Welcome to CM.O! (Introduction Thread) (Page 5 of 43)

But you've been member for more than six months. People will be confused as hell.

OK FINE! The problem now is that I'll get weekly messages from people who just realized they used the wrong capitalization in their name.

Hello everybody!

My name is Carlos and I am a musician from Argentina. I play different instruments, mainly alto saxophone and guitar. I love very different kinds of music.

You can here music (not chip) made by me following the links:

The first one is mainly blues-rock, the other three ones are experimental. You can donwload them for free.

Though I heard chip music when I was a teen and had my Commodore 64 (yes, I´m that old!) I´m novice in this field. At that time I found some interesting music software like Kawasaki Rhythm Rocker and Kawasaki Synthesizer. However I didn´t learned to make music with my computer when I was younger. I also have in my memory the music of a game I used to play "Aztec Challenge", that music was great.
Recently, thanks to internet, I begun to found new music made by artists nowadays catching the spirit of those days.
So I decided to join this forum to learn more about it.
I have few experience composing chiptunes, I made a piece with TFM Music Maker and also recorded a jam with the sequencer of the game boy camera plus alto sax and electric bass (wich is not really a chiptune). I´m working on some other things but I´m  kind of cheating here as I´m using samples created with vintage computers emulators and a modern score editor, as it is easier for me to write in a partiture than to write in a tracker. But nothing more than these for now.
So I hope that joining this place will be a learning experience for me.

Hello everybody, I'm Christian from Italy and i start play chipmusic this year. I play guitar since I'm 15 (now I'm an old 31 guy...) and occasionally play drums and bass guitar. I love electronic music & noises and i began with synthesizers like monotribe and leploop. When I discovered chipmusic i just bought one DMG and a GBA sp and nanoloop 1.3-1.6-2.5 then start having fun! I've also found this forum that gives me a lot of good informations and so I decide to join it.
P.S. sorry for my poor english

hey my name a Mark and i recently started using KurKami as my nickname (i misspelled KuroKami as ign name once and it kinda sticked) i'm currently 19 years old

i've been playing classical music as a child (first accordeon then Piano) and started composing on my 12th or something (shitty stuff of course ) then as i grow older i started listening hardcore and later different kind of music (dubstep, drum and bass, idm, Nu Jazz, metal, modrern classical, chiptune, 8bit and lots of stuff in between) 

the first chiptune alike song i heard was when my brother made me listen to Slagsmalsklubben witch i instantly loved. Then a year later someone said hey you should listen to unicron kid so i did. via via via i then found Henry Home sweet and fell completely in love with the genre.

By change i stumbled on a stumbled on a song from him made in Famitracker with the file in it. After many failed attempts of finding a music system i understood (as i was used to classical notation that was hard) i finally found something i liked to use with a professional example. since then i'm making tracks when i feel like it

I mainly use a very chaotic style of composing as i randomly switch between parts and like achromatic music very much but lately i'm trying to make that less.

TO LAZY TO READ
i'm KurKami and i like chaos

Greetings,

My name is T, and I've been an alcoholic for three years.

Really though, my name is Cameron, and I'm an Austin native who's been into the chip/demoscene community for a few years now. I believe my first big experience was Datapop 2009 during SXSW? Man, it's been a while…

Anyway, I've been an avid listener for years, but just recently committed enough to buy dedicated hardware (flash carts), and start refurbishing my equipment—I bought a bunch of broken DMGs on clearance over the years and I've just about finished repairing most of them. I've never felt adequate as a musician, and it's actually a huge personal insecurity I'll have to deal with sooner or later—that's why it's taken me so long to get this involved. I'm a lot better with computers and electronics than I am with music, so maybe I can overcompensate my way into musicianship.

The Austin scene is small now, and mostly overlaps with our larger noise music scene. Hopefully I can reacquaint myself with the people I've met over the years (or you lovely new people) and we can start putting together dedicated chip shows again.

Hey, I'm Alex!

I'm one of (I believe, and for the record would love to be wrong) two chip artists in Lexington, KY.  If you have trouble distinguishing us, Solarbear has the better facial fuzz.

I've been chipin for about 2 years now, and I sing and play guitar over it.  Shamelessly bitpop.

I've been rockin my completely stock PiL yellow DMG for way to long, and will beg for help while I try to make it what I want it to be.

You can find me at these places if you want to listen to me
