Oh lol. It's the standard reaction to chip stuff though, or at least it is here, I always get something along the lines of "sounds like mario music"

John Cage has a quote about doing something repeatedly until you don't find it boring anymore. A teacher of mine warned that looping on the sequencer is like this, so it is better to record to tape or write on paper than to hear things repeating until you think your riff is good just because you don't remember what anything else sounds like.
Therefore, when you work on a piece until it grows better, it is not a nostalgia effect, unless you haven't done anything to improve the song. For me, especially in chipmusic when working in a strict format, it is more like sculpting.
If I end up just listening to a track on loop for ages, and I don't make any changes because I think it's good, I realize that I'm probably just used to the way it sounds, and that the way it sounds, may not be good. I'll often just go and listen to some other music, be it chiptune or anything else that I like, then come back to my song, and re-listen to see if I can improve it, or if I'm genuinely happy with it.

so i made a tune on lsdj on my wii homebrew emulator. I cannot seem to find the right one, only the autosave is there.
Don't know exactly, but if you search the SD for .sav files, then you should be able to find it. If you didn't actually save in LSDJ, and only used the emulator's save feature, than that may be why.

Re: What happened to the musician ______? (118 replies, posted in General Discussion)
There's only really two people I want to know what happened to them, sserrac and wayne1991. There were others that I wanted to know what happened to them (PixyJunket and tacticalbread) but it turned out both of them just stopped making music. It was nice to find out that tacticalbread is still alive, and hadn't disappeared of the face of the internet. I only found this song by accident, glad I did.

It does, but maybe they want to play other stuff inverted or whatever.

Are you planning on painting the white keys? I don't really see them fitting as well if they stay white/grey.

Amidst being incredibly poor, and unable to purchase the needed hardware for my keyboard (which will be rectified this evening) I came up with another amazing/weird/stupid idea.
I like to think of it as the "All-of-the-Mods Boy"It's just some stacked up plastic and loose knobs right now (I realize there's plenty of switches and knobs and shit that will need to be included) but I really like the concept. It's thin enough to hold and manipulate, but big enough to fit (essentially) every possible mod you'd want.
Discuss.
Dude, I love you, you think of some of the most amazing shit. The idea sounds interesting, and I can't wait to see what you do with it.

Re: Legend of Zelda Documentary! (3 replies, posted in General Discussion)
This seems like a pretty cool idea to be honest, I may donate a little towards it. I do think that you saying the mlp kickstarter is just plain wrong is a little rude, I'm by no means a fan of the show, but it's silly to mock people over a cartoon they like. And we have at least one member here who likes the show.
