Thanks Stevens! I wasn't sure if it was cool to post a track that isn't 100% chip to the music section and i did want some feedback too. Thanks for listening and yeah there's a lot of 90s influence going on. I've heard Touchboy and like his stuff very much. I'll check out yours too!

Length is never an issue.

This is marvellous! I don't know why you posted this in constructive criticism, this is a much more professional track than a lot of renowned chipmusic. The only thing I might say in that regard is that 6.50 *might* be a bit long for some people but I didn't find it repetitive and it's good for mixing, so that doesn't bother me!

I adore 808 State/Drexciya/early Rephlex/R&S/Warp/etc and I feel like this track owes a lot to that kind of early 90s melodic techno. If you're into that style in chipmusic, you should check out Touchboy and dare I say it my own stuff.

hi peeps!
we've admired chipmusic for a long time and have our first track up now.
i guess it's not 100% chip because we use other instruments too but the commodore64 is essential and in all of our tracks.
this is pretty much our line up on all tracks:
commodore64 - bass, leads, sounds
casio cz1000 - chords
tr-707 - drums.

first song is called "surf avenue": http://soundcloud.com/sea64/surf-avenue

more to come soon. oh we live in brooklyn - see you at blipfestival!
