all this bullshit going-off-on-a-dubstep-tangent in newer chiptune artists should stop. It is so annoying when you have a song thats cool and danceable but than you just make it really corny by doing stupid dubstep wubs and bass in the middle just for mass-appeal. This happens in every electronic genre nowadays. Like, okay, if you're going to make dubstep, make a new moniker for your dubstep project, or at least make a single song that is solely a dubstep vibe. But it pisses me off when people are playing a set and it sound like something completely not like dubstep, and is more intellegent sounding than dubstep, but than you stop that and do some stupid wubby interlude as if only to scream "Hey guys look, we're in!!".

Stop please.

This^^

And the fact that new comers jump straight to lsdj without even knowing what a tracker is or how chiptune is composed, LEARN YOUR SHIT AND FOCUS ON THE MUSIC INSTEAD OF JUMPING STRAIGHT TO A GAMEBOY BECAUSE IT MAKES YOU LOOK COOL!

I've had friends come to me and ask me where they can get gameboy modz so they can make CHIPCHOONES, without even having any experience with music composition whatsoever.

Followers come with every genre of music, like many have said, not everyone can be an innovater, but for many, it does take time to develop your own style. My early stuff was just stupid bleeps and bloops with wannabe breakcore, because thats what was cool at the time. And i think i can safely say that i have come a long way.
 
I will never get tired of chiptune.

I was just curious to see what other kinds of music you guys listen to.

Some of my favorites are:

At the Drive-in
Ennio Morricone (And other western-style sound tracks)
Mouse on the keys (And other Japanese math bands such as, toe, rega, Lite, exct)
Don Caballero
The mars volta
Job for a cowboy
Jedi mind tricks (And other various underground hip-hop groups/artists)
Venetian Snares
And a bunch of noise artists (like, blue sabbath black cheer, organum, nurse with wound exct)

Those are just a few of bands/artists that i really love/am inspired by.

Good stuff!

Haven't made either yet, still need to record my album (which should be here really soon).

I just need to finish up the album cover and record and it should be good.

Oh yeah and i need to name the songs something other than zonp. tongue

Sorry for the inconvenience...

I'm in Spokane, and i love the idea of a monthly show.

Would love to play sometime/attend all the time. big_smile

I'll shoot you an email here pretty soon.

Awesome!
