Whoa these are both awesome! I know it's probably impossible but I wonder now if I could find something that I could plug my NTSC Amiga 500 into. Protracker 2.3d runs default in PAL and chops off the bottom/top of the screen on my RGB monitors, but with my very specific Amiga 1080 monitor I can adjust the V-HEIGHT to a point where Protracker refreshes the screen to fit everything on at once. It works but I feel nervous without a backup and this stuff is fairly difficult to get here in the states! 
Just discovering this thread now and wow Spintronic, you rock 
huge release and also loved your set at MAG
bumping this; looking for another good one and herr_prof's first link is now unavailable 
hilary clinton is doing some weird ass demographic targeting lately
sorry for double post but I think these are very very very good points:

like chiptune is an entire aesthetic based on what a large percentage of music listeners would call a gimmick
maybe artists shift away from "pure" chiptune because the things that determined aesthetic purity w/r/t chiptune have only gotten narrower as time has passed while music in general has gone in all sorts of directions

pm me lol

Most of the time it doesn't grab me at all and feels extremely lame. It takes someone special to pull off a transition like that.
I'm probably being a bit unnecessarily defensive here, but this kind of logic is a bit obnoxious to me. Who are we, as fans, to say to artists what style they "belong to?" Tastes evolve and inspiration grows - posts like this often (selfishly) concern me because I've always made more technical rock-influenced music before even toughing a gameboy but over the past couple years I've genuinely fallen in love with classic techno and many other forms of dance music so I feel anything I make like that in the future could be viewed as that "mandatory go at making chip-EDM" within the same community. What's very important to also note is this:

That very same transition could have been made for people when they even started making chipmusic, u feel me?
waiting for cheapshot's new techno EP 8)
I will always post this album when discussing GSXCC:
https://tenebrium.bandcamp.com/releases
Written with a General MIDI sequencer and then converted with GSXCC but since it's completely original music and doesn't exist in any other released format than this, I think this may be a great example of how to nicely use GSXCC.
That and the music is spectacular.
A new version of LSDJ for GBA, using 6 channels of FM.
I've been hunting for Mark Denardo's stuff for a little while, especially the vocal version of "Impala 66." I love his stuff, inclusive of the scoring work and the Graffiti Monster 7"
