Here’s an old WeeklyBeat that made it into one of my albums. Highway 5 is a chill, ethereal house track with a chippy, demoscene vibe. Used a pseudodelay with some oscillator switching in table and a modified pulse width modulated lead. #m8tracker #chiptune youtu.be/8wc54jPZaXE

Halloween eve and we have an announcement, but on who, it's a mystery. You've heard her bleepbloops coming from the shadows. There's lore about the legendary chiptune empire she built but it would be impossible to feel her greatest glitches, unless: Please welcome Muzak Efron to Boston Bitdown!

Hot Ziggity! It’s Gosh Diggity! Chicago’s chiptune astronauts traveling to Boston via rocketship! This midwest kitchen techno trio is chiptune’s gift to the world. Listen to Gosh Diggity’s summer LP, “Good Luck! Have Fun” and buy your early bird 4 day passes to BOSTON BITDOWN 2!

I have been playing around with the AYN Thor for a couple of days now, and I feel it could truly be the perfect handheld for DS emulation, and quite possibly, my favorite Android handheld overall. Here are our impressions so far: steamdeckhq.com/ayn-thor-fir...

Ready for a night ride? Let Snakes take the wheel. This 8-bit synthwave warlock brings out the sexy, brooding, neon to your heart. This Atlanta boy is slithering up to Boston Bitdown equipped with his ruby keytar & jean jacket. Sit back and let the smokey synth take over.

The Miyoo Mini Flip feels like stepping into a time machine. It is basically a clamshell version of the amazing little Miyoo Mini, and it's compatible with OnionOS (microSD cards are swappable between the two). Full review: youtu.be/WYeC5WJv_zg

putting the call out to #chiptune bsky I need your tips on who is actively pushing chiptune forward right now particularly interested in newer / emerging artists, as well as women, LGBTQ+, and BIPOC artists please repost for reach ❤️🙏

An aggressive metal lead guitar patch for M8 Tracker. Wavsynth engine with a little PWM and a lot of chorus. Deep fried with a little POST:AD distortion. The trick here is to add a MULT LFO set to RANDOM with a frequency of one 16th note to create a guitar flatpicking sound in phrase. #m8tracker

My go to pulse width modulation lead patch in the M8 Tracker Wavsynth engine. It’s all about setting an LFO to WARP and the SIZE to maximum for the smoothest PWM. The secret sauce is setting an additional LFO to add some MULT as a little extra bite. From my tune, EMERGENCE (Ratz Mix). #m8tracker

Don’t sleep on the M8 Tracker’s Struck Drum synth, found in the Macrosynth synth engine. With settings like the ones below you can easily play smooth, eerie and nuanced melodies by drawing out the notes of the struck drum and making them sound more like a wind instrument then percussion. #m8tracker

chill M8 Tracker WIP… #m8tracker

Chiptune is and has always been a social, community-oriented scene. Project files and tutorials are shared far and wide to help people learn how to make chiptune using predominately *free* tools made by revered members of our community. Turning your back to that and using AI is anti-social behavior.

There’s another animated kids show I saw called Jungle Junction. It’s about a group of animal/car and truck hybrid creatures that live in a jungle permeated by highways and other naturally occurring transportation infrastructure. The main character is an elephant van. Who comes up with this shit?

I saw a kids animated show called Dinosaur Train where the carnivores and herbivores are all good friends with each other. Instead of hunting other dinos, the carnivores stumble upon and gorge themselves on giant piles of meat left across the landscape for them presumably by Dinosaur God.

It’s Bandcamp Friday again and I have my complete discography at 70% off. My releases come with M8 bundles and LSDJ project files!

getting way ahead of the game by openly announcing my refusal to play the first annual riyadh chiptune festival

A short peek at a new jungle track I’ve been working on for an upcoming M8 Tracker jungle compilation I’m contributing to. Using the Macrosynth’s Bowed synth engine for the melody to create a scratchy cello-like sound. #m8tracker #jungle #drumnbass

Bluesky exclusive

Hard at work on a new jungle track for an upcoming M8 Tracker Jungle Compo. This device is a beast for making drumnbass/jungle music! There are multiple ways to chop breaks and the stepwise control the FX commands afford the user in phrase is liberating. #m8tracker #jungle #drumnbass

Here’s a video of an Analogue Pocket running the ROM that generates random variations of the cover art for my LSDJ EP, “Kardashev’s Brain”. It was coded by my close friend @zevanrosser.bsky.social in gbdk. It generates a bizarre brain blob as well as some alien-like glyphs. #gameboy #gbdk #chiptune

I want to listen to the Nintendo Music App but I can’t get over the fact that Nintendo refuses to credit all the talented musicians and composers who create all this amazing music for the fans and players. Just another way they are completely out of touch with the fan base . #nintendo

Running an old ambient weeklybeat of mine through the new reverb shimmer feature of the latest M8 Tracker firmware v6.2.0. It added a whole new layer to the various elements of the track including the pseudodelay. This new update is fantastic! #m8tracker #ambient #chiptune #chipsky

A while back I made this political lyrics video for my favorite ska punk song. Freeze Up by Operation Ivy was written and recorded in 1989 but has never been more relevant than today. I used modern imagery and video to show how prescient this song was for its time. #skapunk #punk #operationivy

Someone from Hacker News has uploaded a CD-Rip (converted to MP3) of William Gibson's #neuromancer #audiobook read by the man himself to the #internetarchive. Originally released in 1994. https://archive.org/details/william-gibson-neuromancer-abridged

Happy Star Trek Day! #startrek

A few months ago I got my hands on a copy of the 40th Anniversary Special Edition of Neuromancer by William Gibson. My favorite book since I read it when I was 15. Ordered from @foliosociety.bsky.social Hope to get this signed one day. #neuromancer #sciencefiction

The cutest detail I found at Super Nintendo World.

One of these pin-based character boards is how people with Super 8mm film cameras used to make titles for their home movies back in the day. This used to be my grandfather’s.

The only proper way to eat Cheetos...

Here's a photo of how I rigged the Game Boy GoPro timelapses from my Paranoia Soup music video. Good ol' gaff tape saving the day...
