Not as "frequent" as I used to be these days <sigh>

A few examples can be found online...

MICRO.MUSIC - Simon Williams
Experimental music performed on the Apple II computer. Approximately 30 
minutes of music is contained on a single 140 KB floppy disk. Each song is 
comprised of 24 KB of digital audio (16 samples) and uses 1 KB of the 
audio stream to generate the composition.

Geometry For Lovers - J.Warden / S.Williams
Mathematically-derived instrumental compositions performed on the Apple II 
computer

Serial Dub EP - Framebreaker
8-bit dub / techno / reggae played on a 1979 Apple II+ computer. 
Framebreaker uses primarily homebrewed software. This EP was conceived and 
realised as an entry into the January '07 Old Computer Challenge.

Night Driver EP - Nova Styrene
8-bit Apple II Robo-punk.

Binary Star - Nova Styrene
Experimental Apple II music.

"Serial Dub" is probably the closest to conventional music, whereas 
"MICRO.MUSIC" is the most pure example of the A2 built-in sound, being 
recorded directly with no effects or overdubs.
