I participated for the first time in this year's TRACKERCORPS compilation where the theme was to use public domain film material for samples. It just released, so If you enjoy unhinged, moody, percussion heavy music, you'll enjoy this. #TRACKERCORPS #music

Windows had a lot of nostalgic sounds in it at one time. I took the start up jingle from Windows 2000 and used it to make a chord progression. Then, of course, I mixed in other stuff for fun. #MARU #LSDJ #chiptune #gameboy #music

Drums are one of my favorite instruments, yet I've never played a drum set and I can't really own one because it would drive my family crazy. Instead, I vicariously experience it through others playing covers to soundtracks I like - like this.

My latest Game Boy music album, What's On The Tube? Vol. 1, is out now. This is a compilation of all my previous songs made using commercial/television samples and some newer songs. You can read about it and download it from here: marupanda.art/whatsonthetu... #MARU #LSDJ #gameboy #chiptune #music

A while back @goatistream.bsky.social played through Where's Waldo for his Megamarathon and I got this funny idea while watching. 👽 #MARU #dankart

Nine games isn't enough to list my vast genre of favorite games, but these are definitely some of my top games that molded my interest in certain genres and storytelling styles. #My9Games

I used this loop for a joke-themed song but it's so good I'll probably include a goofy samples-free version on the album as an extra. #MARU #gameboy #lsdj #chiptune #music

About a week ago Indy (www.indyfullstop.com) was streaming a serenade and I commented during one of the songs that involved the word burning that if he started screaming in pain during those parts it would be funnier. He did it, so I sampled them for learning MilkyTracker. 🤪 #MARU #music

I'm working on an album that will include all the songs I've made using samples from commercials. I wanted an excuse to make siren noises in a song and this was perfect. 😎 #MARU #music #LSDJ #gameboy #chiptune

I started playing Wario's Woods again since it's been ages since I played it again and it's still super fun. I'm kind of surprised Nintendo never built upon this and made a newer version with smoother controls. Maybe I should finally learn to program games competently and make a game inspired by it.

I was watching @hungrygoriya.bsky.social play ToeJam & Earl in Panic on Funkotron while fooling around with yo-yo stuff and while doing this I thought my hand moving around looked like ToeJam. 🤪 #MARU #yoyo #yoyotrick

What is that Discord? You're rolling out requiring age verification with an ID or facial recognition next month? Do you think we don't remember the last data breach you had with that? Oh, you don't? I guess it's time for people who want to chat with me to use another app or give me their email.

I received an email about a class action suit against G. Skill for supposedly mislabeling their RAM, was looking at the ridiculous price of RAM now when looking at my previous orders, and all I can think of now is one of the first songs I made in LSDJ inspired by doing a memory test.

I started playing Trials of Mana since the last time I played this was in the early 2000's as the fan translation of Seiken Densetsu 3, which apparently was a ROM hacking marvel but Trials is much better. The graphics and music in this game are still absolutely amazing and gorgeous for a SNES game.

I feel like there's a dust machine somewhere in my house because a full layer of dust settles all over my stuff in a single day and I have an air filter running in my room plus a whole house air filter. Dust still forms on everything again in a few hours after dusting and cleaning everything.

I've been working on some very experimental music for an album and it makes me realize I might be better at sound design than conventional musical composition. I just enjoy mixing weird noises. 🙃 #MARU #LSDJ #gameboy #chiptune #music

I finally uploaded this crazy song to my YouTube. #MARU #chiptune #LSDJ #gameboy #music #meme #slapchop

I PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE MADE THIS EVEN LOUDER BECAUSE IT'S BILLY MAYS, THE CAPS LOCK KING. #MARU #LSDJ #chiptune #music #meme #billymays

It's been a week since I released my latest Game Boy music album, Hitchhiking The Milky Way. If you haven't listened to it yet here's the link to it. 🎶 #MAREU #chiptune #music #LSDJ #gameboy

My new year's resolution is 2560 x 1440 because I bought a QHD monitor.

My dudes, you should give this a listen. Some of these tracks are absolutely insane. 🔊💣🧨💥

I tried Render96ex for the first time on my Anbernic handheld and playing Super Mario 64 in 60FPS with a proper analogue stick feels simultaneously bizarre and amazing.

