sure they are funny but if the kid aint killed himself none of yall would have even cared bout him, n if he turned up on this site n posted his tunes yall would rip the shit out of him

bless his soul

he was quite big/known/popular "in life" too, like cobain/hendrix/nordboe - his fame is not totally posthumous

if he turned up on this site n posted his tunes no one would notice because the music side of this website is totally dead...

I don't give the tiniest fuck that the kid is dead! I don't "care" about him, or anybody else whose music I listen to. The music is different, and recording and releasing it is both ballsy and sincere, and I "care" about that. Why should enjoying something be fueled by emotions toward the artist, and whether or not they are in a box?

edit: And if he showed up here I would encourage him to release more and to write his own music.

still rememebr 8bc tryng to get that girl kicked out of university over a youtube video lol. that could have ruined someones life too. its not worth it for chiptunes...

I remember this, there are very few things on 8bc that people talk about that I can honestly say I remember. I'm not saying that failing her entire course was what she deserved, but she did steal someone else's music, and act as though she composed it. If you take a course about composing music, then it's really not fair of you to ride off of someone else's success

He seemed a really sincere and honest performer, and his story is a bit sad to me, especially when I heard he was slightly cyber bullied by the early 2000s version of the chiptune pitchfork brigade.

by the way if you dig the whole chip as found folk resource thingy, check out monotrona:
