I thought that "Endless Fantasy" was one of the Milkytracker songs, and figured that the NES was there for show. I mean, the power LED is flashing on and off...

Could have been the "no cartridge" blink and acted just for show. Also, it is possible that they are using SOME means of NES-MIDI sync, not probably but the software and hardware options do exist (rather obscure though considering the Guch typically uses straight FTM playback and Nerdtracker).

Anamanaguchi is what it is because they are on top their game in general. Professionalism, social accessibility, songwriting and sound design, live performances, passion for their art, and generally wanting to share their joy with others even if it means starving or paying for things out of their own pocket. If anyone were to try and better themselves in any of these ways as an artist they would see some sort of increase in exposure. There is always room to grow, and the Anamana-Amtrak express is showing no signs of stopping their growth.

I was always under the impression that Anamanaguchi wrote their FTM tracks onto a custom cart for shows

I think one of the main reasons is their promotion and good communication with fans. When a band stays in touch with their fans as closely as Anamanaguchi does it helps to gain strong long lasting support. That coupled with the sonic blend and overall catchiness and uniqueness of their sound makes them very memorable. You can usually tell a song is by them just by listening to it, that's how you know an artist has done a good job making their sound and style unique to them.

seems like its time to put the old "but chiptune is too niche so i shouldnt try" chestnut to bed at the very least. hard work, talent and a good sound win out every single time. pete and co are an inspiration.

Yeah, only Anamanaguchi is a pretty open sort of chiptune. A lot of chiptunes style still are a niche. But I guess Anamanaguchi did a good job.

Yeah but I've heard even some SID type stuff making it into the mainlight and a lot of chip influence in a lot of bands and EDM

dope!

this needs to happen

I'm not here to morn artists who have moved on, sure it sucks they don't make anymore banging tunes but I wish them the best in life and if they left they had a reason. Only good vibes for those guys, hope life gives them the best of what they're looking for kudos to anyone who has every attempted to make music, it's a big undertaking and it's great that you could share the intimacy of your music or you mods or your art of whatever with us. Good luck guys

I would love to if I could, but it just seems a bit far for a lot of the people here in the states

This is so awesome, I love these odd time signatures and syncopation really a unique listen

Okay uhh I'd like to thank Chiprokku for being a cool dude and hooking me up with some DMG cases, Frostbyte and anamanamanananguchi for being an influence making cool music and being my first chiptune experience, J Arthur Keens for being an influence and cool guy, Revengineers and Nick Maynard for being an influence and for being awesome, anyone who liked my stuff (I'm sorry your ears are broken get well soon XOXOXO), uhh Kitsch for providing quality stuff. Big shoutout to AndrewKilpatrick over at Pxl-Bot for giving my EP an actual release

And shouts out to all the curmudgeons who like to tell me when I'm wrong, it helps me be right more often. And thanks to all the lovely members of cm.o and the late 8bc.o who made awesome music to listen to and enjoy. I feel like this thank you was long enough to be a Lupe Fiasco intro track.
