What's everyone's favorite chip release this year?
Mine are:
Roboctopus: Tidal Bout [melodic LSDJ]
Chibi-Tech: Moe Moe Kyunstep (Great sound synthesis NES music]
That's literally it, I haven't been checking out the forums much this year regarding releases. Hopefully y'all can contribute to increase my 2012 collection of music.
EDIT:
Plus spread the word of great artists, that deserve appreciation for their hard efforts.
