Eight finished mixes from 2003 to 2005, plus fourteen FL Studio 4 sessions that only survived as project files, rebuilt note for note and played live by a synthesizer written in code.

Eight tracks exactly as they were rendered at the time: five FL Studio 4 WAV exports from March to May 2005, the two Delighted MP3s from July 2005, and JUKIM.wav, an 8-bit recording from August 2003. They play from the files, converted to MP3 for the web and matched in loudness. All of them were backed up from a TrekStor portable drive.
Fourteen more sessions survived only as .flp files. Every note, step, per-step pitch, tempo, arpeggiator setting and playlist block is read from them. A project doesn't store FL's samples or plugin sounds, so each channel is played by a small Web Audio voice chosen from its name: a pitch-drop kick for DNC_Kick, an acid line for TS404, a formant choir for CHR_Gospel_C3.
Press Play and the disk runs through all 22 tracks. Side A shows each mix's waveform and live signal. On side B the screen scrolls through the real piano roll, and you can mute channels in the rack to hear each part alone; channels muted in the original project start muted.
