Do you know if any of these are done on original lo-fi hardware? This one sounds authentic!
Avatar 3:27pm
Cheyenne:

This guy, 505, specialized in Atari chiptunes so I'm guessing yes - but I'm sure quite a few use synthesized/sampled sounds.

herrprof:

@webhamster - lots of it is! Goto80 does a lot of his music on the commodore 64 for example. There are a bunch of modern tools that lets you sound authentic using plugins like chipsounds, or programs that lets you work on a modern computer but render to something that can play on vintage hardware like famitracker.

@herrprof that is super interesting! thank you for sharing

Funny stuff this chipmunk music.

The restricted capability of the SID chip is akin to strictures on poetry, like sonnets and haiku.

..but strangely hypnotic.

Cheyenne:

I think it's amazing how much emotion and depth can be conveyed with such a limited palette of sound.

also makes you really learn your instrument! :D

northguineahills:

Thanks Cheyenne! One of my old good friends, Glomag, is a pioneer of the old chiptune genre. I know either you or someone else on the GTDS stream played him and posted a link to his latest album. (I've been out of touch since leaving NYC).
