I made an LSDJ rap album some years back and I've started another recently and realised I've not really heard too much chiptune rap. If anyone knows any rap songs/EPs/LPs that are made with real chip I'd really appreciate some links to listen to

Bonus points if it's LSDJ

Hello! After 3 years of work, I've finally released my biggest project yet; Sonic Aeons, a 24 track love letter to the Mega Drive and the Sonic series. I hope you all enjoy!

Hi! I'm interested in making music for my videogames down the road. I tried to make a "nice, energetic town" vibes tune in here. Any feedback? Anything good/to work on?

Trying to get a dpcm file but it's in fti instead of dcm or wav, also i'm on mobile so I can't use famitracker, only an alternative like famistudio (which for some reason isn't opening any of the files I have)

I want to go to the Boston BitDown, a chiptune/digital fusion festival, in March this year. My parents are paying for me, but they have safety concerns. I brought up that there would be a rave, and now they are convinced the whole event could be a rave and are against me going. I plan to steer clear of the rave because I don't get involved with drugs, but would there be the same risks with the regular live chiptune performances as there would be at a rave(people spiking drinks with hallucinogens, out of control people)? Or would it be the same level of risk as at a non-chiptune concert?

Hey all,

I kind of fell into this by accident while working on a NES themed project and not being able to find the music I needed so I decided to do it myself. I realize Famitracker will give me the most authentic experience, but as a classically trained musician, a DAW made the most sense to me as far actual track assembly in my brain. I’m currently using GarageBand with SquareSynth2 as an extension for creating the actual sounds. I have a pretty good grasp of NES sound structure as far as 2 squares, a volumeless triangle and (Edit) noise channel and creating basic NES “correct” voices. SquareSynth2 comes with lots of presets, I’m just not finding the percussion sounds I’m looking for that I know exists because I can hear them in soundtracks. I’m curious what oscillator variables I actually manipulate with the Edit: noise channel (not DPCM) to get it to sound more like a snare vs kick vs rimshot other than the actual pitch. I’m trying to arrange school fight songs, so the drums are a big piece of the puzzle and I feel like the drum sounds I’ve come up with are kind of bland compared to what I’ve heard other places.

And then one other question was how I would manipulate a normal audio clip to sound like a DPCM sample in an NES game.

Greetings once more, my brethren in chiptune! If you have not seen, I've lately been hosting monthly chiptune contest on this subreddit, each with a theme and two weeks to submit. This month, our theme was "Snail," because I couldn't come up with anything better. Several composers made songs to go with this there, and it is now time to vote! Listen to them all below:

MouseWorks - This Small Life Moves Slowly "We inch forward day by day creeping toward a triumphant journey"

ZookeepergameDeep482 - Turbo Snail in Mario world "FL Studio Mobile chiptune arrangement. 'Youcut' editor used to animate Mario snail platform style video, combined with FLMobile screen capture and audio track"

P CREMA - LLLL "LLLL is the sound I make in my haed when I think about snails because I LOATHE THEM. Done in under 1 hour this morning because as usual I wait for the very last minute and therefore not polished at all. Real hardware Amiga 600 (A1200 is being fixed as routine maintenance) + ProTracker 2.3 and a useless intro played over the live recording on a pocket Korg Delay Monotron."

Charlie Queen - Frogbopper - A Snail Tale "Play the Frogbopper Gameboy Color game I made to go with the song here - https://chopshoprpg.itch.io/frogbopper " (hats off to this guy for actually making a game! Wow.)

Now, here's how voting will work. You can vote for your favorite, which will recieve 3 points, your second favorite, which will receive 2, and your third favorite, which will receive 1. Vote based on which song you like best and which you think fits the theme best. Voting will last one week, and I'll post results on Sunday, February 2nd! Vote below:

Vote for your favorite

Vote for your second favorite

...And other than that, there's not much else to say! Thank you all so much for composing and submitting - this was as always a wonderful contest. In the meantime, check out these goodies:

I've seen time to time people do cool things on the POKEY. Having things like PCM, PWM, and Sawtooth, and Triangle (probably). I wanna know how to do that on Furnace Tracker.
