I also got one Frontlighted here, but i didn't do it.
Also i don't recommend it, 'cause the light get's dimmed really fast D: (But maybe that's just the soldering from the dude who did it?)

The first Volume of "Tour de Chip".
"Tour de Chip" is a serie of mini-EPs made by me inspired by various locations all over the World. In the first installment i went to Greece, near the City Thessaloniki. More "Tours" of course will follow in the future, but right now i got a little bit stress and also planning something big for Summer '2012
In the Download you'll find the full CoverArt and 4 Pictures that kinda inspired the tunes.

Enjoy your day ♫

And don't be so harsh, first EP i ever released :I

Bes thing for modding ever.
Only thing that i'm kinda unhappy about: You could had shown some pics from the Inside.
At last, wasn't the start of the project the "space-issues" that the DMG kinda have when it comes down to modifiy them?

Me too.
I would understand it if it would say "Fac†ory Bea†s". That would look more like a "t", instead of a "+".

But yeah, putting links in here isn't so hard when using Copy & Paste.

Pick your poison.

Nope, cause it's a little piece that fits in your hand. Made it back then in school.

1. Started in November 2010, but after like a half year dropped it, because of my sucky skills. But no one is safe of my trashy music so i started Chiptune again like 3 months ago and know i'm beeing damm serious about it.

2. Chiptune David. I've heard Crystal Castles "Love and Caring" without him before him and thought it was trash. But as soon as i heard "Where am I" from David i was hooked, did research listen to some other good chipstuff and started to name myself 9-Heart.

3. A GameBoy and the Tracker LSDJ. Other gear is just cables and a recording box, but i'm planning to get more stuff.

4. Nothing. The only other stuff i hear is German Rap (but only 1-2 Artists) and some German Rockbands if i go partying. Inspiring most of the times comes with Chiptune, Electrotrash, Chiptrash, Nerdcore and so on, most of the time it's somehow chiprelated.

5. There are notes out there.
To be honest i know fairly little, can't barley play an instrument. Music Class i took in school, but at that time i was not interested in making music so i skipped it and took Art Class till the end.
Today i'm waiting that somebody creates a time machine to travel back and tell my past-me to take the fcking music class!

6. Don't start with LSDJ. It's complicated. I've heard that Famitracker is a little easier on beginners so start there. If you know about making music (like you played in a band before) than you can try what ever pleases you.

7. Currently no, but i'll start something in August and also got one dude who would like to get me some Gigs.
7.a. If it would happen, it would be OpenAir (like on a Field or in a BIERGARTEN!) or like i said this one dude owns a little music club with a small stage where i could play.

I skip the other two, 'cause i'm planning to do it.

I've got my name from a piece of metal so i avoid any competition.

I'm just a 19 year old Dude who works in the Industry.
Most of the time i'm just the jackass that has to do other guys work or clean shit up. If this isn't the case i'm standing 8 hours next to a machine and have to watch that i just works. Oh, and we're producing bottled water and softdrinks.
Because it's a shift work, my freetime depends on the time i have to work. Sometimes i come home at 09:00 PM and have to be back at Work the next day at 01:00 PM or i have to work early in the morning or late in the night. Always 8 hours. Really sucks.
Never wanted to work there, but i started there when i was 16, and the job i wanted to do i only could start when i'm 18 ('cause of laws and stuff). Now i'll stay there one more year to put some money on the side to get my on place to stay and then i'll start as a trainee in the job i always wanted to do - Eventtechnician, which means to build up stages, set up the Sound, the Lights and all the other good stuff.

On the weekends i write my music, hang out with my buddies or go to Partys, Events or visit another City (Shopping and Stuff, ya know).
I smoke alot when i'm working or at partys, drinking is not that bigger problem. Except for the fact at home we got our own brewery (My Dad is a Brewmaster), so sometimes i drink homebrewd beer - Which is really good, we're making good money with it.
I worked out like a half year, but then got kinda bored to go to the gym. My body is totally fck'd up - Got like 13 Scars, most of them on the right side of my body. All from the fcking Industry.
Most of the people around here don't know what Chiptune is - In fact don't know it exist and they are saying sounds like trash, shit, etc. Friends support me, but even one of them sad once "You can't make money with this shit." So really hard around here, but i know where to go if i'm done with my first EP to get a Gig in a little Club, it's good to get at least a little bit of support.

My Family is great, don't need a girlfriend right now, i'm making enough money to live, but most of the time i'm broke cause i bought some DMG related stuff.

Well, guess that all you need to know.
And i think it should say "What's your life besides [...]"?

Have you ever saw some Awesome Databent Pictures and thought: "Meeee, why me can't do this?"
Well suffer no more, brothers! I got you a tutorial that even your mom would understand to create some databent pictures of you, which she could show at your next family meeting!
Just follow the link and learn more => DATABENDING!

I'm in a region where nobody can relate to 8bit or chiptune - Hell, most of the people dosn't even know it exists. Only thing they can relate is the word GameBoy.
And i got mad love for the Blooper, and the fact that im barly known in my region does the rest. So a Blooper is just right for the situation and where i am right now.

That said: if you're using this as something to represent you as an artist, something a bit more original would probably be more fun?

Nah, don't worry, i just like databend stuff and liked how this one turns out.
For the representing i'm using another graphic, drawn by iXDXSX. In fact it's this one:

Right now, i'm working out with him about his cut. 'Cause if i start printing shirts with this i don't want to just be a dick and make money with a design he made in his free time for me with the costs of nothing.

@LTC:
Of course they are dicks, maybe they would even rip the design off and make themself some shirts.

In my area as soon as you go in a Tattoo Shop and just say the world "tribal" they kick your sorry ass back on the street.
For most TattooArtist they are just plain & simple black colored pieces which are splattered randomly across your body parts.

I almost thought that, damm.
Thats also why this one chiptune dude dosn't sell that one shirt with four pokémon-sprites on spreadshirt. But he uses a Metapod as logo and on another t-shirt instead?
