awesome cool release, and glad to see discussion of SND; some great links here in this thread!

JM, where about in the UK are you? Could you tell us a little more about the tools / processes used to make
§ / section? How the hell is one meant to say your artist name? "3 rectangles of prgressively dense dot pattern" ? big_smile big_smile

Im in hampshire. All i used is an amiga 1200 with octamed pro v5 running through a really shitty mixer. I don't want to give away any processes. Those are trade secrets wink. '3 rectangles of prgressively dense dot pattern' is cool but otherwise go for 176177178 as those are the numbers that represent the alt symbols. peace

Aye its amazingly phat. I think it can make people feel a bit awkward and uncomfortable without a regular 4/4 and 3/3 rhythm. Don't me wrong i love a lot of techno and stuff. I just think the 'wierdness' needs more love on the chipscene. It seems more than a little safe at times.

Yeah SND rule. Some of his stuff is definatley a bit 'special' and you have to be in the right zone for your brain to absorb it. Some of it is far more dancable like 'Sentielle Objectif Actualité'. Really loving his 'Sensate Focus' EPs as well. Really cheesey but phat.

I listen to shitloads of raster noton like stuff and although i love it i agree that somtimes its seems far too clean. I'm currently binge listening to Mark Fell at the moment. that dude is awsome.

No worrys i was not taking offence, more just trying to provide the context of the music. I have done stuff that perhaps has these more dynamic elements (http://alonetone.com/jossmanley/playlists/amiga-dispair) and some stuff that has far less of them. I like to bounce between the complex and the almost nonexistanly minimal and this is caught somwhere inbetween. Lets just say this is part of a process of deconstruction and reconstruction. Also i should mention that these are 100% improvised. No elements were specificly placed. Kind of like creating a living breathing entity that just does its own thing. Peace indeed.

Loads of people are producing 'chipmusic' that has absolutley nothing to do with retro soundchips. Chiptune is whatever the hell you want it to be.

Glad you kind of enjoyed it. I have intentionally avoided the elements that you are describing and am prefering to to focus on subtle details in rhythm. Ive been listening to a lot of Gábor Lázár (https://soundcloud.com/gaborlazar) kind of stuff recently. I think its good to break away from the pop/chipmusic cliches once in a while and let the machines and the universe do the talking. I have very little to with the final outcome. The amiga controls me rather than the amiga being my bitch.
