For not really chiptune but tracked music in general, stuff by lamb is nice and 'emotional'.

And I like cute little teddy by edzes as a song in which you can relate when a bit 'down-ish'. Very cute song.

I always thought the scene was pretty open even though it doesn't look like from outside. Demoparties were and are the main places to learn how stuff is done by the masters themselves. You'd be surprised of how much you can learn at one.

Also, for these guys, back then, with a monitor cartridge, any demo was "open" wink
I guess the only difference now is that with the internet anyone can get the source, not just demoscene people.

Plus Git(hub) is a very awesome way to share projects, source and code in a branche/fork kind of way which makes the structure a lot more comprehensible. ^^

Farbrausch recently released all their stuff as open source lately anyway. I don't know if there was an open source demoscene movement before that, but I'm sure the trend spread after they did.

The trend kind of got set by them yes. And everybody loves it.

Or just have fun making it, and don't really care what people think about it. Does it matter if it gets listened to a lot? Yeah it's fun, does it make making music less fun? Not it doesn't.

I'd do a couple of songs for a split EP with MPT songs. smile

Nice but $35 for an app is a bit much imo.

2 hours, when I was happy with the result, my cart crashed, all data erased and I destroyed the cartridge with a big smile on my face.

Nice. smile

Studying web&mobile engineer. Currently in my third year, i'll get my PhD next year.

While doing a bit of studying I have my own company, I make websites, mostly work together with designers, where they design the actual website, I put it together and make a custom backend.

And when I'm not working I'm playing games on my PS3, just doing some internet stuff, reading books, drinking beer with friends, going to parties and hang with my GF and dog.
