  4. Sparked by a question @c_reider asked about performances going wrong, after my "Gameboy John” disaster where I lost a track in LSDJ just before a performance, I wrote about a season of gigs where there was always something that went wrong, and a lesson, but also a good thing.

    dead batteries, one monitor between two performers, an erased track, a fuse blowing twice, communication issues...

    5 gigs. Honest, hopeful, no triumph story. Please enjoy reading and check out the images, excerpts and videos from the performances I included in the blog post:

    Still wondering: many instruments and tools, versatile or just scattered?

  5. It's that time again! Chipspace, the only stage at MAGFest dedicated to chiptune music is welcoming chiptune artists back to MAGFest to be featured acts! Details in the link below from the official MAGFest account

    bsky.app/profile/magfest.org/p

    I am not putting the google form link here because I recognize that an unprompted google link from someone, EVEN IF YOU TRUST ME, can be suspicious. We're soft launching and hoping to get the application popped into MAGFest's official site soon.

  6. Risa, LSDj style tracker for NES is publicly available! risa.laamaa.fi/
    @laamaa coded it all, and me alongside some other skilled chipsters made lots of suggestions and bug reports to make it as it is now!

    Check out the demo tune I made using Risa's 4X tempo, basically overclocking the 2A03!

  7. It went well! Friday night on Thames:

    My live improv set was on a boat as part of NAUS #2, an intimate live electronics night curated by Stephen Shiell as part of his residency on board. Two others on the bill amazed me: Tom Hirst playing his self-built synth modules very smoothly! and Mohammed Rowe with feedbacky textures and transients using Max!

    I was the final one. A classic: Mid-set my GameBoy running LSDJ tracker ran out of battery! But I spontaneously switched to SameBoy LSDJ emulator alongside my Cardinal patch and it was OK to keep improvising. Some of the audience sat around on the floor to see things happen up close, which I liked. I definitely was not sending emails from the stage :D

    A proper reflective writing with full sounds and credits is on its way on my new blog elifyalvac.com/blog

    But for now, two mini excerpts merged in this clip: Cardinal and LSDJ.

    Thank you @dreamer and @falktx - Cardinal live first time on a boat on the Thames worked out! And thanks again @mosgaard for recommendations!

  8. Lovely instrument! Gameboy. This time running an LSDJ tracker in a non-emulator context. Love the crunchy rough sounds in the making enjoying how the commands and values generate fun results.

    Just 4 channels: 2 pulse waves, 1 wave and a noise channel. Simple, portable in look but it has much inside going beyond nostalgia.

    It gave me so much perspective, including smoothening my introduction to Renoise back in the day when I wanted to explore it as I just love learning and playing with a wide range of tools when I can, not just for teaching.

    Great to revisit after writing so much about it in thesis context years ago.

    And I would suggest you follow @defensem3ch’s work for some of the best chiptunes and learning!

  9. Figure 0C: Someone who is obsessed with the Retrig command in LSDJ’s noise channel. I am not sure if that’s what the mighty @defensem3ch meant with “the joys of noise” hehe

  10. Busy times… And then I went onto running the 2nd leg of a session on chip music, trackers, and demoscene. Today it was on OctaMED Amiga tracker and Akai sampler. Courtesy of Bizzy B/Brain Records an Equinox/Scientific Wax— underrepresented demoscene figures—haven’t seen them mentioned in journals… it was an attempt to take part in the efforts to give them recognition in my very own way

    On another note I have not been very up to date with my lsdj and renoise jams, I am using other tools more actively, even after writing so much about them back in 2019 but I hope to present some of my 4-bit setup here. Or I may not. Who knows… I wonder if there are people who use these things in fediverse, in any style of music. I know some and I would be keen to find out more.

  11. It's bandcamp friday! I haven't uploaded anything new recently, but if you didn't check out my overclocked LSDj/Gameboy bangers, or if you just wanna support my zealotish obsessions, feel free to boost this post or get an album or few (They're all "pay what you want" anyways)

    I will be boosting few good people around me today who I'd recommend you all to support or check out!

  12. One thing I need to remind myself is that even though #pico8 has 4 channels for sounds I should try and keep one channel open for sound effects. Otherwise you get random events of music cutting out while playing a sound effect.

  13. I can barely lift my arms from the day's work but my fingers can put a tiny tune together. Well it resembles a tune at least.
