Out of the artists I've heard from digging around this site,

Je Mappelle (The J-Pop album he has posted is pretty stellar)

I've already mentioned Saskrotch, his newer stuff is even more impressive to me than the older.

Sabrepulse (DUH!)

Starpilot seems to be pretty rad from what I've heard on the release page.

Minusbaby has some pretty original sounds going for him

J. Arthur Keene also seems to appeal to me

most of those people played at blip festivals.

WHY AM I RESPONDING TO A TROLL?

please discuss this in the other thread I have set up I'm editing my posts out of this thread.

but to answer this, I was speaking of the current festival.

Yeah I don't know why it came out like that. Must have something to so with the dimension limits of the posts.

FWIW: i dont think that asking for advice on finding chiptune music on a chiptune forum is really flame-worthy. it may be difficult for some of the newer members to understand, but there was a lot of chiptune before 4-on-the-floor gameboy unce style invaded everything, and just because he doesn't like some of the artists that you think are godlike doesn't make him an idiot or a troll.

I might recommend early UltrasyD for excellent, highly melodic Amiga tunes:
http://ultrasyd.free.fr/

Jophish has one of my favorite recent releases, based around demoscene aesthetic but with a modern style:
http://www.iimusic.net/catalog/2012/05/jophish-distance

??? is pretty remarkable too, and i dont think i've heard anybody who doesnt like this album:
http://www.iimusic.net/catalog/2011/02/ … ed-is-love

and this is just a total classic:
http://www.iimusic.net/catalog/2011/01/ … terstellar


I love ??? so I'll check out the rest of these artists once I'm done with the ones I'm looking up now.


THIS ROBOCTOPUS GUY IS FUCKING RAD!

I'm researching the one I don't know now,

never been too big of a guch fan, as somebody mentioned earlier about the guitar thing, and I hate to admit this because I'm sure I'll catch Flack for it too, all guitars do sound the same.

listen to more owl city

fucking lol at this whole thread

What exactly is wrong with owl city?

A lot of the songs sound the same as you progress through the discography, but in his first release he's got some pretty solid work, albeit most of it is just shitty postal service rip offs

I couldn't give two shits about what you think about the chip scene.
I just think it's actually the dumbest thing that you're coming here and posting the way you are.
Like you keep saying "there's more than one sound chip" etc have you even looked on your own for music you like? there is so much fucking music out there. You're acting like the only thing you can listen to is squarewave game boy music.

Like seriously just use your fucking brain for a bit before you decide to post something

I actually don't think that's what I'm acting like but you're entitled to your opinion,

I'm simple stating I'd like to hear a wider variety of chipmusic

and since this is chipmusic.org

I figured this would be a good place to directly ask the locals.

Then why didn't you like TreyFrey?

Like I said I enjoy a couple of tracks here and there, but I'm not going to lose my mind over it, or listen to an entire album,

again no offense but I feel the same about your music, a couple of tracks are fine in moderation, but I couldn't sit an enjoy a full album listen at once.

Ok, in light of being reminded that my personal rules about being a dick on this site have expired i'm gonna lay down some real shit

The way you are presenting yourself makes you look like a literal retard. You ask for melodic chiptune, you get melodic chiptune, you complain that it's too much like chiptune.

Now people say, go listen to some other shit and you're like Oh I want to hear stuff that sounds like original chip music.

You are really either just one of the saddest most bored people on the internet with nothing to do but troll people on a specialty music forum at 1 in the morning, or you're actually just one of the dumbest people capable of posting to an internet forum.

Like this is actually hilariously dumb. there is literally no continuity from one post to the next except that you keep disregarding what people are saying and something about "melodies." Seriously, just shut the fuck up and actually listen to some music before you say something that actually betrays how much of an idiot you actually are.

God I fucking hate people.
dixls irl

I fail to see how I am contradicting myself like you present me to be in this argument.

I think you are just a little upset by my reaction to the general chip scene as it is,

I enjoy chipmusic and the sounds available from all the different varieties of chip out there, but there is more than one sound chip in the universe.

That's funny because Magma Mountain is technically an unce track.


When I say unce, I mean things like 180BPM unce

srs, someone go get saskrotch, he'd have a field day in this thread

I bought a couple of his CD's back in '08-'09 he made some nice sounding tunes.

I just don't want to hear the same unce unce unce unce unce kick drum with the same 5 notes repeating for 6 minutes.

I don't think that's such a bad thing to ask for.

If you want chiptune with more focus on mainstream electronics, go listen to mainstream Electronica with some chiptune elements. As far as melody goes, chip seems more centered around melody. And there are sooo many artists that prove this.
