When he defeated his game genie in battle, Tommy was rewarded with an item of immeasurable value. Where the genie had been only a moment before, there now sat a new cartridge for his nintendo entertainment system, his parents helped him hook it up. He took this enchanted cartridge and put it into his system. A single message flashed on his screen. PREPARE TO JAM. Not sure what to do, tommy went to his older brother's keyboard and placed his fingers on the keys.....they suddenly started to move and they began playing the themes from his favorite games. And then the magic happened, his nintendo, powered by his new mystical cartridge, started to play along with him. Tommy turned on his tape recorder and the two of them, boy and console, jammed for 40 minutes straight. 20 years later, this recording, now digitally remastered, is available to the public for the first time.

FX4 is a concept album set in the oceans and skies. Its story immediately precedes that of FX3. Unlike the previous albums, which were written as "soundalikes" using sampled chip sounds, FX4 consists of machine code that can run on a real NES system. It was written in Famitracker, available for free at famitracker.com.

The album is free, and I am not expecting or asking for payment, although I appreciate donations — the proceeds will go toward software I need for my one-man indie game project.

The NSF format files are here: http://biglionmusic.com/v-fx4.zip

If you don't have NES transfer hardware, the NSFs can be played using VirtuaNSF http://virtuanes.s1.xrea.com/vnes_dl.php (scroll to the bottom), or dozens of other players for PC, OS X, iPhone, Android, etc.

"This is more of a compilation than an actual album, but this release documents pretty much every finished (or almost finished) 8bit styled composition I wrote after my first 8bit album. There are also a few touch-ups here and there to refresh the tracks that I think needed it! Hope you enjoy listening to it as much I did making it!"

"7bit date: robot love is a collection of chips I began tracking in 2008, with one song reaching as far back as 1998. In 2008, having recently graduated from university, I reexamined my chiptune past and decided to get back in the game. Life carried on, and years later, I remembered my original goal of a new chipdisk release.. Here we are today, 2012!

For 7bit date, I didn't limit myself to traditional chip sounds. I make use of Amiga ST-XX samples in a few tracks — a process which rekindled some of my imagination, as I remembered this or that MOD from back in the day with each Amiga sample I came across. Another characteristic of my chips is to use no external/post-processing effects, just some occasional Schism filters, so the original .IT files will reproduce pretty close to the MP3.

All in all, folks can look forward to a varied collection of chippy goodness: funky, poppy, videogamey, with a splash of reggae and hiphop in a couple tracks"

"This album was recorded in honor of my uncle, David Calhoun, who passed in 2010. It is somewhat of a double EP. A six song suite presented in two versions, one recorded with live instrumentation and one arranged in VRC6 format for the Nintendo Entertainment System / Famicom.

Both sides of this album can be played simultaneously in sync. Very soon I will be releasing an iOS app giving the user the ability to mix each song - channel by channel and on the fly - creating an interactive experience. Imagine turning a dial to transform a live guitar solo into an 8-bit shred-fest, just like on your old NES"

Interesting fact, that I can't access this site from Russia. I get this "Access Denied" message instead. "Preschtale" seems to be also in there.

"Treasure map is a chiptune adventure created with LSDJ. I really wanted to reconnect with my pure chip roots and emulate my favorite chiptunes from my childhood (anything by Tim Follin, virt, TMNT 1-3, Yume Penguin Monogatri, etc). The album contains a bunch of wacky songs chock full of screeching solos, arpeggios and more. I hope you like it"

i guess there'll be a specific team for looking in that subforum x3 i know how zat place works by now

they'll be unreasonably biased against electronic music, since there it's just a term that means "sounds like klaus schulze/actually features klaus schulze"... so I'm glad you mentioned a few influences, heh

Well, let's see if that will help smile

i saw you posted it on progarchives too, I wonder if they'll like it?

No idea. I wonder if they even monitoring this section's threads. Last time I posted there about Electric I got no any response. Maybe I shop drop a line about the album somewhere else?

I found my true north in the land of shining stars,
I'm moving on my way from morning Earth to evening Mars.

And faith in God that helps me keep my inner force.
