As a man who appreciates a terrible pun, famous last birds has my approval.
Also, as ever, totally next level LSDJ skills.

It's great that chip music doesn't need Malcolm Mclaren to get places.
These guys own and they've worked hard to get this kind of attention. Good guys done good.

Re: Non-Chipmusic Projects (16 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I make downtempo, wonky, ambient shit with a lo-fi aesthetic when I'm not making chip or rock music. I'm also a regularly recurring member of John Richards Dirty Electronics Ensemble and I've played with Chris Carter (Formerly of Throbbing Gristle), DJ Sniff from STIEM, and Anna Meredith.

Seriously though, it's actually just based on the dreams the creator had. It was actually a very limited release and came with a book that had excerpts from the guys actual dream diary, along with original sketches.
I'm sure I've got a .pdf of it somewhere.
Talking of Dream Diarys. Play Yume Nikki.

Yeah, but where I live, it's a pain in the ass to find a reliable dealer for the stuff. My main one only sells bud and coke, the latter of which, I have no interest in.

My general thinking is: if the track sounds good raw, no need to make more of it. Don't fix it if it ain't broken.
Some sorts of tracks generally just seem to do better raw, too. Crazy noisy chipthrash shit, etc.
It depends on your audience as well. The harsher your production the less likely it is to appeal to more casual listeners, but people more involved with chip will be more likely to give it a chance.

Re: Mastering or straight sound? (95 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
Now I've started using grooves a lot its harder to align individual tracks for mixing, so I've been practicing just making it sound as good as possible on the hardware and recording straight. It's something you should probably do anyway, but I occasionally find myself being lazy about things if I think can sort them out later on. A tiny bit of reverb never hurt anyone.
The actual, compression aspect of mastering can feel a bit redundant when gameboys have such naturally limited dynamics.

Re: I wrote an article on how to chiptune (90 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Honestly, it's the "tune" bit. It sounds like all chipmusic comprises of is fun little ditties. So I annoyingly insist on using Chipmusic at all times.

Chiptune as a verb is annoying because it delegitimizes chipmusic by separating it from other kinds of music unnecessarily.
