Mr. invaderbacca just shot me a link to this, and I have to convey how impressed and sincerely reinspired I am by this... jeeez! I've been slacking on the hunt for another MIDINES cart, but this seems like the direction I should head in instead. Seriously, thank you to everyone that puts in such amazing effort to develop these things! :-)

Thank you sirs - I gotta pay more attention to salsa dancers when they appear... I don't remember that one little bit!

I thought I had posted this at chipmusic already, but apparently not - thanks to everyone that I've been involved with over the past year with shows, albums, awesome stuff happening. It's my motivation to keep up the craziness!

Hi everyone,

I’m beyond excited to announce that my second album, INFINITE, is now available for purchase/download at my Bandcamp site. It’s a collection of songs I wrote between 2008-2010, with a general theme of how absolutely incredible the entire Universe is and how much fun you should have in it. The CD is $6 which gets you the Bandcamp download for free as well, but there are also set-your-own-price and free download options. I appreciate all of the support I’ve received since I started this little adventure, and all the new friends I’ve made as a result - you guys are the only reason I could ever keep this going!

Cheers,
-Chris

Coming in here to evangelize for Kunaki, I was already taken in by the low pricing and wasn't even aware of how simple the whole process is. Had low expectations for the album art, but it came out just as good as Reverbnation which was charging me upwards of $5.30/disc with shipping. Kunaki is it for me from now on!

Did Zen Albatross Josh have his presentation handy for that one? It's really accessible and I think people got a lot out of it at PAX East.

So I just woke up for the day, and instead of being all "ugh errr gotta do some work" I was like "oh man, it's SHOW DAY!"

Much, much better scenario to wake up to. Can't wait, hope to see some of yous down there!

As a matter of curiosity, how often do you all do shows in that area? I'm going to college there and want to get a heads up on all the musical stuff going down.

We normally manage one every month or two in the city, with a few others in cities/towns outside of Boston and the surrounding area. Definitely keep in touch, you can hit me at [email protected] with your contact info if you want to stay in the loop! :-D

Thanks EVERYBODY, that was the most blastiest fun show ever.

I'm heavily disappointed that this awesome show won't happen, but I'm equal parts happy that nobody got screwed because of this...

...nobody got screwed, right?

Why are chiptune artists so goddamn butthurt all the time?

Please tell me things are usually different in person at the actual chip shows.

They are, but I've seen some awkwardly hostile tone coming from all sides and it's really putting me off... it'd be nicer if people were a bit less reactive and a lot more diplomatic.

Trivia: I just remembered that Roadblasters doesn't even have any music aside from the title/menu, haha

When I have a limited setup slot, I set up somewhere off to the side ahead of time.

Guys,
As a scene, we will never be able to evolve if every single step of the way someone is over analyzing every detail of every project that is thrown in the open. We must keep an open mind. Specially when we are trying to expand.

This - but yeah, the graphically inclined should start submitting posters because I know there are some awesome artists out there. I'll start messing with one if I get time on my plane trip next Monday.
