You need to start somewhere, friend. This just happens to be yours and people here just happen to frown upon these things.

KEEP GOING. Don't stop. Ya your name might be a bit funny, but WHO SHOULD CARE? For all they know it could just be that you've created a garageband called chiptunes.

I agree with most people in saying that the learning curve is the best way to go. Learn your hardware, then slowly slowly slowly work away at it. Soon you'll develop the skills to make things sound thick.

Happy composing:)

I also checked out your Face to Face remix. dude use more than 3 instruments. you have no hardware limitations like everyone who uses a real gameboy/nes/whateverz. Covers are a great way to practice different techniques when you're new to using the computer to make music, especially if you are actually doing it by ear, but experiment more and fill out the sound more.

Also, I hope you are not really using Garageband Chip as your alias.

He has a point... In my view, the best way to start out is to create shitty but original tunes. Like I'm no Sabrepulse, but there is a definite improvement in my tunes from when I started and now. Really, get an emulator (VBA, BGB, etc) and use LSDJ with it. I started (and am currently using *grr*) with LameBoy (emulator) with my R4. LSDJ is what I am using with it. I began my chiptunes by compiling random notes together and attempting to make something out of them. I know. A crappy way to do it. But I figured most stuff out with minimal help (save LSDJ manual and my cousin). Really, original tunes are the way to go, as you can see how you're improving, and you won't piss off people with bad covers.

I'm sure you'll find magical 8bit very limiting in terms of it's sound design capabilities and sound quality in general. If you can, I'd suggest chipsounds.
It will run as an audio unit so it will be usable from garageband. It's $95, but Christmas is coming up. If chip is something you're keen on, talk to your parents about it.

I know David (the guy behind plogue) personally and all the hard works he did (and still doing) on chipsounds is just amazing !!! Totally worth the 95$ !!!

Edit : btw you're too late (twice) for Daft Punk covers ! tongue

Work on some original music, and when you've worked your guts out and have an original track you can be proud of, show us.
