Re: NEW CHIP ALBUM- FORGIVE THE CHASE (29 replies, posted in Releases)
Why, yes. I was.
Strange that you remember.Why do you ask?
Well I went on to 8bc and noticed a comment from 'Pompei' that I could have sworn you left as 'Pokemon Posers', and then saw you on here. Just wondered. I will get this album done very soon and make sure I get in touch.

Re: NEW CHIP ALBUM- FORGIVE THE CHASE (29 replies, posted in Releases)
So, it's going to be ready soon? Or is it out now and I just can't find the download link?
Hey it will be ready very soon. A bit longer now I'm going to try and have someone re-do the cover more professionaly. Pompei, were you Pokemon Posers?
I am playing with Errors on March 11th and definitely want some physical copies to sell. go to this!
Also trying to decide whether to have any of the chip/electro tracks on there.
A lot of people have been really great with feedback, thanks a lot, appreciate the opinions shared by the 8-bit community and the help I have received. Some people need to stop delving into every detail that eachother writes. I wanted a thread on here to discuss this upcoming release so I can do it right and be perfectly happy with the finished product. And yes it is always good to add a little hype for an album, otherwise no-one would want it. It is a good albums worth of material that I have spent a lot of time on so will take the time that is neccesary to do it right.
@Akira and Jellica: I opened this thread in the Releases section because it seemed the most appropriate. If there was an 'upcoming' releases section I would have put it there... however there is not
and everyones happy!
Thanks again people x

Re: NEW CHIP ALBUM- FORGIVE THE CHASE (29 replies, posted in Releases)
haha thanks shonen and shirobon. Means a lot, but I feel I need to work on the cover. I do aim to please, which this cover does not. Also thanks an-cat-max... I do honestly agree with most of your opinions. Also Reteris, I'm not sure whether to add any post production chiptune yet so, yeah not sure about that.
So does anyone know anyone who may be interested in designing a cover for me? Or know someone who is good that I could approach?

Thanks Koze, the cat person is actually me. My friend photoshopped a tiger on my head It did look very dynamic before adding that so will think about it. Wanted some colour on the cover though because the music is quite colourful...
@an-cat-max: can i ask what you don't like about it? Or is it just horrible.? lolocaust

Re: NEW CHIP ALBUM- FORGIVE THE CHASE (29 replies, posted in Releases)
I would of course take any work sent my way into consideration. Otherwise I wouldn't ask... I didn't suggest that I would ask someone and not use it
This is kind of getting off topic... I'm using this post to get some constructive criticism on the cover I have made. If you straight up don't like it, that's fine! but please put it nicely and offer some advice.
Thanks
p.s If anyone thinks I have done a wack job of the album cover and thinks they might be able to fashion something better please get in touch with me either on here or on myspace.com/labcoatandmac

Shit is brutal as fuck. I have not mentioned this in another thread. You're lucky we have these mp3 tags.
EPIC TUNE!

Really! ok.... well I really like it so am going to use it. Although it wouldn't hurt to see what someone else might produce. Any one you can suggest?

Re: Magnavox Odyssey 2 /w The Voice (5 replies, posted in Other Vintage Computers & Consoles)
This could be interesting.I have a similar unit, an Intellivision Voice module.
I am not sure if it works though, i never managed to hear it. Maybe the amplifier circuit is broken.
Never heard of it. I have been playing with 'The Voice' and it has a great 'You type it talks' catridge which my friends seem to be enjoying, making it say naughty words. (The maturity just skyrockets It is cool though. Considering this machine came out in 1978 that's quite impressive. Still looking for any ideas on circuit bending capabilities.
Any info would be great.

Does anyone know if The Odyssey 2 with 'The Voice' Sound extension has any Sound mod capabilities? Or is it just too old skool
Thanks
