(Sorry If I should be in Chat threads, please transfer me) A quick overview on chiptunes/chip music. [QUOTE]A chiptune, also known as chip music, is synthesized electronic music often produced with the sound chips of vintage computers and video game consoles, as well as with other methods such as emulation. In the early 1980s, personal computers became cheaper and more accessible than they had previously been. This led to a proliferation of out-dated personal computers and game consoles that had been abandoned by consumers as they upgraded to newer generations of these platforms. They were in low demand by consumers as a whole, and not difficult to find, making them a highly-accessible and affordable method of creating sound or art. {Source : [B]Wikipedia[/B]}[/QUOTE] Thread Music © FearofDark [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvn3baXqtkA[/media] Chiptune sub genres - KeygenMusic, Famitracker/MilkyTracker compositions, Video Game music from the Nes Era, and mostly anything including music waves. (Square, Triangle, etc..) Now, have a grand ol' time. Post tunes you like, say what you listen to, what artist you like or just talk about chiptunes in general.
This should probably be over in the music section for chiptune discussion. If this is a thread about show casing Facepunch created content, it should be in here.
Yeah, it probably should. I totally forgot about the other Music sub forum, and just posted here so people could post their chiptunes as well... Mod? Please transfer this thread?
