Listening to a brilliant chiptune album.
« on: July 24, 2011, 03:14:46 PM »
It's called Rise of the Obsidian Interstellar by Disasterpeace. I've just stumbled upon it an hour ago and my mind has been obliterated by it's beauty. My only wish is that there was a game to go along with this score.

Anyone able to recommend other good chiptune albums?

Bit Shifter - Life's a bit shifter

Pretty much the only chiptune album you'll ever need. It might be my love for strong warm melodies รก la Gameboy but I think he really sets the bar for the whole genre.

I know everyone knows about Anamanaguchi, but their still pretty awesome.

Otherwise I recently discovered Breakbeat Heartbeat, and they're crazy awesome!

There is also an 8g torrent going around of some various talented groups on thepiratebay for those interested in 'renting'

I hear Insanity has some pretty good chiptunes, lol.

I might be offering up the soundtrack soon on the cheap.  PCe chiptunes are sexy.  They dont have the very typical "done with nerdtracker or a C64" sound.

I have to say, the music in Insanity is awesome. I'd definitely be up for hearing the soundtrack.

By the way, does anyone know a surefire way to extract HES files from a CD-Rom game? From what I hear it's a process that requires a lot of background knowledge about how PCE games work, of which I'm devoid of...I really want to capture some great chiptune tracks on a few games that aren't already available anywhere else.
