			<description><![CDATA[<b><i>SketchMan3 says:</i></b><p>No doubt, man. No doubt. I look forward to seeing what you can do with LSDJ. LSDJ got so much soul, man. For me, it&#039;s so much easier to inject feeling into music with trackers than it is with DAWs.</p>]]></description>

I really appreciate you checking it out! I like how you totally understood my reasoning behind moving to LSDJ without me even saying it. LSDJ seems like the best step to take to avoid all of those &quot;fakebit&quot; criticisms that some people throw around. I wanted to write something but I wasn&#039;t familar with LSDJ yet so I just wanted to put some stuff out to kinda learn my own style of music and what my sound is gonna be like. Who knows, It could all change once I unlock the capabilities of LSDJ <img src="https://chipmusic.org/forums/img/smilies/yikes.png" width="15" height="15" alt="yikes" /></p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<b><i>zuuku says:</i></b><p>hey everyone, my first real post on the forums is the first release i ever put out under my chiptune project, Decnals.<br />It&#039;s called Lvl. Dew, and it&#039;s a free, four song EP. I wrote all of it using Reason software. <br /><a class="postimg" href="http://f0.bcbits.com/img/a0221263354_2.jpg" title="lvldew" id="forum_image_8329459"><img src="http://f0.bcbits.com/img/a0221263354_2.jpg" /></a> <br /><a href="http://decnals.bandcamp.com/album/lvl-dew" target="_blank">http://decnals.bandcamp.com/album/lvl-dew</a></p><p>I also have two singles for free on my bandcamp. At this point, I am learning to use <br />LSDJ and every release from now on will use that. </p><p>Feel free to leave me feedback here or on my facebook below!<br />Facebook is where I update all of my stuff and it honestly means the world to me when people like my page. <br />(More likes = more inspiration to write music). Enough self-promotion though, download it and let me know what you think! Thank you! <img src="https://chipmusic.org/forums/img/smilies/smile.png" width="15" height="15" alt="smile" /></p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/Decnals" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/Decnals</a></p>]]></description>
