If you can transcribe the instruments and tables for any of the sounds you use that would be AMASING! I am obviously very new to this, and need to learn as much as possible. Thanks to everybody for helping me out with this.

the problem I ahve with chip metal and black metal in general is that if the hits arent BIG it sounds really dumb. Its like a tiny tasmanian devil.

This might give you inspiration on "feel", having vocals or really any additional elements is a big plus. Specifically check out "Bloodstep" and "Not Meant To Be".

Yeah, my buddy and I make black metal & brutal death metal using LSDJ (sometimes Korg's M01 instead) and his vocals.
I use sample kits for drums, and the pulses for errthing else. Noise is for dummies.
We don't have much recorded right now, but we have a couple EPs planned once he gets out of jail later this year.
Been looking forward to that for a while!

Vileplume, maybe?
I think he pretty much succeeded on making metal with a chiptune device.

Also, blast beats and tremolo picking. Seriously, it's not that hard.

Is it done with sampled kits or is it all noise snares/hihats and pulse kicks (I can't really tell)?i couldn't say for sure but i do believe danimal heavily favours WAV kicks. it sounds like in that particular song he programs them to start at a higher note than what most people do, in order to give it an audible squeak. also, i believe there are some parts in the song where the bass tonality is implied through the harmony, but not actually played, allowing more room for percussive stuff.
if you buy that album you'll get access to the SAVs in the download, so you can find out for yourself.
yup wav kicks. For this track in particular I used a "shorter" kick (less ticks than I usually do), there isn't as much bass to it but it's a lot tighter for the fast stuff.
You can get away with sneaking bass notes in between the kicks since kicks take such a precedence in heavy music. There's definitely one part of the song where I lazily transposed the kick/bass for a chord change and you can hear the tonality of the kick changing. I usually never do that, but I was trying to economize channels and never fixed it.

Wowholyshit, those vileplume songs are pretty much EXACTLY what I'd like to do, nothing cute or catchy. How to do it? Like I've previously said, I'm pretty new at this, and I'm looking for advice and inspiration.
A Burzum compilation, or just a random black/extreme metal compilation would be pretty sweet. Any netlabel guys wanna do it?

I think he was just a nerd playing with sticks and wanking over lord of the rings books when he started Burzum. Who knows.
Once he was in prison and knocking about with skinheads of course i lost all respect for the cockhead and thankfully all his musical and literacy output since then has been utter shite.
