampled a guitar and with the help of gm.dls sequenced a pattern in a brand new OMPT 1.27. Don't know if it ever will make it into a full song. My old netbook will serve me for toilet visits and Windows XP nostalgia. There is a project called One-Core API, which provides compatibility for NT6 like KernelEx did for Win2000. But there's no use to running DX10 games on a slow DX9 GPU parody. I hope it will still work when ReactOS reaches general usability.
2018 was boring. Mostly spent procrastinating a Java assignment I knew I could never complete with only 3 months Java experience, writing a Julia fractal explorer for another assingment instead, lurking Minecraft 1.13 hype train, mining CryptoTab (fuck nVidia for killing Kepler), reviving the HungerBattleRoyaleDayZH1Z1Games hype by watching Minecrafters forego to PUBG, sorting my RIAA communism collection, attempting to pass another semester, and slowly migrating to Linux as Windows 10 have too many regressions.
And so we came into the present time, the future is yet to happen. Meanwhile I'm attempting to take care of this forgotten blog.

Concerning the music modules and everything in demoscene, I don't know whether certain stuff counts as software or a work of art, since it's not a game (court ruled that games are art not to be censored). Software is licensed only, art is sold. Nevertheless I'll go with art to match the other music, therefore use Creative Commons instead of GNU.
Original Content: CC BY-NC or equivalent
Exceptions to NC are reusing in the same company service portfolio where the song was uploaded already. Examples include monetization on derivative content (shitpost, soundtrack, pattern visualization, promotion, etc.), I have AdBlock anyway so I don't see them ads. SA is omitted since it may affect the whole borrowing work (such as a game using the music), but please allow others to use my stuff separately. That is, no encryption, DRM, downmixing with something, or embedding in non-widespread proprietary formats opened only by proprietary programs. This could fall under ND, but I'm not a bitch not to allow others to remix my work or build upon it.
Remixes: CC BY or equivalent or inherited
Attribution is conditional when anyone asks about the song or remix name. You are obliged to answer if you hadn't put it in the description or the derivative work already. If you added also a download link, that would be great. When having used samples, lyrics or melody from commercial songs, NC is inherent because of Fair Use, but that is to be enforced by the original authors (not greedy administrating corporations). Sequences of drums and baselines aren't protected by copyright laws written by whites.
You are encouraged to show people the benefits of using the music module formats instead of renders, such as comparing the size of provided Kilobyte Chillout module and its FLAC or MP3 render. Is seems like many people don't know what I mean when I talk about this stuff, which I got into just by searching for Windows sounds remixes and digging in game files, finding it back in how YTPMVs are created. I was initially amazed by the compression ratio, about which people on a fiber network having 4 TB HDDs in RAID won't care. Try those with ADSL and slower, they have problems streaming 1080p60 without underruns and awful upload speeds. That's why I can't be an active Youtuber (half a day of uninterrupted uploading per a rendered 1080p video (up to 2 days when lossless)) until I graduate and get a job to pay my family that fiber.
For commercial licenses contact me at the business e-mail on the other side of this page. You can get them for free if you send or give me the resulting product(s) with all DLCs. This is advantageous when it'll be overpriced for the end customers. The embedding restrictions from above still apply (unless you give me more than double or some real estate), I must be able to get my content back from the game easily, and so the less knowledgeable other users should.

2014 - それでも (Soredemo)
The 1st so-called album which I didn't call a mixtape, comprises of what is to be considered embryos for following releases: Glooms (pink color came to my mind, dunno why), Have a Seizure, Excrementarium, and public class getman.audio.music.!original. Or maybe not and all stuff after that will go in 1 single album. The mastering sucks, but who cares when there are things like Replay Gain? In fact, there isn't any in the last 8 tracks. The cover art was made in Paint.NET with quite arbitrary plugins. The 2 apparent ones were also used for backgroung of this blog.
Tracklist:
01. Above the Time Axis 3:35
02. Smůlu, nemoc, válku 3. (Štestí, zdraví RMX) 2:48
03. Running Away from Doom 6:31
04. Saved by Jesus (Church Metal Shit) 3:32
05. (Into the) Electronic Garden (of Rendering Errors (which Don't Sound Bad at All)) 7:38
06. Forgotten Happiness 2:31
07. Oriental Shit 2:00
08. Kočka leze dírou (RMX) 1:20
09. Na tý louce zelený (RMX) 4:14
10. Kilobyte Chillout (Cubic Interpolation) 3:00
11. Haru no Niwa (Spring Garden) 4:27
12. Oriental Safari Sampler 6:35
13. Hej, pane (Hej, pane diskžokej RMX) 3:37
14. O, Tannenbaum (RMX) 3:04
15. All Your Soul Are Belong to Us 6:35
16. Orchestral Pub Concerto 4:11
17. Kilobyte Chillout (No Interpolation) 3:00
Total time: 68:45 (I will trust Windows this time.)
Bonus: Omamná psychotronní látka (Dazing Psychotronic Substance) - originally it wasn't to be put there becuase it was indended to be converted into MIDI or A2M and played on OPL3 on SB16, but since it seems to be really rocking as it is (most downloads at Modarchive), it's there as a bonus. 68:45 + 5:36 = 74:21

Free, and don't even attempt to pay because I have not yet a PayPal account. Just enter 0 and send me some Bitcoins instead. See the Bitcoin address top right in the Getmania Provinces box, where is also link to Modarchive page with all the modules from the 2nd half and much more. Now paying by card or cash may be subject to registration at the Ministry of Finance, which is too messy to set up, and also specially targetted at eliminating smaller businesses. As an anarcho-mutualist, I can't partake in this spying oppresive bullshit. So fucking use Bitcoins which has its own transaction register AKA blockchain and screw the vain state.
2012 - Citric
Single long (over 33 minutes) track. Some commercially released albums are shorter. Dubbed "0th Electronic Symphony" for a reason. Started as playing with all the presets of FL Studio plugin Sytrus, and a rule to add or remove something only in steps of 4 bars. In the end this track's sole purpose to avoid switching tracks and lengthen the playlist while I played Minecraft. I consider this track a milestone between my 1st attempts and the real music. All Soredemo tracks were made after completion of this one.
Download:
https://muzax637.bandcamp.com/track/citric
I don't expect anyone to pay for this. It's only a crap that wouldn't fit on upcoming Just Beginnings Being Beginnings, which will be only on Soundcloud and Drive as I don't have the samples or soundfonts used anymore to re-export as lossless required by Bandcamp. Fixing it would make a whole different album, like Beginnings Revisited.
2016 - Givin' Spirit to a Bad Blue Boat
See the MS Paint skills and the beta (final is monopolized) font for Czech 1st-grade writing classes? This one is a 14-minute experimental Psytrance, or rather experiment at Psytrance. Therefore it qualifies as an EP, very popular in these days of digital distribution. It can also serve as a filtering and sampling tutorial if you download the source .IT module. The interesting thing is that notes semitone apart play at the same time and it's not dissonant, which means the lower is sharped or the higher is flattened.
Download:
https://muzax637.bandcamp.com/track/givin-spirit-to-a-bad-blue-boat
http://modarchive.org/module.php?178147
On Bandcamp just enter 0 and don't bother. I'm too concerned about my bank account getting hacked if I put it on display or submit it to a foreign company. Besides I have all in Czech Crowns and you'd send me probably Dollars or Euros, conversions of which could be commissioned or disadvantageous. Get the song for free and send me Bitcoins instead.
