Sequencer & tracker is a computer-music meta-genre centered on pattern-based composition using step sequencers and sample-based trackers (e.g., Ultimate Soundtracker, ProTracker, FastTracker II, Scream Tracker, Impulse Tracker, Renoise). It emphasizes vertical, grid-driven writing with short samples, limited channels, and hexadecimal effect commands. Compositions are stored as modules (.MOD, .S3M, .XM, .IT) that bundle patterns and samples, enabling small file sizes and platform portability. The aesthetic spans from 8/16‑bit microcomputer timbres to more modern, high‑fidelity sample and VST workflows. Historically tied to the demoscene and game audio, the style covers diverse substyles—electro, techno, jungle/breakbeat, ambient, chip—and is characterized by tight quantization, looped sample instruments, and clever tricks (e.g., arpeggio commands) to simulate harmony and motion under technical constraints.
