And welcome!

Because I hate everything Gameboy/LSDJ, I will instead direct you towards this:

You can find tutorials for it on my blog: http://n00bstar.blogspot.ca/

Start with a gamboy emulator and the demo version of LSDj.
I'm a fan of the emulator VisualBoy Advance.
Read the instructions for the latest version of LSDj, experiment, and ask questions (only after you scour the forums looking for a preexisting answer)

Hope nobody starts with any flaming posts and such...google google google...you will eventually stumble upon them all later on~

Anyways down here is just a list of mine whenever some of my friends want to start making chipmusic (this list is only catered to the LSDJ users on the gameboy) fyi: LSDJ can be emulated on the PC too..

There are trackers and many other sequencing programs used on other platforms which I wont be explaining any further...like i said google google google...

Hey guys,
I'm absolutely new to chipmusic and chiptunes in general. I found out about through hours of bored browsing the internet and became immediately enamored.. I would love to start up making beautiful music, and but have no idea where to start. I am actually familiar with music (choir, piano, ukulele), but this is unlike anything I have any experience at, so advice would be very appreciated! And maybe some software or hardware ideas as to how to get started.
Thnks.
