Kittenrock and Chippanze present: Balearic Beats vol 43 – Chipmusic sounds of summer.

14 tracks of the types of things you might hear on an Ibiza Chillout compilation CD that your mum might buy from a supermarket, but made using old computers, consoles and trackers.

Fresh tracks from Yerzmyey, Joss Manley, Hypnodrive, Comptroller, Cheapshot, Pulselooper, irrlicht project, tmt, Mr. Spastic, GOTO80, Jellica, Mister Beep, Rico Zerone and Vince Kaichan (and a last minute secret track that didn't make the deadline!)

Art by KeFF.

Stream/Download at the Chippanze Bandcamp or Kittenrock

you could do a lot more with 2 gameboys! :)

nothing wrong with repetition but if you are gonna go for it, i think you need to get need to get a more hypnotic groove thing going on, rather than simple melodies/bassline.

got em both. sorted. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I’ve corrected a bunch of dead links for some of the older releases that were hosted on Lazerbeat‘s old webspace. I guess I missed updating some of the links when we moved from the test website he had hosted and when I fucked up the old website he built.

There are however still a bunch of dead links to other websites that hosted some of the older releases. Lots of the old preview links are dead too because they were from the days before you fucks had streaming everything on your dickhead mobile phones. :P

If anyone has any of the following releases stored somewhere you might make me happy:

My Two Robodads – How Thoughtful – from 2008
Grand Theft Andrew – Robot love Songs – from 2006

thanks

im just naturally deep.

you can go down the whole recording each channel separately thing and playing in a DAW, but for me this kinda destroys part of the fun of using the old hardware or methods or whatever - i like to avoid standard techniques available on a modern computer to make music but this equally applies in the non-chip music i like to make.

chip music doesn't have to be in your face.

i prefer to spend time working on the textures in my music (rather than fancy chords and melodies), so for my c64 stuff its all about the filter interacting across multiple channels, weird ADSR commands, and experimenting with the ringmod. having 3 slightly different snare or hihat sounds and two different kicks.

the c64 has a bit of a mind of its own sometimes, so the unexpected interactions we have with each other have nice results.

This one is a bit nostalgic. Bunch of Micromusic.net era stuff along some other shit.
