This is the YouTube link to the 8th Syntherizer Contest: https://youtu.be/1sgibLoz9cA?si=eIpGfzgrOZU4EAkw
In the late 70s to part of the 80s, Roland (synthesizer manufacturer)
had annual synthesizer music contests where people around the world
could submit songs they recorded with their synthesizers, and Roland
would choose & award winners. Roland would then sell tapes of the
winners' songs. My dad bought the 8th synthesizer contest tape
(1984), and he eventually gave the tape to me.
When I was much younger (a child), I was careless and lost the
cassette sleeve, so I lost the information about the winners' names
and the names of the songs (and I didn't particularly treat the
cassette very well either, for whatever reason). Several years ago,
I bought a USB cassette player and recorded the songs digitally on my computer (I've saved them to FLAC format, and have also converted
them to MP3). I put it on YouTube, stating that I'm missing the
original information. I've since found many of the song names,
thanks in part to a kind user who commented with a tip just last
week, though there are still a couple I don't know, and a couple I'm
unsure of.

I think that's my upload to archive.org (though I don't remember
adding the .ogg files or .png files - I wonder if those were added
later).

Yes, that's my YouTube video, which I shared in my original post
about this..?
