You know, because it's 2 .savs for every song and you need 2 gameboys to play them. I've been getting the .savs organized for the release anyway. wink

Update: working title is now::: of Atoms and Stardust

Uhhhhh I guess you could spam facebook with your tunes, maybe have a release party and invite all your friends and play your tunes and hand out little cards with links to your bandcamp or maybe even a download code

I was wondering why your stuff was kicking my head in so hard. (^.^)b
I spent four minutes trying to figure out how all these sounds were coming out of 4 channels.

If you copy+pasted your photograph into an image with the NES color palette using indexed-colors, it would have the correct bit-depth.

But. I have nothing to contribute to the OP.

Pulse kicks can get there, but I'm personally more of a triangle wav kick guy! Easier to find in the EQ, and I think they have more character smile

You've got the melodic part down pat though!

Lately I've been using sampled kicks in the wav. I used to use more pu kicks though. I'll bring them out with some eq.  wink

One thing I noticed is that i feel like your music could use some stronger kick drums though! It's hard to keep my interest without good noticeable percussion tongue It could just be me, but it seems to me that it could help out a bit!

Anyway, I'm on gmail chat right now if you wanna chat it up or something smile
