Use the notes from The Petshop Boys - Go west, that'll surely give you an original chiptune song.

Thanks dudes, all this info is really helpful (when i understand what youre talking about)
Ill try famitracker and try to get my head around it
With trackers, I've heard that composing music on them isn't like writing sheet music etc. but it uses hexidecimal characters. I (sort of) know what that is, but whats the relationship between notes and hexidecimal characters?
Actually that's probably something I should mess around with myself...I don't intend to piss people off by asking for help, I understand that chiptune emerged from a very DIY scene but for new comers to the scene (like me) its a bit confusing if you've never really been exposed to the 'chiptune making scene'
Well, in Modplug a C note on the fifth octave is written like C 5. C as note, 5 as octave.
For instrument use you can use the hexidecimal characters. For example the 11th instrument is written as B instead of 11.

Re: Making Chiptune songs (84 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Learning to work with a tracker is probably a good step. That'll give you the opportunity to expand the 'band' horizon using for example an Atari, Amiga or Gameboy. Getting to know a tracker is probably done best with downloading Milkytracker (OSX/Win) or Modplug Tracker (Win). Download a few modules from this website or for example modland and load them in. Try to understand the structure and make something with the samples of the songs you downloaded. Once you know the structure of the program and understand how a tracker works in general, it is easy to work with other trackers and/or machines.
Most trackers like Protracker (Amiga), Musicmon or MaxYMiser (Atari) or LSDj (Gameboy) are a bit harder to learn at first, so it's best to learn an 'easier' to understand (and to work with) tracker on PC. Once you know the drill learning to work with trackers on other machines is pretty easy.

I have one game finished, and I definitely dont do kilo $.. yetIf I fail to find a composer.. I'll do the tracks myself, and this looks like a nice chance to get into chiptuning
I hope I didn't sound rude or something
this was just an offer..so 20%
say if we sell it for 300$ you get 60, etc
and you also get 20% from all sitelocks we sell laterbut I Need tracks that I like
syncamore your tracks were 3/5
in my personal opinion
I tried it and making more than 20$ wasn't that hard at all.
