I thought the song was great! It may be repetitive, but not in a bad way (at least not for me.) It's a very chill song. Downloading it for sure.

Re: Chiptune attire? (148 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Wear whatever you want. I don't think I've seen any one "chipmusic style" out there. That's one thing I love about this community: diversity. All sorts of different people are involved in it and we all share an interest in awesome music.

I went to school with Kent from TB, they just opened for Cursive. Pretty dope. Someone mentioned spokompton earlier and it made me curious for the chipscene there, if there was one.
I love Kent. All of those guys and gals from TB. Kremland and I are wanting to start something here in Spokane, but I don't think people will be too interested. Anyway, I'm still trying to get enough material to last a full set and then we will start looking for other people to play a show with. There are a few electronic bands (influenced by videogames) around, but no chipmusicians besides us. We made it over to Seattle for the first X Bit show, which was fun.

The chiptune scene in Spokane is almost non-existent... As far as I know, there are only a few people here that write music (Kremland and myself). There are absolutely no chiptune shows, but the music scene is starting to grow a little with bands like Terrible Buttons, NUDE POP, The Cyprus Experiment, and more. I've lived here my entire life and I love it here. You get to experience all four seasons (unfortunately Spring and Fall mostly belong to Winter) and it is much prettier than other places east of the Cascades. I would like to eventually head over to Seattle, though, for the music scene and better job opportunities (Spokane is #1 for "Worst Employment Outlook" in the country). Seattle is much more exciting than Spokane... so unless you know people here, Seattle is probably a better choice. I love that so many people are looking into moving to Washington! Everyone is welcome!

Pitch bends and slides work exactly the same for me on my GBC as they did on my DMG.
Oops... I forgot to mention that they did work on a later released GBC (when they released more colors.) Don't let my experience deter you from trying out a GBC. I'm just not sure why my GBC freaks out on slides/pitch bends.

Re: Gameboy Color or DMG (95 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
My first Gameboy was a GBC and when I first started LSDJ I used that. For some reason I wasn't able to get pitch bends or slides to work on the GBC... When I got an original GB both those commands started working correctly. I don't really know why that was happening on the GBC... but aside from LSDJ not working correctly, I prefer the sound of an original GB. It really all comes down to taste... which most people have already stated...
PS: Anyone else have issues with GBC and pitch bends/slides? I have the original model of GBC.

Re: 2 x LSDJ vs 1 x LSDJ (134 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
I have only played around with 2X LSDJ for a couple songs, but from my experience it seems harder. It could be that I'm just so used to the constraints of using 1X LSDJ and haven't become used to the extra channels. Like Jellica said, I usually write on 1X LSDJ and then, if I feel the need, add harmonies or other bits on the the second. Just mess around with both and see what you like more. Experiment o _ o
