   Samples are out?

   When around 1985 the first SID tunes using samples came out everybody was   
   blown away, including me. But I guess when the Commodore 64 reached the   
   end in the mid 90s I thought since the SID was not made for playing   
   samples that I prefer tunes made without.   
      
   Now checking new SID tunes, like randomly picked Miss C64 from 2013 and   
   many (all so far) other "new" tunes after about 2000 (probably earlier?)   
   do not use samples. At least that it's what these tunes sound to me.   
      
   Came the SID composer back to the roots already in the late 90s?

   you call your boss "buddy", on a regular basis.
