Hm, if you mean artists that don't shy away from using effects, samples, full production etc there are quite a few. Henry Homesweet and MisfitChris make really good dance oriented stuff. Psilodump. Uuuuhhh... Ceephax Acid Crew?

Re: Any fans of The Media Show? (4 replies, posted in General Discussion)
WTF is this........ really though what has this got to do with chipmusic at all?
It has chiptunes is every episode and is how I got interested in chip music.
I think he could have specified that they used quite a few tracks from this community (one or two of mine as well). They're nice guys from what I saw in the vids and the comments they left here and 8bc.

Re: lets talk best data compression for the nets (25 replies, posted in Audio Production)
Maybe related: I've made a comparison of low-kbps mp3 encoders here. Note that for high kbps LAME is pretty good, and what I usually use for mp3 encoding. The latest Ogg/Vorbis is superior in quality/size ratio, so I use that for encoding CDs and stuff.
I can see no reason not to use VBR unless LAME's algortihm obviously messes up. But that happened to me only once or twice, ever.
Also:
Don't use 48Khz unless you're working directly to video.

Re: Popularity Contest (208 replies, posted in Bugs and Requests)
I feel without this, without this COMPETITION. we are all going to stick with the music we know. Nothing new is going to cross your ears, at least not from a new artist. We are turning into a circlejerking mess and it is why I suggested this.
I'd argue that a rating system would not change, but increase this effect. That much was evident on 8bc when music views clustered around names that had a high profile.
Battle of the Bits employs an anonymous competitive system which works pretty well, imo.

Btw, if anyone runs into the same problem: Windows of course doesn't allow question marks in file or folder names- it however allows the inverted question mark.

Give me a reason not to close this thread.
Because it may evolve naturally into an EAT_RABBIT thread.
Does anyone here hoard rarities / singles / mixes? His old stuff is really hard to come by.

Well, mainstream media wouldn't care about SUBCULTUREARTIST - NEWFREEJAZZALBUM either unless it had a Justin Bieber cover on it or something.

unoriginal, uninspired work like covers
I still enjoy listening to good covers, as well as making them myself from time to time.
I couldn't care less about Pitchfork or whoever herp-derping over MIDI conversions. I don't even care about people enjoying this stuff- musical quality and popularity and (woah!) having fun listening to something aren't interdependent.
