I could go for that. I could even send you a totally new song...

I used KORG iElectribe and KORG iMS-20 for this EP:

both are excellent apps and provide a lot of value for $10 or less.

I also use my iPad when I DJ with the TouchOSC app (interfacing with Traktor Pro on my Macbook).

I have played with some other music apps but these are the only ones I've actually recorded with.

I think your new name should be "No Further Questions"

I just want to say that demarko does a really good job of this, and I wish we had more people writing stuff like this about chip releases:

I wouldn't mind doing reviews of chip-dance music (that's all I'm really qualified to speak about) but in a small scene no one wants to be the guy that bashed that one release everyone likes. There's a reason artists are not reviewers. You need reviewers that aren't trying to get people to like them in the scene.

This thread is the same old news really... if you listen to Black Eyed Peas, Calvin Harris, David Guetta, etc. it's all chip all the time. These are top 10 hits, sometimes even #1s. It's not hard to imagine that the same waveforms we all love so much would have mainstream appeal. These days if you are running any kind of synthesis software in the studio, you can make these sounds.

I think the real separation between mainstream electronic music and chip music is the drums. Sometimes the bass too, but mostly the drums. That's why the most successful acts combine gameboys with a real drum set, or do some kinda fakebit setup with drum machines or drum samples. It's the one thing your average chip synth can't do well on its own.

And I'm pretty sure it won't be happening next year... didn't the venue cancel it indefinitely for some reason?

I know it's a bit early to ask, but I want to go to SXSW next year (it will be my first time) and I am wondering if there are any chip events going on during that time or if any chip artists have shows / slots lined up. What's the story?

Can we send you our own songs?

Nice! Something to look forward to. I hope the cover art for the album will be better though smile
