I made this a couple of months ago, but didn't really have a proper chiptune outlet to get decent opinions from. This is literally the first song I've done so be kind. I'm using LSDJ, completely raw, so just the one copy, and it's done through an emulator (I don't yet have a cartridge to load it on to, but I should be getting one soon). So, urm yeah. Let me know where I'm going wrong (as I probably am) and hopefully how to put it right.

Thanks in advance

EDIT forgot to say, there's a lot of hissy crap at the start and end that I haven't bothered with getting rid of, as I've been quite busy, and I wasn't really planning on doing anything with this track, it was more of a test than anything. Also I feel that the second half is a lot stronger than the first, but I guess I want your opinion on that more than mine.

I'm like 2 and a half, maybe three hour drive from Leicester I'm afraid, less on the train, but you'd have a job getting back that night, you'd need a hotel or something.

Where abouts in the uk are you looking at going to? Where I live there's a monthly 8 bit club night, though due to the clientele there doesn't tend to be much chip tune anymore, just generally geeky tunes like anime theme songs that the local students identify with. Lately there's been some live chip tune, but from what I've been hearing, so many people don't like it that the guy might not bother forking out for it anymore.

I've been wondering about this, as if I ever play live, I don't want that awful distortion coming through. I've tried recording through emulation and so far it hasn't changed a thing.

Awesome! You just gained a fan.

Hi, I'm Hilly, I'm based in the UK. I've been into chiptune a couple of years, but never really looked into it much other than what I happened to hear, until the last few months. I've started playing around with LSDJ over the summer. I don't think I'm any good, but I never do with anything. I guess if I get the courage to show you guys any of it, you can be the judge. I hope to see a lot of you guys in the coming months.
