this house track I had on in the background has a sort of "skruhttuht" sound which EXACTLY duplicates the seek sound of a 3.5" floppy drive, and for several seconds I had a mystical, displaced-in-time experience wondering whether my computer somehow still had one of those

@aphyr Cue up some Ryoji Ikeda (for that lovely broken spinning disk hard drive sound) or The User's Symphony for Dot Matrix Printers next?

@aphyr I need a variety of 90s computer sounds incorporated into songs/beats. my quirks and I would be so soothed by it, flashing back to the good ol' days

@aphyr dude! If you have not heard the EP "Nerds Trying To Dance" by "Pedestrian Tactics" you should. Especially the track "Where'd My Head Go?" which downright weaponizes the Mac startup sound from the Quadra era. You can find it on YouTube. Enjoy!
