Ive said this before but there are three temples of chip. People who think the sounds are whack but the songs are perfect (ocremix), that the sounds are awesome but the songs annoying (modern chip dudes) and that both are perfect and must never change (famicompo covers section
)
I hate hearing shitty vst redux of ffII soundtrack as much as you, but having them mentioned in the same breath isn't so outrageous.
I'd like to point out that I also had this article published for work... haha

eh, i feel bad for ranting about lazy journalism... iI know these people generally have the best intentions, and if the genre is going to grow, it needs media attention, and the more sympathetic the source the better. this kind of reporting just happens because the narrative of "omg videogame dance music" is just so easy to fall into.
maybe public perception would change a bit if "those of us who are known to interact with the media" were to make a effort to educate journalists/interviewers/viewers (in a friendly manner) on the genre distinctions. media people just want "a story about this whacky music", so usually they are pretty willing to let you (the subject) set the angle. and often if you don't, they will just ad lib with whatever their preconceptions happen to be.
so take the initiative and educate the people! be the change you can believe in! platitude platitude platitude! platitudinal beliefs. vote primate 2012.

Its definitely becoming more of a problem, because as media exposure grows, i feel like the people who would really enjoy our genre would be totally turned off by how it is being presented. And dont even get me started on the people who WOULD like the description.

Oh btw 10k your article was awesome.. learned a couple of essential things in chip history that I wasn't aware of due to not being a part of the scene even close to the time. Thanks!