👽👍 #MARU #yoyo #yoyotrick

My Game Boy music album, Hitchhiking The Milky Way is out now! This collection of groovy music will keep you occupied while you wait for a ride in the vastness of space. marupanda.bandcamp.com/album/hitchh... #MARU #GameBoy #chiptune #music #LSDJ

A friend gifted me their extra copy of Streets of Rage 4 and after playing through it and beating it a few times I can easily say this game is very inferior compared to SoR2 and SoR3. Not using the vertical evasion and giving everyone dashing from SoR3 makes this game feel incredibly clunky.

You might be able to say you're preparing for hibernating as an excuse. 🤪 @blemur.bsky.social

I'm trying to learn how to use Ardour, since I use Linux, and because most of my knowledge with making music is using LMMS and tracker software this feels like playing Tetris to suddenly trying to learn an MMORPG with a ton of menus on screen.

🥚🥚🥚🥞🥞🥞 #MARU #yoyo #yoyotrick

My next album, Hitchhiking The Milky Way, which includes this song and eleven other groovin' dance tunes, will be released soon. It should be out either sometime later this month or the very beginning of next month depending on how long I take making everything ready. 👍

I was contacted through my website by somebody wanting to buy some artwork. I responded asking the usual questions about what subject matter and style they were looking for. I received a response about how they're a professional NFT collector and reseller. Is that even a thing still? 😑

My phone updated to iOS 26 and Apple's Liquid Glass is an entirely obnoxious, resource hogging effect that does not help with any of my productivity. I had to turn on the reduce transparency option just to make things feel smooth again.

The noise channel is fun. #MARU #LSDJ #gameboy #chiptune #music

Looking at the prices of RAM right now I'm so glad I bought 32GB for my upgrading last year and I'm also extremely happy they messed up and sent me two sets meaning I was able to update my sister's PC this year from her 8GB. Getting 64GB of that for around $50 is like robbery compared to now.

I've been working on a song that will be in my next album that has a lot of techno inspired compositions. I was wanting to make something with a lot of arpeggios that were more than three notes with controlled speed and couldn't think of a way until I remembered grooves work in tables. #LSDJ #MARU

You're gonna love my nuts! 🥜 What? Do I make meme music? Nooo, I would never do that. 🤪 #MARU #LSDJ #GameBoy #Chiptune #music #slapchop

If you want to listen to slightly extended song sections of my Hammer Bros. style remixes I made a longer video on YouTube. #MARU #LSDJ #music #chiptune #Nintendo

Sometimes I take a song I'm familiar with, like the Hammer Bros./Battle theme in Super Mario Bros. 3, in this case, and mix it up to try different styles. #MARU #LSDJ #GameBoy #Chiptune #music #Nintendo

A while back @agentannk.bsky.social was playing baseball games. One of them was a Charlie Brown baseball game for Mac, and, of course, whenever I think of Lucy involved in anything it's constant berating.

I made the sketch for this while watching @hungrygoriya.bsky.social play through Bubsy in: The Purrfect Collection and recently finished painting it. Bubsy games are questionably fun to play, but Hungry likes the first game a lot. #MARU #DANKART #Bubsy

The voice synthesizer instrument in LSDJ doesn't usually sound the best, but when you need some gritty, electronic voices for a techno-esque song, it's perfect. #MARU #LSDJ #GameBoy #chiptune #music

There are still free codes left in here for anybody who wants to add my new Game Boy music album to their library. 😎

I was reading through @defensemech.com 's website again, which is where I learned most things with LSDJ, and realized I never tried using the noise channel exclusively as a lead instrument. I ended up making this fun yet obnoxious loop to try it out. #MARU #chiptune #LSDJ #gameboy #music

For anybody who missed it yesterday, my new Game Boy music album, Drink Break Beats, is out now. Listen to it here: marupanda.bandcamp.com/album/drink-... #MARU #chiptune #LSDJ #gameboy #music

My Game Boy breakbeat music album is now released! Listen to it here: marupanda.bandcamp.com/album/drink-...

I'm still preparing my next Game Boy music album, and this is one of the goofier, short songs that will be on it. #MARU #chiptune #gameboy #LSDJ #music

There’s nothing quite as fun as spending your evening having to reinstall your Linux boot because a recent Nvidia driver update broke how the graphics interact and no amount of downgrading is working. 🫠

I tried putting break beats samples into LSDJ and layering them creatively and using the F(WAVE frame/Finetune) command to chop them up at specific points when needed. Threw in some eerie, phasing notes and I think it works out. #MARU #LSDJ #GameBoy #music #chiptune
