Re: does anyone really still like chiptune? (168 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I keep hearing about people doing FM stuff but I'm not seeing it. I know a handful of people who do FM jawns but I don't think it's taking off like people think it is.
I'm doing a lot of FM, but mostly not tracker based.In my dreams I want to be able to replicate old PC98 games like coda and surasshu. Unfortunately I'm a bit naff at it.

Yamaha's 4-op series are the new punk.
I recently moved to rotterdam, and I was genuinely pretty sad I had to leave my FB01 behind.
Did manage to smuggle my genmdm over the border though. Just need a dutch Megadrive now.

You're right. Everything that takes more than 3-4 hours to go to is not worth it. Even if it's the biggest chip-festival in Europe. Maybe next year it'll be in London.
I just meant it's not round the corner.

Re: Chiptune attire? (148 replies, posted in General Discussion)
orly? I thought irony as a lifestyle choice was something we did in the 90s to clash with our dead serious either hippie or yuppie parents?
pasted from wikipedia:
"hipsterism fetishizes the authentic" elements of all of the "fringe movements of the postwar era—beat, hippie, punk, even grunge", and draws on the "cultural stores of every unmelted ethnicity", reinventing it "with a winking inauthenticity."[4]
ok so being all about gameboys is ok as long as you are dead serious?
sorry but I just have to
Being serious and not being ironic aren't necessarily the same thing.

If you're not swingin' on the flippity-flop in your fuzz and kickers, you might as well be a cob nobbler in the tom-tom club.

Re: Taking mono into consideration? (24 replies, posted in Audio Production)
If your song is ever playing on a shitty radio in the corner of someone's room, it's essentially playing in mono. Any time phasing cancelling occurs in a mono mix, it's going to have repercussions on sub standard stereo set-ups as well.
Also consider that clubs/bars all effectively play music in mono.

Topic: Toriningen-TORININGEN [Alternative Chiprock] (0 replies, posted in Releases)
http://toriningen.bandcamp.com/album/toriningen
Two years ago a friend and I wrote and recorded an album under the name "Toriningen".
However, I suffer from extreme procrastination and never actually released the album. After playing one mildly successful show (in which we were billed as "Geek DJ's"), we moved apart and the project, as it stood, has come to a halt.
After sitting on the tracks for something well over a year,we've decided to release them.
There's up's, there's downs. Frankly I think there's some right crackers on it. As well as two quite obvious "myfirstlsd.mp3" tracks.
Enjoy. Or not.
"Explosive", "compelling", "Easily the best thing since Tchaikovsky".
LSDJ, FB01, SID, Guitar ect.
Track List:
1. I
2. Toriningen
3. Boxcutter
4. Cutback Drop Turn
5 V
6. Kyubey
7. VIII
8. Bumbleclart
9. Two Cracked Ribs and a Collapsed Lung
10.True End (Short Ver.)
