There was also a long-running chipmusic collection on the Amiga during the nineties called "fish'n'chips".

Funny how everyone seems eager to discuss the name, but so far only one post regarding the music itself... smile

Because that is people's first impressions. I wouldn't buy an action film called 'Big Explosions & Guns' that had a big explosion on the front and a gun. With pictures of Arnie on the back and various references to other action movies. It feels cheap, to me.

Although it's not what I'm calling myself, so I don't see a conflict at all.

I use the WAV channel for most of my kicks, (I like WAV kicks better than Pulse kicks) but other than that, I've mostly used it for extra leads, over my pulse leads. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what every option on the WAV channel does. wink

And transitions have never been my strongest point. tongue

As for the music itself, this is a good start, I hope you keep working on this and learn more and more and more (learning more is the most fun thing about chip music if you ask me ;D )

The title track is my favorite; especially the 2:20 mark or so, when things really pick up. A lot of fun! Overall I think you should be less scared of the WAV channel, and try to use it to its fullest potential. Also, work on transitions; the transitions throughout "Release the Glitch" seem especially rough.

Still, like I said, a good start. Best of luck moving forward, dude!

I came up with it with no outside influence while I was in New Zealand. And this is the first thing I've ever released, so be nice. sad

I was gonna release this like a month ago, but I was waiting on my GFX friend to do the cover art, but he's been busy, so I just asked my girlfriend to throw me something together. I'll have better cover art when I release an album. smile
