I was curious to see if anyone else is into chiptune , if so which artists?


by definition chiptune is:



it really is interesting music, seeing how it's made and watching live performances of it.

Some really popular chiptune artists are:
Sabrepulse
Henry Homesweet!
pixelh8
Saskrotch


Sabrepulse is by far the most famous.

Babycakes Clothing also uses chip music in their advertisements and on their websites.

While it's not really big in the US yet, it's quite big in Europe and Asia.

Chiptune anyone?

Yes, I love Chiptune. I actually am starting to make Chiptune music for my music project.

But here are the Chiptune Artist I listen to:

Sabrepulse
Henry Homesweet
Bit Shifter
Shirobon
Argent S
Lumineon
Cerebral Scars
Hello Geno
Trashappy
We Are The Future
Pixelh8

And in the Babycakes Clothing video on their myspace, it's Gasping Between Kisses by Henry Homesweet if you wanted to know. They tore it apart though because the full original song is wayyy better. [:

Why did i have the feeling that you listened to chiptune? hahah.


yeah i would totally try and learn to make it if i had the right software but my gosh it looks insanely confusing.
i don't know if i have the patience for that.

Hahaha, I don't know. =P

It's really not hard to make it. You can simply get VST's and put them on FL Studio.

What I have for my music is Gameboy Emulators to run through Nanoloop. [:

even my mom is trying to get me to do it.

maybe i will eventually, but i have other things planned as far as the music scene.

What kind of music are you wanting to make?

well as far as making music, i'd definitely want to be in a band but i'm not really sure that i want to go directly into music.

i want to do something more geared towards promotional.

right now i'm working on starting an organization that provides AIDS awareness through music. and next i'm going to be HOPEFULLY starting a clothing line.

i have big plans, how many of them will actually happen, i'm not sure.

Making music is a whole lot of fun.
I wake up early in the mornings to work on it.
It may be frustrating, but it's worth it.

Like for the AIDS Awareness and stuff, you should raise money for that, too. Like sell your songs on iTunes and SnoCap and donate the money or something.

Clothing lines can be really expensive. I know of some screenprinting places with good deals if you need any. I run a clothing line with my sister and it's a lot of work since we screenprint shirts ourselves and everything.

well good god, you just about do everything don't you?

For the organization i can get funding for it, because it's at the top of my priorities.

the clothing line is something on the side that my friend and i want to start.
it'd be international too because my friend lives in russia so we'd be working from both places.

Haha, I get around. I have a whole lot of side projects. I'm in two solo music projects and 3 collaboration music projects. I also run a record label of my own and help my sister with her clothing line. That's about it. [:

That's good about the funding. Let me know how things go down with that.

Yeah, you guys are better off running a system like my friends did when they had a clothing line. They both made designs, one ordered the shirts and the other one sold them and they split profits. For good screenprinting prices, you should check out Prezisio Screenprinting, don't remember if that's the right name, or GoodFellasMerch.

awesome.

and thanks i'll definitely keep that in mind.
as far as right now, all i'm really doing is attempting so graphic design.

nothing i've really started though. i do promotionals for some record labels.

Well if you need any programs, I can try to get them for you. I get all my stuff for free, like Photoshop cause I cracked it. :D

hmm i think i'm okay, i actually have a way to get the programs i need without spending a fortune.
