Thanks again for the feedback. Note: It's better to download this album and listen to it on your own computer. For some reason the player on bandcamp clips the bass in some songs and makes it sound more choppy than it actually is. (Side note: Does anyone know why this is and if there's any way to correct it? Maybe it's just a flash or browser setting on my end?)

Thanks guys.

Ui: It's mostly my early stuff I've uploaded here already all compiled together. There's a few tracks I've never upped anywhere before though.

Atom Bender's Place (just upped it here today as a promo though)
Television Addict
Generate
MPDoubleAFuckOff
Our New Robot Brains Part 3
Atom Bender's Place (C64 version)
Arcade Empire (C64 version)

Those are all the unheard ones I think.

Oh, and I'm already almost finished the follow-up to this. BUNCH of new tracks never upped anywhere. It'll maybe be ready in a month or 2.

Thanks. Yeah, it's essentially a punk album. A genre well known for being fairly repetitive. I actually purposely only included mostly tracks of the same "genre" and mastering (with the exception of the C64 tracks.) The follow-up album I'm working on now has a lot of variation between tracks, but there's still a bunch with the basic 3 chord punk style as well.

Hi all. This is a collection of my early lo-fi ataripunk stuff plus some additional tracks I've never released.

It's free. Go get it. Tell your friends. Start a fan club. Do something with your life. Be somebody.

No new cTrix track. I'm officially upgrading the status of my discontent from Code: "Damn" to Code: "This is some Bullsh*t!"

Great release, dude. It's a must DL for certain. 80s Montage is pretty as hell. Loving that site design too.

It's the upload that's broken. Downloading and player is fine.

If you want melodic chip music, you can't really go wrong with the classic c64 composers like Galway, Tel, or the Follin Bros. (especially Tim.) Some Matt Gray stuff too. I'd recommend the Dominator music. You can have a shitload of fun just browsing the classic c64 stuff on youtube.

Modern chip that's more melody driven, I personally really like Talk to Animals (Which is a hybrid of very rhythmic stuff with an overall melody and structure. Check out the song "Wolves.") and J Arthur Keenes band, Anamanaguchi etc.

Shameless self promotion. A few of my songs up here are more melody driven. Check out Our New Robot Brains (the first one, not part 2) or Atari Combat Rock. Granted, they're simple Ramones influenced 3 chord melodies, and they use Atari 2600 sounds more than Nintendo, but they're more oriented towards melody than beats like some of my other stuff. My stuff is somewhat simple and abrasive though, so I won't be offended if you hate it.

Damn. Never had the chance to attend. Sad news, but cheers and congrats to everyone involved in making Blip Fest the amazing event it was. Hopefully someone will be inspired to carry the torch. Chiptune is definitely on the rise in terms of both the amount of fans and the excellence of the performers. It needs to continue to be showcased.

Beck did some chip tune mixes of his songs.
