Don't know much about him though, wish he'd put out an original release of bullshit like this

but uhhhhhh

that's exactly why guitars and keyboards are so common, because it's easy to write any kind of music with them

I use my guitar to write dubstep all the time, no lie

and then I track it with LSDJ so expect my chipstep album this summer

As much as I agree with this, I also think that in the case of chiptunes, the medium is the message...  fucking bullshit if you ask me but you can't deny the fact that those sounds can change people's perceptions of the actual composition.  Not really the thread for this though.

SO!  I'm not hearing any hooks.  Why do I care about these songs?  You've gotta hook them right away.  White people love lyrics they can relate to, so for any instrumental music, they have to work extra hard to be memorable.  And if you're making music with gameboys or whatever, fucking forget it.  You should clearly define some rhythm section (which you do, to a certain extent, but it's not very interesting) and then have your lead play with it.  Then, switch it up; maybe you can use some call and response, or change the rhythm "strum" pattern, idfk

I agree with Sycamore Bro in that you should listen to more progressive shit, but I would go a step further and listen deeply to music that doesn't use gameboys, and then go a step furtherer and listen to musicians or bands you've never listened to before.  There are so many different musical genres to steal from!

also I have no idea what I'm talking about, I listened to 3 of your labeled chiptune tracks and you need to get to work if this is your final project for a class or something

EDIT: And you'll probably get better criticism if you actually finish some tracks.

We recommend using modded PSPs fully because they're fucking awesome.

With the Homer's Rin emulator, all you have to do is add/drop the .gz extension onto the end of the .sav files.

Literally, we just take our Chips_Challenge.sav.gz file and rename it to Chips_Challenge.sav, for example.

No reason to use a Gameboy unless you're a masochist

Guess I'm missing these covers

Can I get some links or are they just performing them live or something?  Didn't know this wasn't "in with the cool kids" because I love covers

Anyone want to start a chipmusic cover band????
