Re: Re: Limitation (189 replies, posted in General Discussion)
The fact is, the chipmusic and module music scenes came directly from early hacker and programmer culture.
It certainly makes sense to me that our current scene would have a rift between those who like to use the power of modern technology and those who like to work within limitations and push their hardware to the edge.
Personally I see merit in both.

Sorry, I forgot that chiptune music is all about semantics.

I have a parallel port zip drive (and disks) I'm not using. If you decide to go that route I could give it to you for the cost of shipping.

"You're the one who always listens to that macintosh music, right?"
"It's like mario on shrooms, except mario is a plumber so he's not made out for harsh drugs like that and he's having a bad trip."
"Fucking terrible."
Generally though, most people I expose to chipmusic like it, or at least understand it as a genre.

Re: Live Heosphoros Stream (32 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Live streams are awesome as long as you can get the audio setup right. I'll watch a blurry shot from a bad angle as long as the audio is properly audible. However, it doesn't matter how good the shot looks if the audio is really crummy.
I'm not too picky, either, I don't need FLAC quality or anything, just something that doesn't distort every time there's a kick drum.

Re: LSDJ Cart RIP in strange way ? (13 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)
It's quite possible that the battery came unseated, or that the power switching (from game boy power to battery power or vice versa) caused the wipe. If either of those are the case, make sure the battery is fitted properly but you should probably be fine using the cart again. Just make sure you always back up.
