P.S. sorry (i guess?) for having a video-game-reference name :v
I wouldn't worry about it, perceptions on this stuff are all personal based on how people got into it really. Some of us old farts are perplexed by the console/game associations because our first chip music was probably written by hand in BASIC.
yea absolutely! i just wonder if these kind of names are undermining the "punk" aspect of the scene by tying it to a culture that's intrinsically capitalistic? maybe i'm just channeling zan-zan now
but tbh i've almost entirely strayed from using gaming imagery since very early on anyway, cause it's just not who i am. but i guess i stuck with the name cause it represents a whole lot of things that don't really have anything to do with pokemon (which is probably why the people who made pokemon came up with it in the first place, fancy that)
there are people who go to university for several years to study how to compose music and they end up writing awful 12-tone wank so y'know i guess it's all about what you think is good.
i'd say it's definitely necessary to write "clever" music, but then there's got to be people who'd disagree with that too haha
those with composition degrees are responsible for a large part of pop music
oh i wasn't saying that composition degrees force you into writing avant garde music, just that you can study this stuff and still make music that doesn't sound good

set vibrato type to high frequency, put a VFx on first frame of the table, switch to V0x/1x a frame or two down to get a bit of that "pbbbft" trumpet attack sound
it basically means you can't put savable games and LSDJ on the same cart cause the save data will be constantly overwritten or corrupted. but if you just have LSDJ it's fine, you can save a whole bunch of songs onto one .sav file man.
drag and derp is an expensive option but it's also really good + you're supporting a rad australian chip dude (which is probably the best reason to buy a dnd imo!)
very like is considering that hardware to make 8 bit music is scarce.
it's not scarce at all, and you don't need 8-bit hardware to make good chip music. playing a midi file (that someone else probably made) through gxscc isn't good enough.
