Hi, I'm your favorite artist.

I'm going to make a special effort to teach you how to compose like me.

First of all, I'm composing with Sameboy.
https://sameboy.github.io/

And I am.
1. chords and other sounds are made in the PU1 channel.
2. make the main melody and other sounds in the PU2 channel.
3. making kick drum and bass in WAV channel.
4. making noise, hi-hat, cymbal and snare sounds in the NOISE channel.

The reason I make the kick drum and bass in the WAV channel is because it produces the most bass.

If you buy the entire "Don't" series on my bandcamp (or If you send me some of your favorite porn videos), I'll send you my sound template for I will give it to you.

Finally, my advice to you is.
It's better to be influenced by music other than chiptunes.
Because I'm not making chiptunes because I want to make chiptunes, I'm making music and I make chiptunes because I want to.

And this is my latest music.

Chiptune sucks, and it's fun!
FUCK'EM ALL!

WOW! Thank you Gigandect... I'm crying
I will of course buy and support your music!
I will remember all of this

Hi, Welcome!

I can't really help you with chipbreak stuff but I enjoyed listening to your music smile
I particularly liked the panning thing you did in RUFF. I like that kinda stuff.


Thank you! I like your tracks too.

Hello everybody, I am new to using LSDJ. I have dabbled in music for about two years. I do not know very much about it. I am still a beginner. I do know that a lot of my favorite songs are chipbreak songs. I like gigandect a lot. I do not have a lot of money. When I saw LSDJ was only a few dollars, I purchased a license and learned. I've been particularly into it for the past month. I plan to get a cartridge, but as you know they are not the cheapest and easiest things to find, really. No problem learning with the emulator.

problem is, I have not met any people into chiptune. I figured reaching out to people who know the DAW would be able to give me the best and most constructive feedback. I have been trying to learn a few pop songs on the piano, and generally study theory and structure, but as you know, theory is something you will continue learning throughout your music journey.

Saying this, I am open to all advice and feedback since I am new. I may be missing things. I am trying to only learn on the emulator using one gameboy for now. I have seen people produce good songs with just the 1 LSDJ. I may introduce polyphony at another time.

Ok, ok, enough of my life story. I want to show you three of my tracks I am working on. some of them seem more complete than others. I have not shown these tracks to really anyone, besides my best friends, none of which know anything about music. So I honestly don't have any specific critique I am looking for. I do think I struggle with "getting stuck" in the loop. I make a loop and delete it sometimes after a few days of messing around with it.
Also, I haven't decided on my recording setup really... so these sound a bit different.
Most recent:

One I have spent the most time on:
https://soundcloud.com/xfreddydangerx/pavement-wip  (recording isnt too great, sorry)
I think this one is most like what I am aiming for, but it's a bit too loud:

I hope this isn't too much information / too long. Looking forward to feedback. Let me know if you have any questions as well.

Thank you for your time, and thank you for listening.
Thanks so much.
