Oh man I can hear that processing speed! It's blowing my mind!

it gets to a point where faster processing speed precedes faster and more complex music... generally tongue

Decent music is not about speed, man.

you could sidechain and m/s in any number of free software solutions, though!

NES has thin, thick and fat. those are your shapes.
you can try modulating between duty cycles reaaaaally fast in lieu of FM synthesis - have a look at some of neil baldwin's work for ideas (i don't know if it's open source though)

do you need to make both the album art and music vid for this project?

I am so confused by this thread. It's like asking if bands should have one guitarist or two.

always five guitars, at least.

but...but you're so good at uptempo stuff. it's so...you. I mean "We Fucking Win" definitely proves that you CAN do other styles, as well as your stuff under midimachine, but i love the happy stuff you release.

i mean more that if i was to play, say, any of my rancid meatflaps style material at a show then i would have to make the performance silly and dumb or it wouldn't feel right. like, i can't make raw and edgy music without delivering it behind this smug undertone of "lol nobody actually likes this kind of music amirite" because i don't have the confidence or passion in that style to be able to deliver it completely straight-faced. there's probably nothing inherently wrong with that either, but it's just how i feel re: zan-zan's comment.

actually, i play up the "silly and dumb" aspect of my v-road stuff live as well so maybe that's just reflective of my own insecurities as an artist tongue

honestly, i don't even know what constitutes "uptempo" or "typical" chiptune. all i know is that i've yet to release a single track with a BPM slower than 180 :v

Does this count as a released song? http://soundcloud.com/midimachine/victo … ucking-win

no that's just something i uploaded to the internet. a clear distinction, i know tongue

i'd love to make more subversive music and i feel that i'm completely capable of doing so, but i'd be nervous about putting it forward in an un-ironic way, though. <- "lol what a pussy, htfu nerd"

dubmood done made me feel bad about making uptempo music :<

dubmood is damn right. Unce-laden typical upbeat chiptune annoys the hell outta me. Yes, there is a place for it, but not 8 out of 10 artists at an event like he mentions. I think he is going over board a bit with this estimation though. At least as far as Blip Tokyo and Cheapbeats events go wink

i was joking about feeling bad, btw, i don't think anyone should ever feel bad about making music that they enjoy making and listening to! smile

also i think the pokemon name annoys people for some reason
