Just for the record I am nearing 28, and I am a Sega Genesis musician. That's a completely different kind of what the hell is wrong with you .

I think chip music is a good way to make friends but I think dating takes something deeper as other have said. I always thought it would be kind of cool to meet a girl, collaborate on something and perhaps slowly find that you have other things in common as well and maybe go from there. However, I've only met 2 girls in the chip community and both of them while extremely cool people seem to be into other girls. I have a sneaking suspicion that because the male to female ratio of chip musicians is so low that females probably feel that if they put themselves out there they'd get like tons of PM's from hormonal teenage boys that bought a gameboy, got into LSDJ, and want girls to send nude pics via game boy camera .

If I am going to take a serious approach to such a topic I would say put the love of music first and collaborate with as many people as you can in order to learn and grow as a musician. You will certainly make friends, and a small percentage of them will be female, and maybe just maybe one of them will be straight and if everything goes perfect you will have a weird chip tune girlfriend that lives too far away. So how about it ladies, want to learn VGM Music Maker and make beautiful Sega Genesis music together? lolol

Lower Octaves look like those colors through a tinted window and the lower the octave the darker the tint until a note is so low it is black. Higher Octaves have a shine or glow to them until the note is so high that it's pure white. When the notes are out of tune the hue changes and the colors just look off. Like washed out or, when the contrast/color on a TV is wrong. This helps me to tell you what note something is just by listening to it and I have to see the color first and then remember what letter that color/note is. Also, if there is a chord it's like boxes of those colors washed in whatever note the chord is in. Like C major is C,E,G. A box of Red, Light Blue, and Yellow, tinted in a red-ish glow. Tones like sawtooth and square wav can change the shape of the boxes to more angular or smooth and rounded depending on the tone generated. Strangely, square waves feel smooth and circular to me where as sawtooth feels more angular like a triangle or diamond . White noise gives it a texture of sand, and drums in general lack color. Black blocks for Deep kicks, Grey blocks for mid pitched snares, and white blocks and rectangles for hi-hats and a weird whitish grey ripple effect for crash cymbals. Tom drums can be light or dark depending on the pitch and have a circular shape like a square wave.

I think that covers most of it but if someone has more questions about what certain things look like, I can try to answer it. Interesting topic .

Would you be opposed to Sega Genesis music? If not, I can try my hand at it .
