I wonder who the real account behind this troll is.

YES!
It's not bad if you can't understand the lyrics, but the high pitched squealing aspect of the screaming sounds like that kid from youtube that spazzes out when his mom cancels his world of warcraft account.
This synthesis is boring, undynamic, and basically just stock instruments. You should experiment with combinations of tables and commands, and learn how to make kick drums and snares in LSDJ by using tables. Try stacking noise instruments with kit instruments for punchy drum sounds.

Listen to some 10k. His vocals are boss and he's pretty much perfected the style I think you're aiming for. Learn LSDJ more. You don't have to release everything or rush. I waited a long time before I ever released any tracks, and I was really happy that I did in the end.

And yea, quit asking people what they want to hear and make what you want.
I'm sure there are some exceptions, but all these new artists are always rushing to get popular and get their next new ep out, but they're always getting way ahead of themselves as their songwriting skills, synthesis, and originality need time and practice to develope.

Keep at it and don't give up. I know this sounds harsh but I'm just trying to help. Take a chill pill and learn your stuff.
That being said, I can hear that you have a lot of potential. Keep practicing and making tracks. Keep singing and playing guitar, keep experimenting. It's really cool that you're super eager and open to revising your stuff and improving it. This shows that you have the potential to get better and better. Keep at it, man.

Needs variation, pulse/wav/kit kick drums, anything to make the synthesis more interesting. The melody is nice. Build it up and make an epic drippidy drop. Listen to some music you like and how it sounds... pay attention to the instruments, try to emulate those instruments or make your own. Read the LSDJ manual... Experiment.

Listening to the first track and loving this. Great sounds and melodies. Anticipating the rest of this. Love the kit drums. It's nice how thick you can get things sounding with two LSDJs.

People should really check this release out

My advice to you is to use your program for about a year, and do some self censoring. Listen to some stuff that is out there, listen to music you like, and then compare it to your music. Listen to the sounds, the melodies, the harmonies, the instruments the synthesis etc. It seems like many new artists are eager to release ep's, tracks, albums etc. If you want to make a bang and if you want people to listen to your music, wait a while, improve your synthesis skills, your composition etc. It's not the worst album I've heard, "Hostile" has some cool ideas but I still don't think you've worked on these tracks enough to bring them to a level of release. But who the hell am I to tell you what to release and what not to?
I guess my point is, if you want people to listen to your music and come back to it more than once, be patient, work, rework, and rework again. Experiment with synthesis. Write a LOT of songs, do short "exercise" songs and wait til you can compare your music to some other really good chiptune music out there and honestly say "my stuff is on par with this". Then release it, hype it, and you will probably get some great responses, praise, and feedback. Keep working hard and don't give up, man. peace

thread back off track (stop intentionally aping genres)

I have a pile of cool magic cards, mostly in red, and zero people to play against since ze local gaming club just does miniature wargaming now, which is cool in its own way but not for my purposes. got four LEDs and a Show&Tell too, need buyers ;F

How much you fetch for one of dem LED's, mate? I got 4 but could always use 4 more so so I don't have to switch em out of combo decks

oh yea, and something something dubstep something chiptune.

Sweetest Dubstep Chip release I've heard: By Kraettz Done with 2 LSDJ
way under-appreciated

Great release brozepher, diggin it.

Amazing release. Great job, guys! Hope I can see you live some day.

Been really getting into House and listening to some really cool chip house/Dance music these past few years, some of my fav artists that stick out are Misfitchris, Knife City, Promwolf, JddJ3J, Ctrix, A.M.U., IAYD, USK, Jemapple, electric children, Fighter X, DS-10 Dominator, WDUWSTS, Low-Gain, Trash80, Jellica, And few more I probably forgot. I never fail to be impressed by awesome releases buy particularly LSDJ releases, as that's where I get a lot of push from (in a motivational inspirational way) and today I restumbled upon a I don't know how overlooked LSDJ house release I'm bumping right now: Dubmood C'etait Mieux en RDA vol 2

It's hard to believe it's just gameboy at times. U think there's some custom kits up in that beast? Anyhow, check it or re-check it if you feel like it.
p.s. still trying to figure out how A.M.U. gets his kicks. I know it's layered with the noise channel, and the pulse channels are probably turned way the flip down in volume, those kicks are just so poppy.
I just am always inspired by unique synthesis in LSDJ artists like these guys

I've been away for quite some time as well and I say check out the 8bp knife city album... also anything kraetzz has done (kittenrock) and if you haven't checked out his dubstep release, so so (even if you don't dig dubstep like me). Drag an d drop carts are at the tips of our fingers soon. Misfitchris poops out pure gold, so check out anything and everything he's done. like the other fellows said, 8bc is dead. Check out promwolf on bandcamp. Ctrix came out with some sweet atari 2600 music making stuff... There's lots of noobs flooding chip.org since 8bc closed down... rock
