this shit is hard, so expressive, lofi enough to allow interpretation, hifi enough to kill it
your vocals are getting so good i want you throwing down accas,
chav chaos, it gives me, you have a signature sound to you, your cadence is spot on, your delivery on time, theres an element i cant describe yet though, something very complicated, favorited.

Definitely one of the best reviews I've gotten, and from a member who inspires me thoroughly, that says a lot! To be told my cadence and delivery is proper means very much to me! I'm not sure if I'll ever do accapellas or not, i gerally prefer to have my vocals in a remix kit setting with the instruments used. Might be worth it for this song I guess. Maybe I'll work on that. Thanks so much for the comment and fave!

You're too kind my friend! You have been a great influence on me recently, your struggles your artistry all of it! I guess you could say I'm trying new things, but in a way I'm getting back to my roots...if I can manage to do both simultaneously then I will feel like I accomplished something. Thank you so much for listening and leaving your views!

Hey great simple words to describe this track! I wanted to express the state of the current "real me" and this is what happened. It's just something I thought people should hear. I'd love to have you do a remix, and have contacted you regarding this. Thanks for listening and everything, it means a lot to me!

That's very kind of you to say! It's a good feeling when lyrics just flow from you without a lot of thought, it's easy to think too much when writing songs. I appreciate you listening and commenting!

This is twisted as f**k mate. The back track is very kind of sonic youth and the vocals add to the rawness of it.
I've no idea how you come up with some of the sounds you use but i seem to always like the ones that you sing on.
I like the synth that comes in at the last third of the track. Reminds me a little of those old video games from back in the 80's.
Nuts and grungy as hell but well worth listening to.
Dig this one mate!!!

Thanks my friend for diving into my newest track! Being compared with sonic youth is pleasing to me, as I've been listening to them for a long time. I guess my best advice about getting sounds is to record everything that makes noise, and then find unusual ways to use that noise. I'm glad this reminds you of old video games, as putting it in the 8 bit genre it probably should do just that. Thanks much for the listen and fave!

Hahh...I've never heard music like this...some kinda alien made for me from the 25th century...and what's this genre?
My eyes are wide opened and my mouth too...:-)
My little girly yelled me: Papa, what's wrong with you?
I went back 3 times to listen it...
Still familiarize with this number but I'm on the right way...
Thanx for this special adventure Spiv...:-)
Best, Danke

I can't express how good your comment makes me feel! Even just the fact that you've never heard music like this, that's so cool! I guess I took advantage of Shan adding the 8 bit chiptune circuit bending genre, and added my strange circuit experiments to the mix. I had several NL #5 apple fritters during the writing of this, I guess it shows. At first I was trying to head in the psy goa direction, but very quickly it changed gears and became like a digitized velvet undergroundish rock jam. Didn't mean to freak out your child...heh. It sounds like you listened enough to get to the surprise at the center. Hope you are having an awesome day, especially since you brightened mine! Thanks much!

Hello ....

Again your particularity and I would say your musical singularity, at hit the bull’s eye (in French this is a phrase that could be translated as "you have reached your goal") and captured the interest of the listener ....
Nothing else to write, I'm listening. d^_^b

This definitely has quite a raw sound which i like. Not really heard much chiptune stuff before but its quite catchy. It sounds like it could be a track for a ps one game or something.
Spivkurl
Spivkurl replied 16th Apr 2014 - 11 years ago
Thanks for your response to my latest work! I'm glad you enjoyed that raw sound, it kind of happened that way without thinking too much. If this reminds you of a PS one soundtrack, I suppose that means it belongs as a chiptune. It was mainly an experiment to put it under this genre, since it new, and because I used a bunch of lo fi circuit bent stuff. I wanted to see how different the listener's list and reviews would be under this genre. Interesting so far... heh. I appreciate you listening!

all i can say about this is that i honestly had a big smile on my face right to there end. I think it is a skill in itself to capture a certain feeling or emotion and this defo cought a happy vibe.
Might just play it again sam.

You seem to have a unique impression of this song, maybe I captured a happy vibe without intending it. That's cool I guess. Thank you so much for listening to this, and for keeping in touch with me lately!

This is an interesting one. It's far more aggressive and raw. I think I can say this is my favorite of yours. And I downloaded your album. (Which I've listened to on several occasions.) The intro is almost misleading. It has an almost whimsical nature until about :10 when you realize this is going to be a darker ride. I like the fact that there's no giant kicks in this. As it is, it's almost mischievous. Big kicks would have just got in the way of all the other elements working together in this.
I've never really delved into the chiptune genre. I've always thought that what I had heard was intriguing, though. I may have to look a little further into it. This one is going in my fave file for sure, man. Nice work.

Take care.
Aaron.

Hello my friend, I value your listen and viewpoints very much! Thank you for downloading my album. The intro is not the only thing about this song that is misleading, be sure of that. It's a very unusual song for me because of the low end (kicks and bass), very incidental. Honestly putting this in the 8-bit genre was mostly an experiment, partly because it's a new genre here on the loop, and partly because of the lo fi circuit bent stuff that drives this song along. If you find any other chiptunes which are any way similar to this, please link me up, I'd be intereted to hear it. Thanks again for listening!

Description : I found this one by the random tracks function for about 6 month ago.

Since I've been producing songs for the 8 bit platform I found this song very interesting.

So I had to ask Jeicee if I could get my 8 bit hands on it just to add a lead track on it. No problem he answered. So here it is.

All credits to Jeicee for the original tune.

Cheers,
Anders

Description : This track does not have any kind of cymbal or percussion because i wanted it to sound as dry and clean as possible.
My first attempt for a 8bit chiptune thing, at least i think its that genre, idk.
Enjoy!

Technically my second track I've uploaded to this site, but the first one was purposefully terrible. I deleted it because I didn't want it taking up my track space, lol. Enjoy

Description : A song I released in 2009 on my album Circle, Full Circle. Definitely a strange one! Has lots of circuit bend sounds! Have fun!

Edit: Since Looperman was kind enough to add an 8 bit chip tune circuit bent genre, I will put this in it since it fits pretty well. Thanks Shan!

This is an 8-bit Chiptune test track. Please do tell me guys what techniques or any formula that i've missed in making these types of Chiptunes since I'll be making a set of these (about 7 or 15). The title of this track will be "Vast World" and will be included in the album "Quest Of Life" which is FAR from done xD

I'm back! My PC is finally fixed after 1 whole month!

Thanks guys and cheers!

Description : I made a wheel of different music genres including games and chiptune etc. Spun it and level game came. Wasnt too hard to make since it pretty much contains a synth bass and and arp + Fx. This sounds like an old game like Bricks Breaker which is a very addicting game to me fsr.

Description : SORRY ABOUT THE INTRO. lol I was practicing risers and just thought that intensity to release was nice. That's def something I could work on is risers.

Hope you like this Chiptune piece. Made with Magical 8 bit Plugin mostly. Highly recommended to anyone looking to compose Chiptune in FL or a DAW.
