A little bag that came with a shitty digital camera that I no longer own. The bag was way too fucking big for the camera, but almost the exact size of a DMG.

Re: Event needs a brief description of chiptune (32 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I think you should add a short bit about what sort of genres will be played by the artists on the bill. If it's dance/rock/death metal it will attract different crowds.
If they were to ask for an event description and you said "dance music programmed onto old games consoles", they will have a better idea of how to promote it.
Seems like it's shaping up to be a lot of things.

I'm advocating going for the "here's something mysterious and surprising you have not seen before" approach.
Marketing is easy if you go for the lowest common denominator.
I feel that the latter doesn't invoke the former.

The venue wants your "elevator pitch," for which "Mario at a Rave" works provided you actually sound like Mario at a rave. The answer you give should relate to your own sound, not necessarily to chipmusic as a whole. Decktonic had the right idea, though it should be shorter if you can help it, and ... Decktonic's only works if you are actually pushing the limits of your system...
I don't think a single one of us has any hairtune. Decktonic's given a fairly accurate description, albeit a bit wordy.

Have any of you been in a situation where you were asked by a venue to provide a brief summary of chipmusic for the sake of the venue's promotion of the event/the scene? If so, can you give me some help with keeping it concise, accurate and likely to attract the interest of unfamiliar outsiders?

Re: Releases using mixed hardware chips (30 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Id love to see a super programable drum machine synthcart upgrade. FAT KICKS.
It'd be cool if one could progressively add in individual instances of sounds into a loop, the way Nanoloop works, instead of now, where it's just triggering instances of entire beat sequences over the bpm.

Was chatting to cTrix the other day, turns out the 2600's TIA chip is a terribly atonal and hard-to-harness thing apparently.
It's be pretty cool for a noise set though!
That's what I've heard/what I'm thinking.
