Basically whenever I had a break, was waiting for something or somebody or just… well… sitting on the toilet, I&#039;d play around with it, trying out some ideas.<br />Somehow though I was never able to actually finish a song on it (except for one). So I just took these, exported them as single tracks, and finished them in a DAW, sometimes just adding a bit of delay, reverb, or some lowpass filtering, other times by re-arranging the tracks using Plogue&#039;s Chipsounds.<br />I ended up with enough tracks to make a whole album, but since they were a bit different in style I split the thing in two. So this is part one!<br />The tracks are probably more &quot;fakechip&quot; than actual chiptune (does Nanoloop for iOS qualify as a chiptune tracker?), but both the writing process and the inspiration are clearly coming from there, plus this forum has been my main source for discovering new albums, and inspiration!<br />Anyway... without further ado, here it is:</p><p><a href="https://pokabjorn.bandcamp.com/releases" target="_blank">https://pokabjorn.bandcamp.com/releases</a></p><p>More info about the tracks, for those interested in it:</p><p><strong>Late Night Drive-Through</strong><br />I wanted to create something with a kind of 80s feeling since I came up with a nice PWM pad on Nanloop and it really sounded like the 80s! The rest came from there. </p><p><strong>Smiley Face Pants</strong><br />This one is actually a mix between two Nanoloop tracks. Somehow they worked well together. It originally started as an (obviously failed) attempt to make a slightly DAF-meets-Dubmood-like track.</p><p><strong>Sedated Memories</strong><br />This is one is actually the Nanoloop project 1:1, I just re-wrote it using Chipsounds. It&#039;s my favourite of the bunch.</p><p><strong>In a Bleep Mood</strong><br />This one started from a simple beat I had created. It also fuses two Nanoloop tracks into one.</p><p><strong>Silly Train Ride</strong><br />I had posted an old version of this here in the music section... like years ago. I kept it pretty much unchanged and only added a bit of reverb and EQ on the exported tracks.</p>]]></description>
