i consider it a VGM related instrument - absolutely - i used to have one... they're awesome - in the same league as the Yamaha FB01 unit - you could technically modify your MT32 to have a non-volatile RAM chip so that turning it off would not erase your patches - altho i have never attempted this trick
so... is it chiptune? not really... but that doesnt mean you wont get street cred for using real VGM hardware
Contrary to what it says on 8static.com... I will NOT be appearing on Nov 12th 2011.
I will be playing in the future... but right now I am pre-occupied by my 40hr a week day job, and my side-work (soundtracks). I don't have enough time to practice my live stuff. I refuse to put on a sub-par performance... so I will be delaying my appearance until my work load lightens up. Sorry to all who were looking forward to this.
OK guys... bad news: I am actually not able to make it to 8static in Nov 2011. I will be playing in the future... but right now I am pre-occupied by my 40hr a week day job, and my side-work (soundtracks). I don't have enough time to practice my live stuff.
