Submitted a track a bit back for this but I suppose it wasn't danceable enough.

hmm, actually, I'm not sure I got your track...send it again?

How is this compilation going to be released?

Well, I'm not quite sure yet. It'll definitely be up in the release forums on 8bc, chipmusic and noichan, I might host it up on my music website too if I ever get around to making it.

This is SICK. I got about halfway through the stream and decided I HAD to have it.

10 more days, yo, get your submissions in! I think I'm gonna call the compilation "Bit Bounce". We still need some album art for this, anyone wanna submit something?

I caught bits and pieces of this in-between working on songs, y'all are tight!

I'm moving down to socal in two months, check out my shit and let's play some shows! I dunno if I'd call it chipthrash but hopefully it should be intense enough.

This compilation is no longer accepting submissions

There was a bunch of interest about a comp like this in my thread about this on 8bc so UNCE UNCE: The Compilation is officially happening.

Here's the guidelines:

Tracks should be between 140-200 BPM and should have a danceable rhythm. Here's some examples of what I'm looking for:

Genre doesn't matter as long as you've got that kick drum slamming.

Submissions should ideally be in uncompressed WAV format. I'm going to be doing a little bit of adjustment to make sure all the track's volumes are equal and this is much easier to do if everyone sends me tracks in the same format.

Feel free to submit more than one track. Two or three is even preferred, at least one of your tracks is more likely to make it on and if they're all good they may ALL make the cut. Your tracks don't have to be brand new either, if you've got something good already released, please send it.

Please send all tracks or links to track downloads to samnrubin "at" gmail.com. I'm gonna set a tentative deadline for this at July 18th.

Artists who have submitted tracks:
Hyperwave
Zef
Starpilot
Kommisar
Whitely
nosebleed
Frostbyte
Poisoncut
Lazier Gunz
VCMG
Dos
DJ PIE
HarleyLikesMusic
kloudygirl
matecha
Moogle Charm

For the rest of the thread, I'm open to suggestions, album cover ideas, TITLE IDEAS, and anything else you can think of. Let's do this thing!
